I don't mind telling you that she sold for $75...not bad for my original investment of $5.99! I really hated to see this go, but I don't have twin beds in my guestrooms anymore, so it had to go to make room for other projects!
Carry on...I
In case you don't remember my last project using one of Polly's cabinet doors, I will refresh your memory...this cute little wine tray:
Since then I completed another tray using the same image but the original wording and adding a couple of flourishes:
Next I decided that I want to make some message boards. For this one I used the same image that is on the bed. I bought the knobs from Hobby Lobby when they were 50% off...perfect for hanging dish towels or keys. The handle on the top is one that I picked up from Restore...it was painted using Rustoleum Flat Black. I purchased a package of 4, 12 x 12 pieces of cork board from JoAnns and cut to size.
The second one I used a Valspar sample paint from Lowe's. I purchased these knobs from Hobby Lobby and painted both of those plus the handle with Rustoleum Oil Rubbed Bronze. The image is another that I purchased from Graphique.
And last but not least, I actually have a few cookies to share.
Last night was the teacher "meet and greet" for Thomas. Believe it or not, he will be returning to school next week! What better way to butter up your new teacher than with a little cookie bouquet!
till next time...

There's a skinny girl who lives inside of me that's screaming to get out...I can usually shut her up with cookies!
