Please follow along as the following crafters showcase their handmade Shabby Chic Accents. Be sure to visit each blog, as each artist will be having a giveaway. Also, we have a couple of awesome sponsors who have generously donated for a “Grand Prize Giveaway”. Their shops are full of shabby goodness. To qualify, all you have to do is become a follower if not already and leave a comment on each blog stating you are a follower, or have become one.


The shabby chic style has been around for many many years, originating from Great Britain, where time worn items were showcased in most country homes. Today’s essence of shabby chic is to achieve that time worn layered vintage look from yesteryear by painting, distressing, dying or tea staining. Now we bring it to you right from our craft tables.


For my project I used some paper that I bought at Walmart with some random lace and trims that I had in my stash and all the stamped quotes are from Pink By Design. For the red and polka dot paper I used BoBunny paper (my fave). By the way...I made this out of toliet paper rolls that I painted white and brushed with pink.
