I picked up this silver urn at our local church thrift store last week. (Is it an urn or an ewer - I'm not sure so someone please correct me if I'm calling it by the wrong name.) Anywho, I love, love, love having bird's nests and eggs through out my house. Put two and two together and you get this: I added some faux nest material to the urn and added the three eggs...
I just loved the menu holder Jane from Mamie Jane's made a couple of weeks ago. I knew I wanted to use the same menu image she used from the Graphics Fairy and when I came upon this letter holder on Friday, I knew it would be a perfect match: I spray painted it pink and then used sandpaper to shabby up the edges.

It was a navy blue color originally and I had planned to stencil a Yankees logo on it for my son's room but he wasn't feeling it. Skip to plan B and you get this lovely robin's egg colored toolbox: This project really was a pain in the you-know-what. First I painted it white and tried to...
While dreaming of Paris earlier today, I wondered what it would be like to be a guest at a rustic, charming hotel there. Would they have those dopey electric card keys or an actual metal key. Since I doubt I'll find out any time soon, I made this little guest room key: I love, love, love this image from the Graphics Fairy (in fact, I used it on a pair of new items in my...
