Bulletin Board
This bullentin board was made from an old frame, ceiling tile, and a piece of screen. It has the appearance of a chalk board. I got the inspiration for this board from my dear friend's blog My Piper Dog. It is a beautiful and functional addition to my family room.
The Layered Look
This comes from one of my favorite blogs Golightly and I thought it was extremely clever. Icannot have enough of old frames or plates. This concept is so simple, yet it makes quite an
impact.

I found this beautiful needle point at an estate sale. So much work went into this piece. I find it amazing that someone had such patience.

This is a painting of an old barn was done by my third grader Alex - I am very proud of him and I think it is adorable!
Wind Chimes
I like to create wind chimes made out of vintage objects. I scour estate sales and flea markets for items to make them. This paticular one is made out of an old sifter and antique silerware.
Exotic Pink Botanical Flower
This piece of clipart comes from the Graphic Fairies collection of free clipart. I thought it was so beautiful and made me think of spring. It's just one more print to create something beautiful. Thank you to the Graphic Fairies Web site.
