1st Beadboard Project

I love beadboard! I want it all over my house! Well, all over in a pretty way. But since I am renting I cannot/willnot add it to the house. I can however, decorate with it.



I made this easy-to-make frame using beadboard, wood trim, some faux vintage keyplates and knobs.



Of course I had to paint it with my fav! Heirloom White. The trim is black. I used a walnut glaze to go over the keyplates to give is a vintage look. This frame was created as a copycat of something I saw in some magazine...wish I could remember. {If you know, please share and I will mention it}


I just love how it turned out!

I can now enjoy some beadboard, however minimal it may be.


My other recent love?


Isn't she just so pretty! I've worn her pretty much every day this past week and got a ton of compliments every time!

I need to make more!!! 


What about you? Any new recent loves?

Bloom!

Has anyone seen her? Is she away? Have you seen her online? Is she still ALIVE????

Yes, yes, I am still alive! 

I tell you, when life hits me, it hits pretty hard! But I am now back to (what I hope to be) my regular posting schedule! 

A few days ago I was able to get some crafting done and I came up with such a cute little idea. I had a frame, buttons, paper, and chipboard letters.

So I came up with this adorable BLOOM frame!


You can find this in my Etsy Shop now! I think I may have to make a second one, because I am just lovin' it!

Some Creatin' Going On!

I have been super busy with earring making, but managed to squeeze some other creatin' in. I also have another project I am working on, so excited about this one, I think it's super cute!

So here are the few things I managed to work on this week (other than earrings!) :)

This frame was need of a makeover. I actually liked the finish of it, so no spray paint was necessary for this one. Shocker, I know!
Much better with that sweet little spoon. Don't you think? My sweet momma sent me a box of vintage silverware from my grandmother. I have many more pieces. I have a project idea in my head... we'll see how it turns out. I need the time first!
Next, was this super cute nautical ring. I used one of my fabric rosettes (from the previous post) and a cute little button that was given to me in a swap.
I just love how it turned out. So much fun.
I then went on a ring making craze! I created this little beauty! A slightly different style of rose from my earrings, but still the same cuteness! Only in ring form!
You all may remember my roses from before. I decided to make this one a ring as well. See? I told you. Ring makin' craze!

All of the rings are made using an adjustable band. You may or may not see them in my shop. :)

Hopefully I will have time this week to get more creating done.

What have you created recently?
