My Pear Urns!

Well I finally got them done last night. They are not exactly how I want them but when you only have your local Wal-Mart craft section to work with, this is what you get. So the next time I get out of this puney little no where to shop for cute crafts town I am picking up some bigger gingham ribbon, because I just know they are screaming for something a little wider. I also might change out the twiggy stuff but that's another day. Oh! I will be changing out the pears for pumpkins come fall as these little babies are ever so versatile! Anyway 1 project down & many to go soon I will be tackling large furniture pieces with a paint brush & black paint. I'm pretty sure that I have Lloyd scared out of his tighty whiteys & wondering where he went wrong with me. Trust me I will be posting pictures. I know you all just can't wait. Oh and my thanks go out to Joys of Home for inspiring my total copy of her cute urns. Granted I love♥ her urns more, but you gotta admit I am so good at copying cute ideas!

  1. It's okay that you copied my pear urns, cuz now I'm going to steal your "I'm a skinny girl trapped in a curvy body" line. Love It!
    Oh, and you did copy one other thing of mine. I also have a son, older than yours, with the name of Parker.
    I'm flattered!!!

  2. Hi there! Found you...somehow. Just wanted to say that we have LOTS in common. I love movies, I love 80's music, and I even made VERY similar gifts for my kids' teachers. We're friends, and we didn't even know it! ;-)

  3. super cute! Don't u just love creative people who allow you to "Borrow" their ideas!
    Super Super cute! i don't think that they need wider gingham. I like them that way. I think if you put any wider, it would detract from the cuteness.
    I know what you mean about the black pait. Just wait until you see my post tomorrow. You will want to use that paint even more! Ha!! I have learned that it is always easier to ask forgiveness than permission. DuH! That is why my marraige has survived as long as it has!

  10. So I found you through a comment you left about your pear urns and I had to come and see them. I think that they turned out darling! Then I checked out your school gifts and VT gifts and now I am going to copy you. Aren't you lucky? :) Cute blog. I am marking this one to check again.
