Bonjour, Mes Amis!

How is your day going?

Today I wanted to share with you my latest creation for my Etsy shop.  Of course in my excitement, I forgot to take a "before" shot!

Just imagine a boring, plain brown mail sorter. 

The kind you wouldn't give a second glance.

Well, once I spotted her, I just knew that she deserved better.............

 I knew right off the bat that I wanted to paint her my favorite shade of creamy white

(big surprise, I know!).

After a bit of distressing, I then decoupaged vintage sheet music to the front of each pocket.

Since I was going for a shabby chic look, what would be more appropriate than roses?

So I headed on over to the Graphics Fairy, and found these lovelies.

Cutting them out by hand was a bit of work, but fun, too!

 I decoupaged a different design to each front, as well as a pretty rose to the very top.

 Again, I sure wish that I hadn't neglected to take a before shot.  She was none too lovely!!

 I think she is so much happier with her makeover.

Just look at those curves:)

 Thanks for stopping by!

Remember, all it takes is a little imagination, and maybe a bit of paint and Mod Podge, to

give something an entirely new look!
