Miss Lonely Bench

Miss lonely bench came into our home one year ago from a garage sale. It rained that morning and I  didn't know if any of the garage sale was still going to happen. But since the rain ended early we headed out and tried our luck. We visited about 5 sales and this was going to be the last house that we were going to see before we headed home. (kids don't like getting in and out of their car seat a dozen times in one day, They get cranky)

Then I saw miss lonely bench sitting in a corner...

She looked so lonely

She needed a friend

I brought her home for $5. When she came home she was moved from corner to corner and we didn't dress her up right away. She was still lonely for a whole year until today.

She got a wax, a cleaning, touch up and then she got dress.

Hope she looks good.

Touch up on those legs

Like her dress?

She cost $5, but now she looks like a million bucks...  :)

I am having this fascination with flowers. 

From pins, to headbands to flowers on clothes... 

At first it looked like it was so much work but as you get a hang of it it was so easy and fun to make. 

Flower pins

Got this idea from Cute as a fox creation.

I wish I had a little girl that I can dress up with these flowers....
