"White Wednesday"
and "Transformation Thursday"

Bella (dress form) is getting ready for a soldering class that I will be teaching this Saturday. Looking forward to see old students and new ones. In the mean time I built a divider for my self. The divider is made out of remnants from cabinets that I am building for Jackie.

I started with 12" wide x 6 feet MDF.

Made a pattern with paper and traced it on the wood and used the jig saw to cut the curves.

I do make my own applique so I have the fortune to produce as many as I need and play with it. I have some for sale on etsy too.

Two coats of cream eggshell paint, 4 hinges and voila'. I have a room divider.

Next I had two cabinet doors and I decided to make chalk board out of it. They remind me of the menu boards.




I am linking to Kathleen's blog to celebrate White Wednesday.

Ciao for now
