Dolly high chair
My Girlfriend had this high chair when she was a little girl and gave it to my daughter. It had some sad worn out cats on it and was pretty banged up. I refinished the wood and found a great pic of little Victorian girls playing with their dolls online. I printed it and burnt the edges and then decoupouged it on. I then gave the whole thing 2 good coats of poly. It looks so vintage now. My daughter loves it.

Hope Chest Redo
Hope Chest that I redid. I sanded this thing forever and then stained it and hand painted the flowers on then gave it 3 coats of poly. Love how it turned out. It's from the 30's or 40's and I love it.

Living room wall hanging
I took some paint and edged the plates with silver. Then I spray painted 2 plates solid metallic silver. I painted the shadow boxes and distressed them a bit. (Still want to get something to put in them)
Family Tree
With $2.00 in contact paper from Dollar Store and Dollar Store Picture frames that I painted I made this family tree display for our family room. I used a Circut machine to cut out the flowers but you could also trace them from a cookie cutter and then I just cut the branches free hand.
Toy Box
Toy Box Overhaul! Found a toy box in the garbage, took it home sanded it, painted it white and then printed off pictures of toys that my husband and I and my kids have all played with and decoupaged them onto the top lid. Turned out so awesome!

Valentine's Cards for my kids classes. I took a picture of them holding their hand closed and then on the computer added the hearts and text. I sent them off to Walgreens and when I got them back I cut a small slit at the top and bottom of their hand and then slid in a tootsie roll pop sucker! They turned out awesome!
