the metal waste basket went from plain to chic in seconds. All I did was printing one of my favourite graphic from the Graphics Fairy on to Water slide decal paper and transferred it on to the waste basket. Add a ribbon and you are done. I found the water slide decal paper (clear) on ebay.
Thank you so much,Becky:) Hope to see you there.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend and as always thank you so much for stopping by and for all your lovely comments. Now I'm off to catch up with all of you which will take me a while,lol.
Hugs and love,

It certainly doesn't look like a waste basket any more. Love it! Thanks for sharing. Sue
Love it. It turned out so beautiful.
I have to try that.
Have a great weekend
Water Slide Decal paper is now on my shopping list! This is great, the image is clear and easy to see, not so with other transfer methods.
Thanks for sharing!

You make it sound so easy! It really does look stunning, what a fabulous transformation from mundane to marvellous.
Hello dear Marie, It doesn't need heavy embellishments to turn something from plain into pretty. Both your projects are the best examples. They look très chic now.
Congratulations on being featured on Timewashed!

Manchmal ist weniger mehr!

Una composición finísima, me encanta , feliz fin de semana:)
Gorgeous Marie! I love seeing your beautiful home accents. I hope you are enjoying some spring your way! Have a wonderful weekend!
Hello sweet friend,
they both looks so gorgeous with your transfers - and sweet bouquets ,I also think the little black ribbon is so lovely on the white metal basket.
more beauty to your home dear marie.
Warm hugs and love,
Dorthe
Oh, aren't they gorgeous?! The scroll work around the graphic on the flower pot is the most perfect frame--and it was already there, just waiting for your magic touch!
Ahem. While I'm here, I'd like to brag about (er, I mean mention that) my beautiful giveaway package from Marie arrived this week, and believe me, the pics didn't do it justice! Included were two lovely tags, vintage French papers, loads of sweet trinkets in an adorable altered matchbox, a beautifully altered muslin bag, and, of course, the pièce de résistance (please note the accent marks - hehe!): The Drop-Dead Gorgeous Soldered Eiffel Tower Pendant!!! (Be still my heart!) And Marie wrapped everything all up in a large piece of gorgeous white-on-white brocade fabric!! (I had told her that I want to try my hand at fabric collage work... how sweet was she to include the piece for me?!)
Sorry to have gone on and on, but I just can't get over the fact that I won something from the ever-so-talented (and lovely) Marie!!! Thank you again, dear one.♥

Dear Marie,you are so right....quick and easy projects are so much fun :)

Have a wonderful weekend !!

You'd never know that was a metal wastebasket!! Beautiful.
Hi Marie,

Ooh, so lovely, I have to look for that paper, I've never heard of it.
You always create such beauty, Marie.

That is so lovely Marie, and the flowers you have chosen are a perfect compliment to your piece. x
Your new decoration is simply gorgeous!!!! Wonderful ideas! I hope you have spent a good Easter and I wish you a nice weekend, my friend.

I wouldn't mind moving in either! Beautiful and, as you say, so simple.

The ribbon was such a simple adornment but how, along with the graphic it has completely transformed the item.
Perfection!
Wishes to you Marie.

Marie if your garbage cans are this lovely I can only imagine the rest of your house! Gorgeous...gotta run and find that paper!
Der Marie
What a transformation! These are both so beautiful now with their French images transferred! I have not heard of that water slide decal paper either. Is that available over the internet dear friend?
And you have decorated them so beautifully with your flowers too!
Have a wonderful Sunday,
Love and hugs,
Suzy
You have turned two already lovely objects into something really special Marie! And now they definitely have that fine French feel to them! Hugs, Ira
