Yudu Time Again!

So my next Yudu Project was also for Calvin's room, using inspiration from Land of Nod (one of my favorite kids furniture/bedding/toys sites:
I created these, by using the Yudu, to silk screen the images onto my material:

I found the biker photo online and traced it in Illustrator and the guitar I got from Vectorious. I then printed these images onto my transparency and burned them onto the silkscreen, and yudued my heart out. After they were dry, I actually used acrylic paint and fabric medium to come in and add the additional color. I made my guitar strings by dipping the edge of a ruler into white paint and pressing onto the pillow. Here is the finished product:

Painted Pianos

Ok it's a little wild and crazy, but I had fun with it...check out my piano. After 3 years, it's finally done! I sanded, added molding, painted, antiqued, glazed and then also recovered the bench. Whew! It was a lot of work.

Before: (well not actual before, I forgot to take one, so I found this on the web, mine looked like this only in a lot worse condition).
After:

My friend Angee sent me this piano she found from Design Mom. I'm in love, I wish I had seen this before I started mine.
