kitchen memo board: Before/After
« on: May 12, 2007, 08:09:43 PM »
Frame: garage sale $2.00
Fabric: clearance $2.99
Ribbon and paint: leftover from other projects

This "original" Van Gogh is actually a cross stitch.  I feel bad for covering someone's hard work but I gues they didn't want it anymore!

W :oW!  That is beautiful! And I really love the fabric.  You could make them and sell them, if it is cost-effective.  I'd buy one.....I am not that crafty. :(
