Owl Lady

I know I am becoming the owl lady... but they are just too cute! 

I bought this owl at the DI (Deseret Industries) for $3.

Before 

{he was pretty ugly before, not going to lie!}

Progress (before sanding and staining)

I painted him with  Krylon Blue Ocean Breeze.

I decided to try a rustic-looking owl even though the thought of trying scared me. I sanded  him with a piece of sand paper and rubbed on some Ebony {Minwax wood stain}

After


  
Westy bought me this owl at an auction that he frequently goes to. He is made out of natural material and he even smells SO good. 

I really am becoming an owl lady! -but I like it
{like Grandma P with her frogs!}

I'm into Owl fabric right now- darling stuff. I love how daring you are with paint- you're just awesome! Can't wait to see the finished kitchen cabinet project.
