Fleur de Lis Travertine Tile Coaster Set



These were super easy and super fun to create. I picked up a gorgeous set of Ivory Travertine Stone Tiles from the local Tile Shop and added black vinyl fleur de lis decals that I purchased from santasgiftshoppe http://www.etsy.com/shop/santasgiftshoppe?ref=ss_profile. Next I attached four circular felt pads onto the back of each coaster to protect the furniture from being scratched (I have a seven year old that likes to play with everything as though it were a demolition car). And finally, I added a protective seal to each for long lasting durability. There you have it Mon Ami, instant French Chic! http://www.etsy.com/listing/79663044/fleur-de-lis-coaster-set

Stackable Shabby Cottage Chic Trinket Boxes



Love the way these turned out. I picked up three balsa wood craft boxes, attached a brass rose applique to each and then painted them all a soft Cottage Robins Egg Blue. The finishing touch - lightly disressing with some course sandpaper. Instant storage containers!http://www.etsy.com/listing/78752856/shabby-cottage-chic-robins-egg-blue

His and Hers Mr and Mrs Matching Tea Towel Set

http://www.etsy.com/listing/78574084/mr-and-mrs-matching-set-of-dish-tea





This started out as a Bridal Shower Gift and I had so much fun creating this set that I have since added it to my shop offering. I purchased a set of gorgeous waffle weave Food Network dish towels and a set of incredibly clear and defined digital images from Graphique (http://www.etsy.com/shop/Graphique) as well as a package of Avery iron on transfer paper. I downloaded the images, printed them on to the transfer paper, ironed them and presto, instant Bridal Shower gift. I absolutely love the way that they turned out and hope that the Bride to Be is just as thrilled.
