Ikea frame make over

I love how these turned out! I used some ikea frames that I got at a garage sale. I painted them with Rust O leum Caribbean sands spray paint. They feel sandy. :) the paint didn't work quite the way I planned but that's okay. The people at Rust oleum were great to work with.
Anyway, I glued seashells, stones from the dollar store, and "kitchen twine" round them and added some vacay pix from SanDiego. Simple Sunday afternoon project!

from this to that! :-)  (of course since my phone put the pix in backwards - I guess its more like "this FROM that" :-)

Bungled J ungle

Some of you may remember my jungle bungle blocks from the dots on dots hop last september. I made them for elephant appreciation day as well as Dots on Dots.  My friend Melissa really liked them and joked that *if* she had another baby, she would like this Quilt.  About a month later we found out she was expecting. She likes surprises so we didn't know what this baby was until the birth date. I planned on using the aquas if it was a girl and adding the darker blue and yellow if it was a boy- as you can see - it is a boy!  I was hoping to have it done for his shower but the shower is on Saturday so that isnt happening. but it will be done soon.:-)
