French Country Wood Tote and Album Design Team Project

I altered this wood tote, which was a gift from a friend who knows I like roosters, for my monthly design team project for The Piece by Piece. The papers and chipboard embellishments are by Graphic 45. Lace, trim, ribbon, flowers, bling, metal butterfly, and the Eiffel Tower charm are from The Piece by Piece.

See this video for an additional description of the project.

Mini Dresser Design Team Project

My design team project this month for The Piece by Piece is a Mini Dresser by KaiserCraft. After assembly, I painted the dresser with white acrylic paint, adhered patterned papers from a 6"x6" paper pad by My Mind's Eye, and created a collage with lace, an Eiffel Tower charm, bling and flowers from The Piece by Piece.

Here's a link to a video showing the project.

Buffet Design Team Project

Today I am sharing my December Design Team Project for The Piece by Piece. This month I chose to alter the Low Line Buffet by KaiserCraft using papers from My Mind's Eye and flowers mostly from Prima and Petaloo. As always, the beautiful laces, trim and resin pieces are all available from The Piece by Piece.

Here is a link to the video of this project.
