a custom sign...and a grand opening for ruffled nest



i used vintage blue string, glued it on like a script font
(i used modgepodge)

leaving the ball of string was my idea, but then jason suggested I put it on a branch with a bird's nest resting in it's crook.........he's brilliant!

the metal letters aren't exactly what i wanted on it - i wanted vintage metal letters - (still on the hunt!)

Sherrie loved it - and that's all that matters!!!

and I can't wait to have her grand opening!!  music & eats & vintage & industrial & painted furniture & (hopefully) even a sip of wine in the mix

here's some shots of her place at the 'soft opening' earlier this month.......
entrance in the south alley behind main street








i want that screen door








a lot of her items sold
so she is working practically every day to paint some more items (she uses Annie Sloan paint)


I put together her new flyer



which was so fun to do:


front...

and back...


see you there!

  11. Definitely love the sign. How much is the Tolle chandelier hanging in front of the screen door you like? Do they ship? Can you find out for me and let me know at annafee1964@yahoo.com. It would go great in the homestead house we are building. You can see it at http://anna-livinglifeinruraltennessee.blogspot.com/
