4.20.11


Tonight I made a French memo board. I had already bought 2 different kids of fabric and ribbon but needed to go to a different store to get buttons. Then I found this fabric, fell in love and had to have it. So i bought it with matching ribbon and buttons. So now I had 3 kinds of fabric with coordinating ribbon and buttons to make my Aunt and Uncle one memo board. I decided to make this one first. I love it. I love love love it, but my Aunt is afraid of color. Her walls are a light latte color, her carpets a beautiful brown (see any picture of Keira or Cooper and you'll likely see her carpet color). Her couches are brown, her recliner is brown, her dog is brown! Everything is neutrals! This would be an insane pop of color, and I don't like it in this frame so I will either re-faux finish this frame with darker tones or Ill just get a new frame. I'm still afraid she will be overwhelmed by all the color. So I'll make another one and I'll let her choose (but not now, now it is bedtime!)
