Pottery Barn cubby gets another redo

The PB cubby came in handy for my mother in law's recent birthday party. I filled it with black and white photos of her growing up.  We really had fun selecting the pictures and used mostly flower frogs and old clothes pins to display them.  I included an old vintage camera in the center.  Kara and I made a small sign from cardstock, dictionary pages and lace that read, "Happy Birthday Ama Jean."

 

Sorry for the flash. My kitchen is in the center of the house. The cubby hangs on the kitchen wall. We have very little natural light in here. I added "80" to an old clipboard and at the last minute made a party hat to add some height. I used light gel medium to glue vintage book pages and lace to a paper mache cone. There's a little clump of tinsel at the top. That's an old car horn sitting on top too. Just think of it as a huge party favor!

Now that the party is over, I guess I'll have to redo the cubby again! I'm thinking a 4th of July or summer theme.  What do you think?  I hope you are having a good weekend.  Until next time....xoxo
