Welcome to my blog! Yes it is that time again. Another Monday is here and time for Show and Tell at Make Mine Pink and at Janet's Creative Pillows.
I have been working on many different things all week. Sewing new pillows, redecorating my bedroom and living room and more,but for today I will share a fun little project I did this week. I have a passion for painting ever since I can remember. Well last weekend I went to a thrift store and found this head form and knew instantly that I had to have it. I couldn't wait to paint a face on it.
I used a soft peach color for the skin color. Black for her eye brows and hair and even her beauty mark. ;-) Then I painted her lips a pretty pink color. She already had a black top so I only changed the wording and painted white bows around the edge. And finally added a straw hat with pink roses. I'm pretty happy with the result if I may so myself. I hope you like it too. I am going to find a nice spot in my home for Bella.
| Thank you so much for visiting and I do hope you stop by again next week! See you then.... ;-)
