Finished cherry pot, WIP, & my next victim!

19 years ago

I finished my cherry pot, and went with black grout. I couldn't get the green grout to look right. It still needs to be cleaned and polished up. I've been busy this week, we rescued a beagle from being euthanized (sp) and have been VERY busy with fostering her! Anyway, the owl is my WIP and I'm very excited about him. My fish is going to be a riot!! Gotta run!!

    Your cherry pot is really cute! Love how that turned out.
    Your next projects look really fun!
    I got a new puppy a few weeks ago, and I haven't had a minute to myself since! Good luck with your Beagle, and finding the time to play.

    Hazie- Thank you and congrats on the puppy. What breed? Puppies and a lot of work but such a reward as well.
    Slow- Thanks to you, too...I got more tile for the owl so now I'm set.
    Jane- Thanks for the compliments! What's carnival glass? The black one of the blueish one? Why is it called carnival glass? I just bought it at an antique shop.
    Chickee- Thank you. And the rescue, she makes progress everyday. She has a broken leg, a hip out of socket, she was pregnant, and abandoned by her family. We're blessed she is with us. Unknowingly teaching us perseverance and what's really important.
    Katie- Thanks, how's the sailboat coming?!?
    Bama- The "work" just never ends, huh?
    Idaho- Drop in anytime! Especially when you want to give me compliments!! ;) I can't wait to see the owl, too!

    Very nicely done! Love the owl, and fish.

    BTW: I have the same granite counter tops!

    The cherry pot came out so nice!! The cutest pot!! Nice job on the owl, too!!

    Good luck with the doggie, so good to hear you rescued her.Mine is (was?) a rescue.The humane society here rescued her from Kentucky. No physical problems, but she took a long time to trust us! (especially men).Now she's queen of the house!

    Love the cherry pot! Very Mary Engelbreit-y! And I love her stuff.

    Cool owl and fish - will be anxious to see them coming along.

    Kelly, I love how your cherry pot turned out!

    The owl is looking good. My MIL collects owls and she would love what you are doing with it.

    My DS would love that fish, where did you find it? What are you planning on doing to it?

    Hrsg- Thanks! And I love my counter tops!
    Maria- Thank you for the complments!! I'm thinking about putting a snake plant (mother-in-law's tongue plant) in the cherry pot. I'm also changing its name to the "Cheery Cherry Pot." LOL. My doggie, Delilah, is doing great! She got the cast off her broken leg today! She is still a little sore, though. Glad to hear you have a rescue, too!
    Lyndalu- Don't ya just love Mary Englebreit?!? Her stuff is just so fun and cute and so "Why didn't I think of that?" I'm dying to start the fish, the owl is a matter of a lot of cuts! Gotta just jump in!
    Barb- Thanks! You can tell you MIL if she really wants an owl like that I got it from Lowes the other day. I hope she likes the finish product! (I guess I'll just have to finish it so we can find out!) I got the fish at a local antiques store. It said handmade on the tag. Flip it over and it says Made in China. So it was mass-produced. There should be more out there somewhere. Maybe an eaby search? Its wooden.
    Have a great day everyone!

    Cindy,
    Her story really tugs at your heart, doesn't it? Thanks for the props on my WIPs!!

    Great work! I love all the neat stuff you found to mosaic. I have lots of stuff to mosaic with and not much to mosaic on, lol.

    zone envy - "I have lots of stuff to mosaic with and not much to mosaic on, lol"

    That won't last long. Pretty soon EVERYTHING will look like something to mosaic!!
