Burlap Heart Picture

 
 
 
 
I thought I would never get this heart picture done. But here it is. I wish I wouldve taken more pictures on how I made this. I do love the simplicity of it. The wood frame was salvaged from the bottom of a box that a dishwasher came in. I couldnt throw it away. I saw the possibilities, LOL!! Next I had some painters drop cloth laying around, cut it up to fit the frame. Stapled it down in the back. Added some furniture tacks around the frame. The burlap flowers where made in advance. Did I mention I love burlap too. So now this picture frame is mounted on my living room wall.



Shabby Chic Flower Centerpiece

 
 
 
 
I got this old tin can, painted it with spray paint. Next I glued burlap around it. I added some lace to make the burlap stand out more. Added my own muslin fabric flowers. I love muslin fabric. You can make just about anything with it. I wrapped strands of pearls around the tin can. Last but not least I top the tin can with some artificial flowers. Voila!!! My own Shabby Chic centerpiece. I love it.

Wreaths


Hello everyone this is my first post. I have never done this before, so please give me a little break if I go coo-coo from time to time. What I hope to get out of blogging is to help, and share some of my crafting experiences. I have a passion for this stuff. So why not share it? Making shabby chic wreaths have been my latest thing. You could say "Wreath Crazy." hahahaha! Here are a few of my wreaths. I hope you enjoy.


Love all the lace.



One of my favorites!!!
