I originally wanted to paint it white but I ran out half way through. Plan B: pink. I wanted to make it really girly and yes, it is in our bathroom - right on top of the loo (so much nicer than saying toilet). The starfish hand towels are from Pottery Barn.
I added some vintage lace on both sides. Then I printed off the French image from The Graphic's Fairy and added them to both sides using Mod Podge.I added this great Marie Antoinette image to both of the skinnier sides using Mod Podge. Once that was dry, I added the rhinestone embellishments.
Then I added some Frenchy touches inside.
This tag is actually a thank you from an Etsy purchase. I added the French script button because I accidentally ripped the tag when I added the tea-stained seam binding. Oops!
I'm really loving it and it's exactly the girly piece that I imagined it could be! Linking to The Graphics Fairy: Brag Monday and Between Naps on the Porch: Met Monday.
