Summer Spruce Up

I finally took a break from my crazy life one day in an attempt to do a little summer sprucing up.

I made a new door decoration!!!

Watermelon!

I love it :0}

I made the body of the watermelon out of bead board plywood, then added the seeds and lighter squiggle of rind cut out of 1/8" mdf.  With all the moving and unpacking and traveling and helping, I have been going through woodcraft withdrawals!

I am no bow maker, but I sure love my new door decor.

I hung it up on the front door, right next to my....

gigantic ant army! 

LOvE iT!

I will have the pattern available Monday.  It will be for BOTH the watermelon AND the ants :0}  Super simple, super fun projects for a little late summer splash of color.

See you tomorrow!
