I think you can tell from my photos that, yes, it's another rainy, dreary day in NY. I'm getting a little frustrated being stuck in the house - especially when I have a ton of projects planned that need spray paint. Sigh! Still, I did manage to whip up this petite Marie Antoinette pillow before the weather put me in a funk. I hand-stamped the French script and Eiffel Tower postmark first using black ink. ...
