New artwork for the house

I've been doing a few projects around the house. I'm inspired by a few girls' blogs I read. Sometimes it's nice to make your own things. Adds character.

I found the birds I liked, printed them out. Cut them out and gently glued them onto an existing frame I had. I also had the grosgrain ribbon.



The next project I did cost me about 1/2 of a cent. The ornament to the right of the pig is from an old front door light fixture we replaced. Its the top of it. I was going to throw it away but saw potential. I spray painted it white and tied a ribbon around it. I think what I'll really use it for is a picture hanger. It has 2 holes at the base already.
