P is for Purple....

I love the color Purple. I like The Color Purple too, but that's another story......hee-hee-hee.....this post will be WAAAAAAAYYY less dramatic than The Color Purple because it's about the color purple. You get all that?

Our friend's daughter was having a birthday last week and I just didn't really know what to get her for her birthday. Too old for little girl stuff, too young for big girl stuff.......so....out came my creative genes and here's what I decided on.......

I took this.....

and this......
and this......
and made THIS:



What do you think? I think it turned out really cute! The birthday girl thought so too!

My mind is now going haywire thinking of all the ways I can paint these crates for people....primary colors for teachers filled with all sorts of school year goodies ; painted to match a baby's room and filled with diapers and practical items.....can you imagine all the ways this can be done?

How exciting!
