A Little Flag Waving Continued

Boy, do my fun things slow down once school starts back up. But my project is finished! Remember this........



I finally got a chance to paint my little project, which I put on the shelf in my office at home.







$7.95 for lumber
$3.25 for paints
$2.57 paint brushes
$13.77 total

Better than Pottery Barn's $129.00 plus shipping.............


Ok, my political science/lawyer daughter just called me and said I have 61 stars!!! I am NOT repainting it.This is so typical of me!!!!

LOL...this is priceless!! I'm laughing out loud, honest! Thanks for starting my day/year with a chuckle.

I love this. Maybe one day we'll have 61 states and you'll be ahead of us all;-) I didn't notice my blooper until after I posted it. It was a simple fix though, not like re-painting all those stars.
Happy New Year

You will love this, I was laughing along with you, and I lost my post! It just went POOF! LOL!

Don't repaint. It's perfect the way it is. My FIL would say, "Ah, the glory of the imperfect!" Just quote that to your critics. LOL!

Happy New Year and blooper onward...

XO,

Sheila :-)

Leave it! It's perfect, PB would probably charge extra for the additional stars.

Marlis said...

It's perfect.. leave it be. Who's counting anyway..

Vicki said...

Looks good to me! Hand crafted means imperfect! Love it!

Too funny! It looks great anyway!

Jacqueline said...

Maybe you are clairvoyant and we are going to acquire more states in the near future! How funny, and I am glad you are not going to change it!

That is hilarious! Stars are hard to paint so I don't know why you'd want to paint more of them than necessary? I like the separate pieces of wood put together on this!
