Shop Pics and More Burlap Love....

Just thought I'd share a few new things, I just added in my little space, down at Viking Village....

I'm kind-of pleased with the Parisian theme I got goin on.  :)

I'm sure you recolonize the "French Bench" or "Settee" ( I just did a post on how I refinished it).

I covered the seat with some awesome burlap fabric...

So I deiced to make an Altered Clipboard to match.

Can you believe I found some burlap looking paper?  :)

Of course the writing wasn't in french so...

 I added a couple of my favorite prints from The Graphic Fairy...

Just to make it look a little more Frenchy.

I also made an bulletin board from an old frame that I painted white, then Shabbied up...

using left over fabric from the settee to cover the board.

Here it sitting on the table I picked up at that awesome barn sale...

I have been trying to layer more down at the shop...

Using ideas I've picked up on pinterest and many of your lovey blogs...

I do think I'm getting better.

Anyway that's it for now

Two more weeks till my son graduates High School...I better get back to work....YIKES!!

French Bench

Here's a little cutie that I just finished and droped off at my space tonight...Isn't she darling?  I don't usually brag about my things but I just love this piece!  :)

Here's her before pic...not bad but she didn't sell and I had originally planed on painting her anyway....I just put her in the shop until I had the time.

 I painted her with several coats of homemade chalk paint and then added these wonderful images from; The Graphic Fairy.  You can find an easy tutorial on how to do this here.

The fabric is burlap from Jo-Ann's...That I purchased with a 40% off coupon...Of course!

(I also plan on using the fabric, to make a matching bulletin board, out of a vintage frame)

I know that you will probably never see the back but doesn't the vintage postage stamp look great?

And I must say it is so nice to be able to take pictures in my garden again...Yea Spring!!
XXXOOO
