Get Well Present for My Mum (2nd post of the day)



I went out to a garden centre and saw this paper mache letter and I thought that it would make a nice present for my mum who has just had an operation. I gave it 3 coats of  white acrylic paint and then sprayed it with Glitter Mist in Diamond Mist to give it a sparkle. I then looked through my flowers in my stash and as my mum had commented that she liked the Hydrangea flowers in a previous project I decided to add them to the letter.




This shows a view from the inside of the "J".


And the outside of the "J", showing line of flowers running up the outside.



A close up showing the butterflies.



And finally a close up of the top of the "J". I chose a small tag to wish her "Get Well Soon" on the back and she was very pleased with it.

  3. Carol, this is impossibly pretty!! I would love to receive something like that so I'm sure your Mum was over the moon - if she doesn't like it, I could find a home for it as I share her initial. . . . . !!! Hope she's on the road to recovery.
