Feathered Nest Friday

Welcome to Feathered Nest Friday!
French Country Cottage

I have been working on a project here this week but not in a fun way.
 No I didn't get any rooms wrapped up and finished...
or any pieces of furniture revamped... 
aye...
We have working on fixing a stubborn clogged kitchen sink drain pipe and replacing pipes
NOT FUN! The drain finally started working yesterday...
did you hear cheering?
Phew.

Here's what I did work on that was fun~

I made a architectural pediment  and as I photographed it...
 I was inspired to create a little
faux French Boiserie out of antique armoire doors and that pediment piece.



I'll share a tutorial coming soon on it.

I want to give a big shout out Thank You to my newest sponsors!!
