Hiding Mistakes {Latest Signs}

My blond moment made this one of my favorite signs!  So yeah.  Those rolled fabric rosettes you see there?  They actually weren't originally intended for this sign.  You see, they are a result of this:
So rather than yanking out the little guys and trying to repair the damage... I decided to get crafty and just cover it up.  Pretty cute solution, I'd say!  Nobody will ever know......  except you of course.  Shhh!

And here are a few more I finished up this week on the wonderful cupboard doors a friend from the cheese state gave me.  I love it when people think of me before they get rid of their "junk"! :)
Since there was a hole on the cupboard doors from where the knobs had been, I figured it'd make a cute spot to hang something and for this one I used these curtain finials I got for 25 cents!  
I never go into Bed Bath and Beyond unless I see one of those extra 75% off bins.  Then it's usually well worth meandering into the store!

Yeah, here's another attempt at hiding my mistakes.  Didn't get the spacing right on my words, so I tried to sneak in a few stencils to mask it.... not sure if it worked or not!  Oh well, we'll see if someone buys it, eh? :)

These are all for sale at Fabulous Darling in Brooklyn, MI.  Stop in if you're in the area!!

  3. I love the rosettes, Kammy! They look like they were meant to be on there. I totally understand about hiding mistakes sometimes. I had to do the same thing on a little suitcase I just made over.
