    Wine Art

    I found these bowls at my folks house and asked if I could have them. I didn’t mention what I intended to do with them. I’m guessing I wouldn’t have been given the blessing to take them if mom had known I’d be breaking them.

    I put on a face shield and went to work over the outside garbage can with my tile nippers. Cutting up dishes is a messy job!

    I started with the Merlot bowl since we don’t like Merlot. It was my trial piece. I was able to figure out how the bowl would break without ruining the ones I intended to use.

    I knew I wanted to use this frame.
    It previously looked like this. It hung by the front door for several years but now my collage frame hangs in the spot. That meant it was time for a makeover.

    Thrift Store score!

    I stopped by a local thrift store today looking for snow pants for my girl. No luck with those but I did make out like a bandit with some art supplies!

    I got all you see for $6.50.

    And before anyone asks…
    No, I am not expecting another baby. Nor am I planning another wedding but I just couldn’t pass up these clear stamps. The baby set has lots of words that can be used and it was only a buck! Besides…I have yet to complete the kids baby books. I promise they will be done by graduation. Or maybe their weddings or at least by the birth of their 1st child. Hopefully in that order…

    I do still occasionally make cards so all the words will come in very handy! That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
