An Everyday Item Made Exquisite

Happy Monday! We have the perfect creation to get you inspired for the whole week. Some would say altering and turning something mundane, or even old into a gorgeous maybe even functional piece of art is therapeutic and they would be right. On today's blog is a trash to treasure sort of project by Deb Edwards!
