Craftroom Table/Door

Hubby & I have been tiling the insets of a $5 olden wooden door I found junking.  It's future is to be my craftroom work table\desk.  I have quite the collection of broken up dishes/plates here to pull from!   We used 1/2 or 3/4 inch plywood under the door for better stability and support and will top it with a pc of glass I just ordered today.  The piece will rest on 2 open stock cabinets with 4 drawers each we got at  Home Depot during their 25% off sale.   
 There are 2 large and 2 small inset panels on my door/craft table.   We used up our treasures pretty well.  That metalic tile is from the tile backsplash in our home we sold 2 yrs ago.  The pear plate was in a set of 8 Blue Ridge fruit plates my G'ma gave me.  I have the other 7 hanging in my kitchen.   
I have accidentally broken some favorites thru the years.  I love china, porcelain and ceramics.  The Blue Danabe onion plate was in a trio above my kitchen door for years.  The green ribbed Starbucks mug was given to me by my youngest son several yrs ago.  His lil heart broke when he saw it got broken.
We still have to grout the whole piece.   Won't it be fun to look down and see some memories.
 
I own a set of snowman dishes and my son has broken some bowls while on dish duty. So...I have some to show ya with this project.
Also, our neighbors gave youngest the penguin mug and it got a chip where your mouth is suppose to experience hot cocoa.  Isn't he cute playing along with the snowmen.
I look forward to showing you my dream craft space as it comes together!!
 
I stepped out in some favorite pink this week to drop off and pick up oldest son from baseball open field practice.  No one saw me and if they had I would have smiled and waved.  My hot pink robe and leopard slippers with pink poof on them.

baby Jesus bed

If I could throw  stuff away without a 2nd thought...then  there would be a lot less stuff to deal with around Beagle Run Cottage.  I'd love to eventually have friends join me on Wednesdays with their free-cycle items/projects.  But, let's just get the ball rolling. 


This is a pic I took at Target to remind you of how my cradle started out.  My family loves Cuties.
Can't throw anything out, so I made a baby bed for Jesus for the Pre-K to enjoy.  It reminded me of a manger.

They loved it!  They loved pulling the hay/crepe paper out of the bed.  They gave him a bottle too.
