It's My Turn! Bowls With Borders Blog Hop

August 15, 2012

Have you been checking out the great Bowls With Borders projects? Aren't they great?! I am humbled to be a part of a group with such talent and creativity. 

Without further adieu, here is my contribution for the Bowls With Borders Blog Hop....

When the blog hop was first announced, I knew exactly what I wanted to make. This vintage kitchen cabinet had just found its way into our home and it needed a little dressing up. 


Apparently my wall needed some dressing up, too. See the little dirt smudge? Ooops. =D


*Ahem* Moving on...

The flowers. Aren't they darling? I love them! You can find the how-to on Marie-Madeline Studio. They are quick and easy and added just the right touch for my bowls. =)


Make sure you visit the rest of today's Bowls With Borders contributors. =D

A big thanks to the amazing Madame Samm, for all of her hard work to make these blog hops happen. 

And a super big thank you to my new friend, Carol, for being the perfect and gracious hostess for the blog hop. 

If you are interested in making your own bowls, you can buy the pattern from Regina.

Until next time...Happy Bowl Hopping!
