 Altered Bird cage for Barb



  My youngest son, Chad

 The altered Cigar box from the video



I am so glad you are able to come and watch the video and read my blog post today! 

I am enjoying some quiet time with Chad who is off from school today and tomorrow.  I am hoping to be able to have lunch with my precious husband, Michael tomorrow and having Chad join us is just a treat!

Speaking of food, I'm hungry!  I know thanks for sharing . . .   Onto Craft related things.

The bird cage was origionally orange.  I sanded it down and painted it with a blue craft paint.  I even painted the light wires and cord to match.  The bid is the bird with vine, cut away from the bottom and side pieces and re-layered on a fabric covered base and some paper shreds.   It is embellished with some stick pins and flowers from Recollections. It is very pretty lit up and offers a small "night" light.  My best friend, Barb loved the piece and it is now at home with her.

Chad is a very handsome young man and I really appreciate him taking his time to film my video's.  So, I thought I would take a few moments and tell him "thanks man" and post his handsome picture!

A couple of corrections Things are "painted" not "ink or inked", I'm sure you'll pick up a couple more obvious errors in communication.  I had a bit of a headache when I filed this one, and unfortunately it shows.


Have a great Tuesday, stamp happy and be a blessing!
