Every girl needs a little black dress!

I am getting really excited!  My niece has been building a beautiful home for the last few months and she is very close to moving in.  We have been shopping for months and making plans.  I will have so much to show you as we put this house together.  I went this weekend to do some more shopping (love spending other people's money) and I have to give you a sneak peek a couple of things that her mom and her have already made and a GREAT find we found at Goodwill this weekend.

I wish I had the before pic of this.  She purchased a dress on clearance for 6.00 I think.  It had these adorable ruffles, my sister cut it apart and made this pillow for my niece's (called "C" from now on) bed. uhhh C-UTE!!!!



C put together this adorable little frame. She got the frame from Michael's for 1.00, painted, inked, sanded,  and tore and walaaaaa she has a great sign for her home.  I love the flower, she has to teach me how to make one of those!


                                                               
                                                                      See isn't it cute!


                                                 And a little closer look, such a great gift idea.

We had to go and check out the local Goodwill, we always manage to find something we can't live without. 


Doesn't she have beautiful legs!


Her shape is gorg!


And her price...out of this world.  Just wait until we paint and chip her up!
Stay tune for more, there will be lots to show!

  1. The newspaper flower is adorable! Can't wait to see the table in all of it's painted glory. Wondering what color will be chosen.
