(Mother of) Pearls of Wisdom
Posted on 9:02 PM by follow me

a picture frame (I popped out the glass and painted the whole shebang
white, then added mirror I got on Ebay)
a papier mache tray (I decoupaged with tissue paper...desperate times
call for desperate measures...and when you move into a home with
lavender walls and are FAR too lazy to paint it...you find yourself
being more desperate than the average bear!)
and one of my favorite creations...my "pearly de-light" switch cover!

I saw the idea in a magazine a long time ago, except it had been done
with seashells. I didn't have any shells then, but since I have a thing for
MOP buttons, I had quite a few of them to play with. In the magazine,
the shells were glued directly to the wall, but I didn't really want to pull
a huge chunk of lovely wallboard out, if there came a day when my muse
wanted to change things up...so, I glued them to the switch plate and
then just placed the frame around it. I'm pretty happy with the way it
turned out!(my muse still likes it too !).
