Tiny Little Bird's Nest Painting
I had some little plastic frames with pictures printed on fabric within them. They didn't really "go" with my house (see small photo at left), so what to do with them? I decided to paint the frame and fabric pink, and then paint a little bird's nest on it. Then I took the word's "Bird's Nest" from a vintage book, and added them above the nest.
Blue sheer ribbon for hanging finished off the project.
(Karla gave a great tutorial for painting bird's nest, if you'd like to give it a try yourself! If not, this one's available in my Lollishops. :)
Thanks for all the lovely comments on our frou-frou bathroom. To answer your questions, yes hubby is allowed to use it!! He is really great about putting up with all my pretties. As for the robin's egg soap, I got that on our trip to CO last year ~ we were tight on space, so I was buying small things to bring back!
Some of you mentioned you'd just want to stay in that bathroom and relax ~ let me tell you a little secret...... If no one else is around, I can leave the bathroom door open, and you can see the bedroom fireplace from the bathtub ~ so you can have a bubble bath and enjoy the fireplace at the same time!! It is heavenly!!

Yours turned out sweet! And what a pretty frame, I like the ribbon laced through the holes that way.
It is so cute. What a great frame redo and I LOVE the added text.
This is a great idea. I have some things I need to paint.

So cute... I did something similar by painting a frame but instead of painting a picture I framed a card of vintage pink buttons. It is so pretty!
To comment again... I love your bathroom!!

What a precious transformation on your pic...I love altered art.
I went from imagining taking a bubblebath in your tub looking at the fireplace ... to ...LOL at the idea of you in the tub with your camera taking a pic of your roaring fire in the fireplace for your fellow bloggers.
It turned out beautifully!!!
Very good! You are so talented.
I gave you an award. You don't have to do anything if you have gotten it already.
What a pretty re-do...and the blue sheer ribbon is a perfect touch...hugs, Linda
Love your little pictures. Of course, anything with a nest catches my eye! Very sweet!
Have a wonderful day,

Love your makeover of the little picture. Looks so sweet.
Sounds heavenly looking out to the fire from the bath.

I think that your painted frame is so pretty! Isn't it amazing the things that we can make pretty...things that we already have with just a little paint and imagination? Have a great day!
Just adorable!!!!!
