One Pear Please


This post is about how I manage to realize my ideas.
You will soon learn that my middle name is Stubborn and for a good reason.
I like some challenge along the way. There's always a good chance something beautiful will be created.

The Idea


 The idea was to create play food , for my girls to play with in their little kitchen. By now, my girls think I can make anything they want. Ha...nothing like a challenge from my own kids right?
So we went on a little shopping spree and came home with a bag full of pears, apples, tomatoes, one lemon and one pumpkin. Let the fun begin!

The process

Chair-Easy Fix

Sometimes projects show up in my back yard, like this chair.
My friend asked me if I could do something about this chair and fix it.So she dropped it off in my back yard. Beauty!!!I didn't even have to drive to Goodwill for a project(the junk/treasure stash in the basement doesn't count, or the garage , or the Art room. or....you get it.)
To be honest with you I couldn't wait to put my hands on it. The job was done in couple of hours.
Here is the before and the after shots:
