Turning Three

These past few week I've been getting ready for my daughter's Birthday Party. Being that this was to be the first party at the house I wanted to do something special for her. That is when I thought of a special birthday crown. So I googled B-day crowns to get inspired. Well, I was so inspired I created this pretty crown. I made this crown with some fabric, vintage wallpaper, silk flowers, and a pink glass thrift shop broach. Glitter is very good thing for a little girl, you can never have enough, and pretty butterflys made out of wraping paper. I also added a string of featheres on the inside to soften the edges. I had so much fun that I'm in te process of making more to sell. The vintage wall paper I used as a lining is goin to be the feature this time.

I also wanted a chandelier for my daughter's bedroom but couldn't find what I was looking for. But as it so happens I was at the local thrift store when I spotted this 70's glass plated hanging lamp, but I saw potential. I removed the glass plates and then painted it pink. I then drilled some holes in the candle cups and at the top. I wired some crystals and strung some beads and crystals and, Voila! Pretty crystal chandelier. The picture was taken in the basement where it was made. As soon as it is hung I'll take a photo of the finished job with newly painted walls and a silver stamped boarder.
