Oh my goodness! Today was an uber (I know I said uber) fabulous day at GW, 50% off Sale!! Of course the place was jammed to the rafters with shoppers looking for good deals -- just like me! I still managed to score some fabulous finds. While dodging shopping carts I saw 2 adorable wooden trays, for $1.99 each with 50% off; I grabbed them. When I got home, inspiration struck -- I jumped over to the Graphics Fairy, (love that blog) and printed off the "Hare" that was right on the front page, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE rabbits. Then my daughter and I talked about Frenchy words for the slightly larger tray. We found one we liked -- but the creative process took over! We changed our minds and found a really pretty Hydrangea we liked better. 2 prints of the Hydrangea later we were so carried away being "creative" we did not take before pictures -- but you are all so crafty (the good kind of crafty) you know what I did. Spray painted one tray "Oregano" and used a Cream Craft Paint on the other. Then my new BFF Modge Podge my daughter and I got to work sticking down the images. I think I still may antique them, and I'm considered adding a touch of glitter to the Hydrangea but I'm not sure -- I want to be able to use the trays too, what do you think?
Anyway, without further ado . . . here they are!!
the rabbit one
the Hydrangea one (sorry about the flash glare)
both together
(didn't my daughter do a good staging and photo job?)
So much fun for a President's Day Monday! A little creative outlet, some together time with my youngest and 2 adorable additions to my home!
Thanks for stopping by, as always; I love the company : )

Oh I love them both. The Hare is wonderful and the Hydrangeas are gorgeous. What a great idea. I love the Graphic Fairy also, so much to choose from and all just fabulous. Welcome to blogland and thanks so much for joining TTT. Hugs, Marty
