Hen Peck a Patriotic finish

I stitched Hen Peck by Plum Street Samplers on 14 count Venetian Stone and used the following colors: CCW Barn Door, Black Coffee, Pea Pod, Bamboo & Wavy Navy; DMC 747, 680, 783. 

I mounted my stitched piece on sticky board and used Stitching Stripes by Stitching with the Housewives behind that. I then hot glued both pieces to the Tall house by 141 Design Company that I had painted black. To finish the top I made a bow from ribbon I bought at Michaels and tied white twine around the middle which I also bought at Michaels.

 I stitched with the called for colors on 25 count Lugana in the color Cloud.

Finishing: 

I mounted my stitching on sticky board and backed it with black stitching stripes by Stitching with the Housewives, which was also mounted on sticky board. I used a Hive backer from 141 Design Company that I decoupaged the new yellow Priscillas Pretty Plaids on and painted the back of the hive with the color Lamp Post by Bungalow 47 before gluing it together.

I used ribbon from Michaels to make a double bow and then tied twine around honey dippers to place in the middle of the bow.
