Bee happy ..... have a project

I recently picked up some brown shelves but didn't like the colour, they were too dark.

 

I sprayed the shelves white but this left me with a wooden back.

 

I decided to use some red and white spot fabric to attach to the back panel.

 

I measured, cut to size and ironed my lovely fabric.

 

Then I covered the backing board with glue and stuck the fabric on to this.

 

I then screwed the new spotty back into the edge of the shelves on the reverse.

 

I am pleased with my new shelves, red and white, one of my favourite combinations.

 

Do you like?

 

I think they will be living in the spare bedroom as this is red and white.

Bee happy ..... give a basket a good home

Out and about a little while ago we spotted a wire shopping basket dumped at the side of the road.

I decided I wanted it and gave it a good home.

It has been sat in the garage for a while but inspiration struck yesterday!

I got out my white spray paint and sprayed the basket to make it cleaner and prettier.

I then got out my trusty glue gun as I wanted to wrap the handles with pretty ribbon.

I used the glue to secure the ribbon so it didn't unravel when it was being carried.

All finished and with only one hurty on my thumb where the hot glue burnt me :(

Lots of uses for my lovely new basket.

Bee happy ....... spray some bits and bobs

Decided that this thingy bobs in the garden looked a bit sad so thought I would paint them.  I decided on an antique white and sprayed them in the garage yesterday. The weather has been too windy to spray on the garden at the moment.  I have left them in there to harden and will photo them tomorrow in all their glory!

This morning Mr Postie brought me these treats from Berry Sweet Treats as I won a giveaway she was having, they are so cute!  check out her shop on Etsy it's full of delicious things :)
