I started this project for last week's Crafty Secrets challenge and finished it up in time for this week - lucky me, it fits both challenges! Darlene's challenge was nature-themed, and Joanne's was Anything But a Card.
I found this little shelf of drawers at the Salvation Army. It was stenciled with apples on the sides. I aged it with some distressed ink, then decoupaged it with images from Crafty Secrets' Birds and Blossoms and Seasonal Calendar Creative Scraps. I added the vintage button & spool of thread (for the chimney) with hot glue, and some rub-ons and a punched border gave the finishing touches.
TFL!

HOLY MOLY!!! This is AMAZING and absolutely awesome! Great job Marcy!
P.S. Have you ever heard of an 'external hard drive' LOL ... they are excellent for storing all of those years of photos!!

Fantastic Marcy! I totally love it. My first thought when I saw it was that I wanted to open the drawers, it's so beautiful you want to see what's inside.
