Pooh No More!



Pooh no more!


When I purchased these at my local Goodwill the gal checking me just loved them. She had a thing for the classic Winnie the Pooh. I had noticed the bears but it never dawned on me that they were Pooh. I didn’t have the heart to tell her I had other plans for pooh.

After taking the frame apart and giving it a new coat of spray paint I decided on using some old fabric scraps as a backing. I super fine glittered a cross, and adhered it to the fabric.



Perfect for Hannah’s teacher Ms.H this Christmas

Oh, and take a look at what Hannah and I got this past week.





It's a work in progress in the garage for now. When it’s all done we hope it will look a bit like this $250 one from Pottery Barn Teen that she has been eyeing!

  1. How exciting you found a mirror in that design ~ I love those myself. Poor Pooh. When I've been to Goodwill the cashiers always say "this is really pretty" or "that's cute" with no idea that I will be painting it or taking it apart!

  2. Just wondering, did you take the little Pooh pictures (are they cross stitch?) back to the Goodwill girl? I can't wait to see how that mirror turns out. Should look fabulous!

  3. I love your blog. I was eyeing that cross plaque in the corner of another picture. Where did you find the cross? Very cute idea!

  5. Love the framed cross! The mirror looks awesome, too! I'm sure the price tag is much nicer than the pottery barn one, also!
