Today we're headed West................to Asheboro, home of the North Carolina Zoo. Meeting friends there and hoping for a fun day out, lunch with the animals, and dinner in Tuscany, well that's the name of the restaurant we plan to try this evening!
My friend, who always picks out the sweetest gifts for me ~ such as fabulous bunny slippers and that gorgeous iron card holder for the wall I showed at Christmas ~ will hopefully enjoy this Spring gift I made to take to her today.
I found these large wooden French Provincial style hangers in a vintage shop last Fall and have started playing around with them. I added French words by rubber stamping, a small lavender bag, assorted ribbons, a silk rose, and my latest fun thing ~ tea dyed cheesecloth, torn and shirred, twisted!
Hi Mary! Have a fun day. I had to giggle when you said you were having lunch with the animals. :) I am sure you will enjoy your time with friends and even more sure your friend will love her handmade gift from you. It is just beautiful!

ReplyDeleteMary, I hope you have a wonderful day. It sounds like great fun.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure your friend will love her gift. It is beautiful, and I love your inclusion of the cheesecloth.
Gorrrrrgeous!!! I have to learn a craft. I bought a couple stamps at Michaels - got to get started somewhere. You did a beautiful job with that hanger, Mary. I love the one I bought at SuzAnna's...hmmm, I may try stamping something on it...what do you think?
ReplyDeleteHave a most wonderful day trip at the zoo and Tuscany and with your friends.
Love,
Deborah

I hope you had a great day. With the name of the restaurant, I think you'd almost be assured of a very good meal.
