Go Duke!!
Okay, I will be the first to admit I don’t know ANYTHING about sports…so ya’ll don’t hate if you’re not a fan. Thank you to Katie for asking me to do this for her darling boy Forrest, I’m sure Papa is proud. It turned out really well, considering I had about 7 heart attacks when applying the varnish, it decided to react with my blue paint (UGGGGHHHHH) talk about scared when I saw the first smear on that devil, all those hours of detail. Feeling like I had a steel band strapped around my chest, I went into overdrive, somehow God was with me because I was able to salvage it with no noticeable damage. Excuse the photography, I had terrible lighting and barely remembered to take a picture before she walked out the door! To say my poor brain was taxed was an understatement!! Whew, I did not completely relax until after a bubble bath and a glass of wine 🙂
My name is Julie, I love cowboy boots, food, art, and all things vintage. Married to Sean, a talented, hard working man (who can build anything I draw out for him) we have three children, two boys and a girl. I thank God every day, the ways He is revealed to me through them is astounding. My passion, the reason for this blog...developing the gifts God has given me, sharing what he lays on my heart through painting, and turning useless junk and forlorn furniture into something fabulous. 
YAY! I referred you to her when I first found out Forrest was getting a helmet, so happy it worked out for you both, it looks great!
i would have had a heart attack also that is so much detail work to get messed up!
you did an amazing job as well!
I say the bubble bath and glass of wine was earned!!
oh wow, what a lot of detail… I would’ve been stressing out!! And my husband would NOT approve of this post – he’s a Carolina fan all the way!!!
The detail is amazing on this. SO happy that it was ruined!
I meant *WASN’T RUINED!!!
