As soon as I saw these rolling pins in the shop I just had to get a few and they were so cheap as well. I really had no idea what I was going to do with them but knew I would be able to do something with them.
The other day when I was in my mum's kitchen I got the idea to make this little project from a little kitchen prayer she has had on the wall for many years. I truly believe inspiration is everywhere, we just have to look for it.
I stained the rolling pin with Tim Holtz distress ink and than added a gloss varnish to it to finish
it off.
it off.
I had every intention of going out today being Saturday but it just didn't happen, I had much more fun creating. The weather is definitely warming up in Sydney so will go out tomorrow and enjoy the sun, its great having weekends with no definite plans.
