Here's something I did last night whilst watching a movie.
By the way... I think I must warn you... I think there's something wrong with me. I can't just sit down and watch a movie like normal people. I always have to be doing something. Jewelry... Sanding picture frames that I painted... And my next "movie-project" is putting the glass panes back in a cute window that I just got done painting! I guess that's not that strange though... Ladies used to knit and embroidery to keep busy. That makes me feel better!
Anyway! Back to my project!
This was just an ordinary, plain glass pitcher. I took copper wire and some of my beads and randomly wrapped it around and around the handle. The curlies are my favorites. Here and there, I'd twist the wire and get a cute little curly thing. It's adorable! A perfect "lemonade pitcher!" And while I was on a role, I made six matching napkin rings too. I'm really excited how they turned out!!!
I already had all the beads... I just had to get the pitcher and the wire... And it didn't take long at all! :o)
Just had to share!

Great project Nicole. Check out my blog, your blog traffic is about to go way up.
That is too cute!
Hi Nicole, found you through Margo's blog. Creative people can never sit still!! Cute blog.
Hi, Nicole! I, too, have to always have something else to do while watching a movie - it's an affliction we share! LOL! Looks like you're enjoying and sharing life as you were created to do. Here's to the lemonade!
Hi Nicole! I am another visitor from Margo's blog. I love what you did with the handle of the pitcher. You took something so "everyday" and made it special. I don't watch a lot of T.V. but when I do, I'm also looking thru magazines for ideas for my next project. Have fun with all your projects!
I'm just proud of you for even watching movies - I usually only make it about 10 minutes before I end up outside painting or hammering something! Love the pitcher and napkin rings, they will look great on the table :)
I'm here from Margo's blog too - glad to have another good T2T blog to follow.
Hi Nicole,
I am a friend of Margo's. Love your idea. So cool!!
Have a great day!

Nicole, I love your picture frames, do you just use stain black spray paint? They are gorgeous. I also enjoy your blog. Thank you for some great inspiration.
Yes... I just use ordinary black spray paint. (From Menards) I hit it with that... Let it dry... And then go at it with a bit of sandpaper. It doesn't take long at all! Very easy! :o)
