Making a pretty display shelf

An old shelf lying in wait in the shed, becomes a pretty display piece to house my goodies at Finders Keepers Emerald.

I used wallpaper,dollies, cardboard, fabric and my trusty staple gun to transform this shelf.

New dolly

Oh what a happy morning, I plugged in my old Janome to give her one last try before retiring her to the junk pile (she conked out after being rather over worked a year ago) and to my great delight she worked!

She worked so well in fact that we made this doll together. I forgot how sturdy and strong this machine was, unlike my fancy newer Brother machine, my Janome can sew through thick layers of felt and fabric, her feed dogs are fab. 

After re visiting my Janome my Brother certainly seems a little pants!
