Something new, finally

I've been so busy working on Christmas presents, but
I finally made time for this. It's not quite finished, I
think I might sand the edges still, but I figured I'd
post it anyway. It's like the mirror I made for my
whizzy, but bigger. This will be my new colors for
my next bedroom. I got a really beautiful bedspread
on clearance in black and cream so I figured I'd make
something to go in there.


What's nice is since I get free wood this cost under $10.
It only took 6 hours to construct, but whatever!

Any suggestions?

Any suggestions? I got this window at a yard sale
for $8 last summer and here it still sits! I did sand
it all down and I added this backing and a closure on
the side.

My original idea was to make it a jewelry display case so
I bought some hooks, then I was going to put it in Brady's
room and scrapbook some photos and antique it. I don't
know, I'm up for suggestion though, whatchya got?Then........................ my next project. I got a sewing
machine last Christmas and all I've made is a headband
and hemmed some pants. I signed up for a sewing class
that starts on Oct. 7 which I'm excited about. We'll see
what I can come up with with this. I'll keep you posted.
