Vanity Times Two

Vanity times two.

I was looking for one.

And found two homespun lasses.

Both needing a makeover.

First I ripped off those sad skirts and the fake leather tops.

(Really gingham and calico and leather - what kind of fashion statement is that!?!)

There were ten trillion small nails holding the skirts to these girls.

Yes, I counted!

The blue one is strictly homemade.

The other is not, but she is missing some parts.

Like a drawer.

But you know me, missing body parts never deter me.

The blue lass was heavily sanded.

And that was that.

Quite naked, but charming.

I imagine her with a creamy white tutu.

The red lass I painted with a green homemade chalk paint.

Except her top.

I created a linen look by dragging a stiff bristled brush and a rough paper towel over and over until I like what I saw.

Hauled both girls over to Riverfront Antique Mall.

I am thinking of some sweet vintage Christmas items for her top.

The green chairs?

Oh, I will tell you about them later.

See y'all!
