It's New and Old... Rolling Pin Rose Garden

I really like taking the old and the new and making is totally different than what it's meant for... I love everything vintage so I took some of my vintage rolling pins and added a couple of new ones and turn them into an old Charming rolling pin rose garden
I got some from Goodwill 2$ and picked up a couple from Walmart 6$...
So I started by sanding just the handles of the Rolling Pin only just ...so I can add a little stain on the ends
A little stain goes a long way
Adding a little paint is totally up to you depending on the transfer you use 
Now they're ready so here comes the fun part.... can you say transfers
I picked up IOD iron orchid transfers called floral treasure 11"× 14"♥️ this will cover 2 rolling pins...@12.99$

After the transfer is put on I took a very fine sandpaper 220 going over the handles of the rolling pin and just a little over the transfer and sealing it with wax
Really loving my rolling pin rose garden
Just remember at this point they are no longer food safe
Makes a great gift for any occasion

Great idea, I’m inspired. Another method would be to fussy cut and decoupage onto the rolling pins. Also, they would not be food safe as you mentioned. Love your creativity. Thank you!
