Lazy Days

Yesterday was my lazy day.  The weather was beautiful.  I played with photos, saw a movie, and just chilled.  Oh, and I made over a little basket.



This is one of the vintage willow baskets I found a little while ago.




I added a few of my fabric roses, and stiffened them like I did with my shabby frame. I spray painted the entire thing, brushed it with gesso, laid some lavender inside and took pretty pictures outside.








See ya later.

    That turned out so pretty! Of course, it goes without sayng, that I love the colors you used (white and purple). The fabric roses really transformed that basket. Glad to hear that you took some R&R time out for yourself.
