Yarn Bomb - Vintage Chair

Atlanticfest is this weekend! So, I am trying to get everything ready.

This is a project that I've been wanting to do for a while, a yarn bombed vintage chair.

The chair actually features the colors I use for my hats and custom orders.

It also includes two different types of pom poms that I offer.

LOVE how it turned out. 

The top of the chair was even woven by my husband!

He enjoyed it!

Final Painting Product

Final Painting Product!

Quite a bit of work went into this painting and I enjoyed every bit of it!

I hadn't painted in this style in quite some time. 

One thing I love about doing commissioned work, is seeing the client's face when they view it for the first time. This was no different!

This picture was actually taken by the owner after they were hung up and sent it to me. 

Because of the size of the pieces, it was hard for me to get a full picture in good lighting.

Painting Preview

Finally completed the 3 24X30 Canvas painting!

I am very pleased with the piece and cannot wait to hand it over to its owner this weekend.

Here is a sneek peek of one of my favorite parts. Stay tuned for the whole thing!

Vintage Toolbox - What do I do with it?

While attending the Junk Jubilee in the Spring here in Des Moines (a.k.a. The Best Place on Earth), 

I purchased this awesome vintage toolbox!

When I got it home my husband asked me "where is that going to go?" 

I said "I don't know....pause...but I will find a place for it!"

And I did. Of course I did, there are endless possibilities for this beauty!

It sits right by our dining room table on our console table turned buffet.
