sun room workings

This week I have been working on more sun room pillows and decorations. I've always wanted a white feather wreath, so yesterday I made one for the room. I used a sea foam green ribbon to hang it up.

(one is avaiable in my etsy shop)

This was the first thing I wanted to get done, is the comfy seating area. I wanted a very miss-matching but coordinating pillows. This love seat I also picked up for free a couple of years ago. I will eventually change it out for the white wicker set.

I used mostly vintage fabrics that I have been hording, the "too pretty to use" fabrics. But I decided to go for it and use them as pillows that I would enjoy and see often. :) Some of the fabrics were vintage napkins and runners.

This couch is directly across from the other. Still a work in progress.... I started a patchwork quilt awhile ago and still needs batting, but for now works well on the back of the couch.

More to come on the sunroom soon!

step 1...sunroom

I started my sunroom makeover this weekend. The 1st step I did was take away one of the chairs pictured above, it was a little cramped in the corner, so taking away the chair really opened it up.

I also went through my favorite fabrics and picked out patterns I wanted to make pillows out of. I'm going to use pinks, whites, and blues...staying with the shabby chic look.

I hit the jackpot when I found this wicker love seat and chair for nothing this weekend. My plan of action is to put it in the room as well.

Stay tuned for more progess.... :)

romantic holiday trees

I had a pretty creative weekend last Saturday and Sunday, some of the things I made were these romantic lace trees. I went through my lace collection and used them on these trees. I put some sets up on my etsy page for sale.

There is thre different sets, white and ivory, pink and blue, and blue and white combos.

I made some for myself for when I redo my sunroom in the shabby chic look. Stay tuned for the progress of that makeover!
Leave them out all year round or use them for a romantic holiday!

garden watchers

These little guys I found last year at a estate sale. I couldn't resist not picking them up and giving them a home. I just love the guy in the middle holding the flowers, so cute! They are placed in my sunroom, looking over my gardens.

It looks like they were hand painted years ago. There is a small signature of some sort on the bottom of each one. Either way they are so cute and unique that I couldn't say no to them!
