Dog Art wall

Really, nothing here is recycled. I just love dogs and since my business is dogs, I chose to collect as many little dog related signs and pictures I could find. I did a collage over my sofa. Everyone loves to read through all the little sayings. I did paint the two portraits of my pugs.

Copper and Roxy's bed

Joy requested a bed for her two small dogs. She asked for an ocean theme. She especially loves sea turtles so I was thrilled to find the perfect fabric for her! My husband, Jody, did all the carpentry and came up with the idea of using a frame for a headboard. He found the perfect size frame with a soft cork-like material in the middle.We covered it with fabric, making the perfect soft, fabric headboard. We found some different wood pieces at different craft stores and put them together to finish off the ends. It really came out adorable!

This was the table we used

We had considered using it this way, but with the frame we found, we decided to turn it sideways

This was the frame we found at Joann's

Just seeing how it would all look together

We found this adorable little anchor and decided to add a chain to it and put it on the headboard

Annabelle and Madison's bed

My sister has two little chihuahuas. They are both light colored so this fabric is sure to pick up a lot of hair. Since she had asked for pink and black, I made two blankets out of the extra fabric so she can easily wash them as they get covered in white hair. I hope she and her babies really like it!

Riley's bed

Riley's Bed

Riley's mom asked me to make him a bed that matched the colors in her family room. I loved this fabric the moment I saw it. I usually choose bright and bold colors, so it was unusual for me to use tan and white. I simply stenciled his name and some paw prints on it. 

The Luke Awakens!

My cousin, Bob, wanted a special bed for his dog, Luke Skywalker. Luke is a tiny Yorkie. We had discussed color and Bob said he wanted a nice medium "Facebook" blue. When I asked about the theme he said he loves Star Wars and they like to say, "The Luke Awakens" instead of "The Force Awakens". I decided to take the graphic for the movie and alter it to say "Luke". I then printed it on cardstock and had it laminated to attach it to the headboard. I found the Darth Vader fabric at Walmart and decided that the black and white would look nice with the blue.

Coffee Bar

I was so inspired when I saw the coffee bar that Joanna Gaines made on an episode of Fixer Upper (season 1 Episode 2). I was telling my mom about it and expressed how much I wish I had a bigger kitchen so I could have one. She suggested I make a mini version. I researched on Pinterst and found that many people had made mini coffee bars. I ordered hundred year old wood floating shelves online, painted the chalk board paint and repurposed some things I and my mother had lying around. This is the final result:

Scooby Doo & Star Wars dog bed

I had planned to make two dog beds for my daughter's two Pugs, Jynkies and Darth Vader. I was going to find two matching end tables and paint one in a Scooby Doo theme and the other in a Star Wars theme. I didn't find two end tables, but instead I found one really large one. I decided to make it fun and paint it half and half. They both lay together anyways, so they may not enjoy two separate beds as much!

I didn't paint the pictures on the headboard. Instead, I printed them on cardstock and had them laminated so the dogs hopefully wouldn't ruin them. Then I stapled them on the headboard so they are secure. 

                                                          

Jynkies inspected it all thoroughly
