headbands

Ok...I'm finally trying to learn how to do headbands..Since these are my first I think I'm allowed a little slack on perfection....I have great models which help the look alot..

Our friend Lauren was sweet to model for me..Thanks Lauren..

Touch up

Remember this window frame..I thought it was too boring so distressed it a little more, threw on some bling and rehung it..With a vinyl saying above it that says it all..Much better..

Failed project..Win for Anna-Mara

I saw this great idea of making a t-shirt into a cute tunic..Anna-Maria had a shirt that was stained on the bottom and I thought wow.."Let's do it." Well since I don't sew very often and am just learning, it didn't go well..But Anna-Maria has a great new apron..... I will attempt the shirt another day after another trip to the fabric store..At least I learned how to do ruffles..

last window out...

Ok..last window to refurbish.. It went from loving green to a Robin Egg's blue white wash...Now where to put it is the question..

Another fine window..

I decided to leave this window as au naturale as possible..Just a little clean up and it is ready to go...Beautiful...

Family window view

I love this project..Mom and Dad had old windows from the house they tore down and I begged them to keep them intact..After hauling all three up to Issaquah I got to work..This is the first one...I took pictures of the Salt Lake Temple doorknobs and enlarged it for this window..

I was so excited about posting this that I took the pictures with the paint was still wet..Next week I will have finished the next window project..

Let's hang

I saw this craft on Ucreate and just had to try it...The creater uses it to hang photo albums but I thought what a great use in the kitchen with recipes..My friend Sherri had given me a recipe album and the letters and I put them to good use..Love it.

I was going to use this block but it just didn't have enough flavor for me. So I went with the photo block sold at Michaels..This was the block the creater used.

a little polyurethane..a lot of shine...

On the back side I slipped in a scrap paper of a butterfly to change it up a bit..The whole bottom is on a little lazy-susan

Around and Around it goes...
