My project…all fixed!

So, in a previous post, I vented discussed a paint project I was working on that….um….wasn’t working out so good. if you are confused, read here.

Well, the good news is after an hour of scraping and sanding and several thin coats of ivory paint (using a can that did not cause a mess), I have a finished product.

I used these items:

Not so pretty….oh well! Nothing some fabulous paint can’t fix!

It is a utensil and napkin holder! I love these. I can’t stand to set utensils on the countertop when company comes over. It almost seems….dirty, you know? Anyway, what a cute find at GW for…2 bucks! Yippee!

So, a craft would not be a craft in my house without some love from my Cricut!
