I had so much fun making the two of these! I am forever on the hunt for pedestal anything, and I must say that sometimes they are very hard to come by!
So, the one you see here I actually created from found objects! Can you guess what I made it from? A large wooden bowl, that has a unique scalloped rim, a neat wooden candlestick, and a wooden base from Michael's!
Ok, before I show you more of the one above, I will show you pedestal number two!
This has got to be one of my all time favorite vintgage pedestals that I've discovered! I'll show you later what she looked like when I first discovered her! I love all of the interesting curves and angles!!
And of course that's where I found this pretty French perfume label, below!
Oooh, la, la!
Aaaaah! I think I am in love!!
Here is what the vintage pedestal looked like. Still gorgeous, but I must say that I am lovin' her head to toe makeover!!
And I forgot to take a photo of the large pedestal which I created, before I painted her. So, here she is in her primed state. Some day in the near future I will do a tutorial on how you can create your very own pedestal from found objects!
So here is one last look! Have a fun weekend!

Donna, you do such a wonderful job turning the ugliest things into something so cute! Love them both. I am going to have to save up and shop your etsy.

Hi Donna!
Your pedestals are wonderful. I love the painting and the decals you've chosen.
I've noticed that even since I started following your blog that you keep getting better and better with your creations. Next thing I know you are going to be on HGTV with your own show!

Hi Donna~ What's the matter? Did you run out of objects to glitter, or what? Ok..I must say that these are very cute indeed. SOOOO much better painted white and glamorized. I have never really used any of the Graphic Fairy's prints but I know I need to spend some time there checking her stuff out. You do a wonderful job with the things you find there.
Hope your weekend is warm and cozy. I think your hubby is home this weekend? We are getting more snow tonight and it was slippery driving home from work. UGH..I am soooo over winter! Hugs- xxoo Diana
Your makeovers are always inspiring. I hope you are having a super weekend. Happy soon-to-be Valentines!!
Love both pedestals. They are so pretty. And the labels look great. Your creativity has no boundaries!! :)
Oh these are GORGEOUS, Donna!!! WOW! What a gorgeous addition to any table...and nothing this beautiful and detailed is in the stores--so these are truly "one of a kind" creations....they will "fly" off your shelf!!!

I love your bowls! I have never ever thought about lining the inside of a one. These are gorgeous! What a wonderful idea!
These are gorgeous Donna!!!! Who would have thought! Do you print your own decals and what kind of printer do you use?? Keep creating and sharing!!
