thrifty believe sign

i made this believe sign, from a moses basket rocker





 before it was part of a moses basket rocker, but i didnt want to throw it away as i knew it could be useful


i took it apart, and painted it black, then i painted a layer of crackle paint on top and waited for it to dry.



then i painted a layer of white paint on top of the crackle paint, then this made the black paint underneath

then i put it on top of my mirror,

  3. Every week I end up back here admiring your projects! I think it's from a different link party everytime. I must be drawn to your work - or we share similar taste!

    Once again, it would be amazing if you would link this to my Christmas link party happening now at:
