I hope that you had a blessed Thanksgiving holiday
surrounded by loving friends and family!
I counted my blessings
and YOU are certainly one of them.
Thank you all for your kind words and sweet friendship!

| Yeah....I love ya MUCH more than this..... |
Now....the diet begins in earnest
[ugh...]
as well as a bunch of Christmas crafting!
Sooooo.....
got some plain, old, boring wooden hangers hangin' around...?
How about prettying them up a bit?
They'd make great Christmas gifts.
or....
you could just keep them for yourself.
I purchased these at a local grocery store.
Paint the hangers with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in "Pure White" and let dry
(which as you know, takes only a whisker of time).
Take out a pretty filigree stamp, and with your gray stamp pad
stamp it at the center of the hanger where the arch is.
Then, lay a piece of paper towel across the lower portion of the hanger.
You don't want any wayward stamping down there.
Take your favorite French script stamp,
(you could use a pretty music stamp, too)
and with a different color ink,
stamp over your filigree impression.
Spray the hanger with a clear matte spray sealer for protection.
{I went back and painted the hook part of the hanger
because I didn't like the bright silver.}
Ahhh.....
much better.

A pretty, vintage JDA inspired hanger.

| I stamped a couple with my favorite little bird's nest, too. |
Now....
go hang up something pretty ~
on a rack made from a piece of old trim and vintage wire hooks
that you made yourself, too. :)

And stand back and smile.
You did well, my friend.
Have a wonderful creative day!
