My First Roses Painted Shelf

Okay, I took the leap!! I had this little shelf I found at a thrift store and decided to bite the bullet and paint the ratty thing with some shabby roses. Here is the result. I have to say I am delighted with it. Okay okay, my roses aren't like anyone else's but they're mine!!! I'm on a roll again, chicks!! Wooooohoooooo!!! ;-) Do I hear an offer?!?!?! LOL

    C'est magnific!

    Very lovely. It's amazing what can happen with a little bit of leaping! Even a slight hop in your step can move a rosepetal mountain.
