French Farmhouse

Hi Everyone~

My friend Melody has a blog called Brown Gingham Creations. Imagine my surprise this weekend when I was at an antique mall and saw a brown gingham tablecloth--I just knew I had to get it for her as a surprise!


In keeping with French Farmhouse decor, I made 2 tags and wanted to include one with a rooster. (Graphics are from The Graphics Fairy.)


A clothespin adorned with French writing...



and voila! her tablecloth is ready to send in the mail!


I hope you're all having a wonderful week~

XO
Cindy

Such a lovely, thoughtful gift! My summer holiday has officially begun and I am oh so happy. Hope to get many projects done. At least that's the plan over the next 2 months. :) Have a great week. Tammy

Cindy...you MUST show before and after pics of your weight loss. I'm pretty shy about showing my BOD, :(, but anyone can see the weight loss I've had in my face. I'm excited to see yours and sooo happy for you!

LOVE THE BROWN CHECK! Yummy!

Wishing you a Happy Parish Day! .....Angie

Oh Cindy,
Your thoughtfulness and kindness is what makes your friendship a true treasure.
I know I've not mentioned this, but I've been looking for a brown gingham tablecloth forever and the tag with the clothespin..LOL...I'm doing a 3-d border in my laundry room using clothesline with vintage doll clothes and paperdoll clothes hanging on the line. This will go perfectly!
Thank you seems so small.
Melody
