From Scraps to Crafts

Posted on January 23, 2013 by Pillows A-La-Mode

See these beautiful flowers? They’re painted on a vinyl record album!!! I love it! This work of art was created by my friend Kristin and her parents. Kristin was a student teacher in my school and is now a full-fledged teacher, newlywed, and brand-new Etsy shop owner. I’d like to invite you to check out Kristin’s blog here and her shop here—featuring painted glassware, handmade cards, candle holders, and more—or anytime from my Shop Love! page above. Thank you again for the lovely gift, Kristin! ♥

    Yes, I love the idea of it, but doubt I could do it so well.

  When she gave it to me she had to tell me to turn it over to see the flip side before I could figure out what she used! 🙂
