~My Shabby Little Cottage~



So the Word is that we can start sharing some of our CHA-S projects on our blogs...as long as they DON'T have new release product on them! So with permission given, I thought I would share my little cottage I made!


I used the Villa house...and a bunch of other fun stuff!! For the roof I took the scalloped book (after I painted it and shabbied up the edges!) and cut off strips of scallops and just used Fabri-tac to glue them down. I cut pieces of the vine scrolls from the Vineyard set and made vines up the walls...added the flowers (also from the Vineyard Set) after stamping a pattern on them (Thank you my friend Wendy for knowing exactly what they needed!!), sanded MR buttons, threaded them and I have a country garden!! The fence was something I bought years ago in the wood section at a craft store...painted it also! It needed a little something else...so I added the hat pins and the rub-on butterflies (also MR)! Anyway, enough rambling....!!
