Picture this!

Lately, I've been on a photo display kick. This afternoon, I found a frame that I had left in the workshop and decided to do something with it. My husband says it is HIS shop. Whatever. I would rather that he claim the kitchen.

Since I have a suitcase full of doileys and laces, I sorted through them until I found one that was a suitable size. I draped it over the wire on the frame, fanned it out and stapled it to the frame. I like the look. I will most likely make more of these.
Before my shopping trip to Warrrenton, I saw a door mortise used as a little shelf on Becky's blog so I added them to my mental shopping list. This one was bigger and a little different than the others. It looked like a great place to attach a photo. I love shopping up there. I wish that I lived closer. If I did, I would be there every day it's open. (except when it is killer hot)

In the pink

You know it's hot when you step out of the workshop and it actually feels cool outside. That's what I braved to put this shelf together. I really wanted to see it finished so I put up with the sweltering heat. I made this shelf using 1 x 4's and an 18" x 22" old frame, painted it Pepto Bismol pink, then dry-brushed it with white. Yep, I am a woman who knows how to use power tools. Move over, Norm!
