I LOVE taking what appears to be junk and turning
it into something fabulous! My husband loves the
results but hates to participate in the “finding” of
such treasures! We drove past this beauty nearly
twenty times over a span of two weeks and every
time we passed it I drooled, and every time my
hubby stepped on the gas. Well, I finally found
myself driving on my own one day and I scored!
I felt triumphant! Then it sat on the back porch all
winter long. See, here in Flag I am restricted by
season as to when I can paint.
{ Insert your imagination Here}
This is where I was supposed to but the glorious pre-
picture of my “trash” It was great! A dirty white wicker
frame with a splash of blue stain across one side.
Can you picture it? Pretty trashy right. Okay, I will
explain. I have been going through a lot of emotional
turmoil the last six months and well, I have somehow
lost my picture along with my mind. So use your imagination
and enjoy the following post-pics. they are good too.
It just looses it’s “wow” factor without the before photo. Sorry folks.
The phrase is from one of my favorite songs I sing to my son.
It makes a big statement on a very blank wall of our home.
With it’s size I think I may add more fabric flowers to it so that
it balances out more.
I made the two roses by rolling old rick-rack around itself, and
the larger flower was from the sleeves of an old sweater!
The frame was from what looked like an old vanity. Between
paint and the thin fiber board for the back this project
cost me around 6 bucks! Can’t beat that!
Oh BTW, the flowers are removable! I attached wire to the
back of the flowers and then wedged the “stem” in the frame.
This way I have the option of changing the accents by the season.
