Painted Canvas Quote

Live, Love, Ride

Canvas designed by my twelve-year old daughter, Coppi, for her room.  This perfectly sums her up!

Old & New Projects

Super Bowl Night!  (I'm trying to sound excited about that, ha ha.)  Here are some pics of upcycled items ....Enjoy!

This was an old piano bench (I think!) someone was trashing.  After a coat of blue paint with polka dots, it ended up with a new glass top on someone's porch.  

Sign I made for the AWESOME dance teachers at Joanne Collier's Studio of Dance in Rome, Ga.   

It's a 12 x 12.  

Another of my first projects....Someone was throwing out this old chair and DIGS asked that it be painted to be upcycled into a plant holder.  I never got to see it with the plant, but I was told it now has a happy home in someone's yard.  Check out DIGS and the great things they do at http://dev.digsrome.org/.
