I Made a Dubya

A friend of mine has a pretty great blog where she posts all her crafty ideas, and she has many.  She showed us how to paint paper machete letters/numbers.  The ones at Hobby Lobby were a bit smaller than I wanted, so I grabbed one of their larger, gold letters (If you find a cracked one, you can pay $5 instead of $10 for it) and did the paint job on it to make it look like rusted Anthropology sink letters. You want one?  She'll show you how, here.

Also, I'm so bad at decorating.  I find something I think is cool, but I have no idea how to use it.  I got this window frame at an antique store a few years ago.  Why in the world?  I thought it was neat.
I'm finally putting a W in front of it.  I used to just have a window frame on a wall shelf.  My sister-in-law is a master at pottery and she made us that awesome bowl.
I still have so many spaces that are just empty because I don't know what to put there.  More "W"s!

Amanda- I always love your posts. You have the best dry and witty humor. "More W's" made me laugh!

I need a "W" but I will not make it for myself. And my decorating skills are much more limited than yours. Someday when you see my house you will laugh a little bit. Cool W, and that window is awesome.
