A New Adventure.

Remember this past Christmas when I made these for my son's teachers? Well I got soo many compliments  on them and soo many people telling me I should sell um that it got me to thinking. I have been making baby items for geez over 6 years now. The boys have grown and I frankly am not as into making baby stuff anymore. Sad I know cause baby stuff is too stinkin cute but my interest have swayed more towards decorating. 

So with that being said this week I have been working on things like turning a plaining gold frame into this.

I am truly in love with how it turned out!

The birds are two dimensional so they pop off the frame.

I wanted to give the frame more of an aged antique feeling. There are three differ colors at play here along with some anitiquing glaze and Rub N Buff.

A wonderful 4x6 frame just in time for  Spring decorating!  If I get enough request I will start listing my frames in my Etsy shop. Just testing the waters right now.

Linking up to Savvy Southern Style Boring to Better Party! Also don't forget to enter my Paula Deen Give Away! As always thanx for stopping by y'all!:)

This week has been super busy but now that I am caught up I want to extend a HUGE thank you to y'all!! I am super excited to have over 200 followers now!! I am truly honored that y'all  enjoy stopping by so much!

Do any of ya remember last April when Ms. Paula Deen came to Cocstco?? You can read more about it here if ya missed that post. While I was chatting with Ms. Paula I asked her to sign something special especially for y'all! I was not sure she would since she was just there signing her decorating book but she graciously agreed!

Here she is signing that something special! I have been holding off on giving it away for two reasons. One was for a special occasion and well 200 + followers is pretty darn special to me. The second is well um when Paula finished up signing the magazine she well um smudged it when she handed it back!:(  I have debated for almost a year now on what to do. I was super excited to have it but then I was torn on whether anybody would now want it. I finally came to the conclusion that if any of ya are die hard Paula fans ya would not care!:)

So here is that magazine in all of its glory!

The winner will also receive this Paula Deen recipe card organizer and a pack of adorable Paula Deen recipe cards!
All ya have to do to win is leave me a comment telling me how much ya want this set.
