Calvini Whodini who wears a bikini and likes fine martinis! It might not be Shakespeare..but it works for our family!
So being that it is Martin Luther King Day (a man to be remembered)...TMC has been running movies with great actors such as Sidney Poitier . He is one of my all time favorites. I love "A Patch of Blue"..and "Lillies of the Field"....both are top notch films. I am one of those that have a problem with wanting to keep my hands busy while watching television...so I finished up some projects I had started last week. I had grand schemes of finishing up my craft room (I soooo want to share that with you when it is finished) but that did not happen. I did however finish two items that are now in there. Remember the little cannisters...well they are now future holders of bits and baubles. I also picked up some mini clipboards for a 1.00. I made one into a picture frame of sorts. It holds a picture of my heart...my boy on his birthday.
Our Calvin Cat got in on the act as well...he constantly takes poor Riley's bed....and Riley is well....how do I say it....a bit of a baby. He is scared of this 10 pound kitty. So I snapped a pic of Calivini whodini taking up this HUGE bed. Lastly I recovered this thrift frame....you remember this project ...http://cherrysjubileehome.blogspot.com/2008/07/couple-of-befores-and-afters-and.html same type of project but used paper...that looks just like fabric. I LOVE that paper. I want to put a special pic in it. I already moved one of my pitchers as well. Nothing stays in the same spot for long. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and a good holiday today. Cherry

I love the clipboards. Such eye candy!
I like the quail family. Great usage of the clip boards from target.
The polka dot cannisters are so sweet. You can not beat polka dots or checks. I love them both. Your son is really cute. My cairn terrier, Maggie is scared of the neighbors cat, She will start out to chase him and first thing you know he is chasing her. She is such a big brave dog. My hubby said she should be ashamed to let a cat chase her in her own yard. I can't wait to see more of your projects, but Cherry girl, Do you ever sleep? Have a wonderful evening.

Love the polka dot canisters!!
In regards to your question on my blog...it is nice in June in Florida. It is not too hot yet, sometimes we have a few afternoon showers, but not bad.
Have you been to Disneyworld before?

Cute canisters and clipboards! Love your remakes!
You are such a master at taking a before and turning it into an adorable after!
Hi Cherry,
I have admired your blog for quite some time. You are so inspiring with everything you do and such beautiful pictures too. I happened upon the comment you left on Lions, Tigers and Boys. You had asked her about tips for eating at Disney. All I can say is "Tonga Toast" at the Polynesian...to die for. If you want more tips let me know.
Have a great night,
~Karen~

Great projects! My M-I-L bumped into Sidney Poitier in NYC. Literally. She turned around and BAM!...it knocked her right to the ground. She said he was such a gentleman. Helped her up, brushed her off. Apologized even though it wasn't his fault. Funny story though!
Your blog is absolutely adorable! Thanks so much for stopping by mine.
So cute!!! I came across your blog and love it!!!! Thanks for sharing all your wonderful ideas. Heidi
Hi Cherry

Cherry - you amaze me!!!! You know I need those polka dot canisters!!!! You have got such an incredible eye for things - so sweet and homey - I want to come visit. Thanks for your constant inspiration! You had ask me about my "faux" tin backsplash - it came from Lowe's - $20.00 a piece - you can cut it with scissors and it installs easily with adhesive! I know you would have absolutely no problem with this project 'cause you are a wizard!!!! Have a great day! Cathy

Oh my goodness I just love those canisters. I am crazy about red and white polka dots. In fact I just did a post with all things red and white polka dots...all of the items can be found on ebay, etsy or the feathered nest's website.
Did you use scrapbook paper on those?
Also, our cats are almost identical. Too funny!
Wow, I love all of your makeover projects!! The canisters and clipboard are my favorite-sooo cute!!
I really like your canisters and frame makeovers!! Your are right the paper does look like fabric! :o)
