Inspired

I've been inspired by my creative cousins to turn some fantastic finds into some priceless decorations for my house. They've now taken their craftieness to the World Wide Web! Introducing - Shanty2Chic!


My first creation were cabinet doors (Thanks Missy!) that I crackle painted and embellished. I'm still trying to decide where to hang them, but I love the way they turned out.



I've got a few other projects in the works--cabinets for the girls' bathroom, picture frames and old shutters. I'm not sure exactly what they will turn into, but I know the finished product will be great! I also just spotted 2 chairs in front of a house down the street that I'm going to nab before the trash men pick them up tomorrow! One will be my new desk chair and I think one will go in Karsyn's room.

The doors are AMAZING! You are going to have to teach me how to do that! I checked out your cousins' website (followed the link on your mom's blog) and the crafting talent definitely runs in your family! I'm so inspired to do a new crafty project!
