The Old Is New Again...


 
Finally!  I linked my posts to my pages in my tabs.  I don't know why it took me so long to figure this out, well, actually I didn't figure it out, I had to Google how to do it but after that, it was easy peasy.  While I was working on labeling my posts I took a stroll down Memory Lane.   I looked through some of my favorite posts and some of my painted items.  Oh I remember writing that post or I remember creating that item I thought. It's funny how something old can be new again.

While looking through my painted items post I couldn't  find this Ginger box in any of them, even though I painted it about 3 years ago.  So, I am sharing this Old for me but New to you piece.

I cut this ginger girl from 1" pine, I painted a Terrye French design in the center.  This is one of Terrye's "older' designs, every time I paint it, it seems new again. I attached the wood cut out to an old drawer that I found at one of the local thrift stores ( a place where old can be new again.)  I added some greenery and cookie cutters to complete it.

How about you?  Do you have any old is new again stories?

Willa, you have some mad artist skills!! I love prim art and I wish I could draw even an apple. I was never blessed in that department. This is as cute as can be. Good for you getting your stuff linked up. I've been saying it for a year and I am just terrified of tackling the drop down menu or anything else design wise. I'm so scared I screw up and loose everything I've done so far.
