Yes, another "Paris Flea Market"~~I use this stencil a lot~~it's a big stencil which fits onto larger objects needing "Frenched~Up"~~
(like this old picnic basket I brought home from the shop because it hasn't sold~~poor old thing has sat in my little booth for about 6 months)~~~
This is an experiment to see if NOW it will go home with someone~~don't these old baskets make great storage? I sometimes think my customers look past the "potential" of items~~(I must convince them this is going to their house;)~~
~~And~~I have two other picnic baskets still at the shop which are smaller~~(yes~~I'm going to paint them too and do something a bit different this time around)~~
Do you think sometimes customers need "the vision"? I really do, because I can view your blogs and say to myself "why didn't I think of that!"~~~"what a fabulous idea"~~~etc.~~~
I'll let you know if the basket finally finds a home; sharing my thoughts with you here at these parties:
I Love your basket! Thanks for visiting. I'm your newest follower!

I think it is a lovely basket. I use them around the house for storing things - always useful.

Absolutely some people need a nudge in the right direction to see potential. Your basket is lovely and I predict it will soon find a permanent home!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'll take that too along with the other goodies from yesterday! That is just adorable! I do agree with you, sometimes people do need "the vision". Thanks for the "vision" and you have a wonderful day, Gail
ReplyDeleteLove the stencil and all you've done with it!

That would be fun to have to for when my husband and I use to go on our picnics yearly in a small Paris park.
ReplyDeleteNice job...love that stencil. It won' last long.
ReplyDeleteOh yes...I think we need to help some of them out. The basket should sell fast now...love the stencil...where did you find it? I somethings add ideas on my sales tags to help sell the item.
