inspiration monday


inspiration usually strikes when i'm in the bookstore.....and my last trip was no exception, because when i saw this sweet little beach hut in this book, inspiration struck hard!



i could make my very own elvie house!



and add some beads, buttons and hand stitching......



along with its very own elvie flag to sit at the top!



and i even have the perfect place for it.....
right in the middle of all of my other inspiration stuff!
woo hoo!
