I did my first one back in February of 2010 and it is now in my bedroom.
I removed the raindrops from this frame and added butterflies, in a gradient.
I started with black and worked my way up in varying shades of blue.
And now it’s on my wall that I love to play around with. I’ve also added my vintage sail boat lamp inside of a vintage crate, and another set of deer horns that a co-worker gave me.
I have stained my new to me coffee table and it’s ok. It’s not perfect, but I’ll live with it. I hope to have it done before next weekend, but it’s been so hot here that I avoid going outside. Serious, it was 47 with the humidex on Thursday (116 F.)

Looks great Mel! I love them both!! The wall looks magazine-worthy!
These are neat! I made one of these a couple of years ago! They are so much fun! You did such a great job!
I've seen this before and I love it! Love how yours looks on your wall. Loving the horns too!
And yes you are right, the hubs will probably still have problems finding things! Men!

I love the gradient butterfly art! It's so graphic and simple. Very nice.
