I finally got my act together I added the final touches on the this project for the bedroom. I actually mixed the gray paint up from some left over cream colored wall paint & some black that I purchased for another project. The red is actually some acrylic paint that we had since forever ago. I sprayed it with a high gloss protector spray.
Yay! another project finally completed!

one pink, one blue

And for the the small price of $1 a piece. How I love garage sales :)

beads. my one long lasting passion.

This MADE tutorial is going on my to-do list.

The fifth day of spring

 Right now I'm bombarded by lovely spring-like pictures. Blossoming trees, floral dresses & sun. Well I too have beautiful things to photograph these days...just of a different sort.

The wind has been nasty, hence the hoar frost only on the one side of the branches.

The rabbits must be having lots of fun after dark as there are bunny tracks all over. Their fur is changing from white to brown which surely is a sign that we can expect the snow to be gone soon & leave us with....brown grass!

So cool. Just using a random date or perhaps using the birth date of the occasion that the gift will is intended for...

First I found this amazing way to transform a globe light with paper strips.

Then this one which is actually wax paper circles sewn together to cover an old wire fixture.

 And finally...

The middle one was actually a rendition of this gorgeous one. This one uses strips of ribbon & I must say that the idea of sewing them together instead would save a huge portion of the money for the project. I will have to look for a circle cutter before embarking on this project.
