matching blackboards

i had a request from a friend for 2 scrolly blackboards for her sisters
for Christmas.
and the very next day i found what she was after!
it was a student free day yesterday, so i spent the whole morning painting them up.
the edging of each is so pretty.
more teacups waiting to be turned into teacup candles
they are both a great size.
what a great gift idea :)
my crystal napkin ring collection.
found 2 more last week to add in.
