Snow Days!

Hello friends!
Isn't this snow cute?!? 
 This is Snow Days from Country Cottage Needleworks.. My daughter stitched this and I finished it. I used a thrift store frame , and used the backing from the frame to mount buffalo check fabric on. I mounted her stitching on sticky board and glued it to the buffalo check covered board. The frame was painted with chalk paint and distressed with sandpaper..

 I added pine branches to the top with red pom poms and black check homespun. I made a bow from red check ribbon, red plaid ribbon and black homespun.. It's stitched on 28 count tea/coffee dyed evenweave..


If you would  like to see what I am up to everyday join me on Instagram and my Facebook page ! I do post on both almost everyday ..Links to my Facebook page , Instagram and Pinterest are in the sidebar .. Hope to see you there ! :)

Your finishes are especially nice because they are economical! I have one piece my mom did and I'm going to have that professionally framed and glassed. Other than that, anything I do is going to be finished "Priscilla Style". My stuff isn't that precious that I shouldn't enjoy it!

I love your finish. I like that you combined different ribbons in the bow as well as the buffalo check backing.
