I'm on aroll.......

OH man, can you guess which room I am taking you into today?
I would never have thought that I would have gone with these colors..........but it started out with finding the shower curtain on ebay..........fell in love with it and from there it took off..........
I had made this piece of art a long long long long long long time ago........and when I was finished with it, my husband, at the time, made a comment that it would never sell........so I just put it away in my craft room and forgot about it.............my daughter comes for a visit, sees it and falls in love with it.........I come to live with them and gently claim it back for my bathroom.........what can I say. Technically it is still hers, I am just borrowing it until I leave.........

Do any of you remember when this all got started........coloring on fabric, man it was fun......and relaxing. Did you know that coloring is one of the most relaxing things you can do? Well it is.

Next is the window in the bath tub/shower combo.........had the berries from my own house and they were the right color, purchased the pretty white curtains (they are crisp and white......love it)


Last, but surely not least, is this area.............my sil says if a wall is blank anywhere around me, that I just HAVE to put something on it..........thinking this is a true statement. I bought the French picture at Old World Market (another fun place to visit) and framed it myself, the sign was purchased on my last trip to Gruene (remember it is pronounced Green) with my older friend this spring........the hanger was purchased at Hobby Lobby, when they were 50% off......so all in all it was a very economical setting........


So there is my powder room........what do you have in yours? I hope someone shares........

OMG I LOVE that shower curtain. It is just what I've been looking for. Can you tell me the name or who makes it so I can hunt for it on eBay too. I so want one.

Oh and gumpaste is made from sugar but it's sort of like PlayDo to work with. It gets really hard and will last for a few years if you don't break them. Cake Decorators use gumpaste.

You could eat it but it wouldn't taste good at all.

You dust the flowers with petal dust. You can find gumpaste and petal dust at Cake Decorating supplies in tons of colors.

You could make these flowers if you had the right cutters and someone showed you how. They are easy with the right supplies. Anyone could make them.

Hugs,
Joanne
