Random Winter Projects

 

My favorite thing about winter is knowing that spring is next...

Okay, I admit to being the pessimist that came up with the quote but winter is just not my favorite season. Oh, it has it’s good points… snowflakes, hot chocolate and (my mind just went blank).

One of my highlights in December is the shortest day, which just was..the 21st. I can now think every day is a little longer than the one before.

I’ll share some of the projects I’ve had going on the past month or so..nothing major, just something to pass the time.

I had some sign orders to fill…

I decorated the church tree using blues and whites. The tree was a very artificial green which I fixed using snow spray, giving it a frosty look…

I’ve been pretty busy at times with “garden parties” (as I still call them, though they are now indoors)

We made a room divider so my guests would have a little more privacy…

Just yesterday I finished painting kitchen cabinets for someone that had started doing it on their own when they found out they are getting two little boys to foster!

I’ve never done kitchens with red paint, so this was a first for me! This is a retro look where most of the other kitchens I’ve done are a little more country.

I really had an eye on these cute little benches in their kitchen…
