Easter Decor

I know it's a little late.  My blog page has been having issues.  Now that I have figured it out. I still wanted to share.  These fun Easter decorations.

Shopping bag aprons and glam cups

We has some old neighbors, who's son passed away.   I made these for a benefit, to raise funds for this sweet family.  I wish I could have done more to help. Aren't these reusable shopping bag aprons darling?  I saw them on studio5.  I have them linked on pinterest also.  They link you to a tutorial on studio5.

re-vamped porch swing

My sweet neighbor gave us her old swing.  It did not have any cushions on it.  A little garage sale shopping,  and some leftover fabric.  I was able to make my own for only $1.75!

Updating an old picnic table

Drama Mama

My front room is now complete. I just finished adding a panel to my curtains. I wanted them floor to ceiling. Very dramatic! Don't you think?

Strange Bird

My grandma, has had this picture hanging in her home. I have always loved it!!! I knew it was the missing part to complete my front room makeover. I knew how special, this picture was to my grandma. It belonged to my great grandma, a friend had drawn it for her. It hung in their home, while my grandmother was growing up. My husband suprised me! he asked my grandma, if he could take a picture and make a print for me. I know the picture is a little risk-a. I love it, and It proudly hangs in my front room. It was the missing link. It has brought the whole room together.

Front room re-do almost done!!!

As you can see it is coming together. I just aquired another chair today! That I will redo.

Every couch and chair needs a few pillows:)

The frame

I found this at the DI $6. Which is way more than, I would normally pay. I am cheap!!! It was to awsome to pass up. A little paint and she is beautiful. I am someday soon, I hope! Going to put a print or family picture in it, and hang it up!

60"s clock redo

I guess you can say. I am a horder of sorts. I always see awsome stuff at garage sale's. That I cannot pass up. I found this last summer for .25. I had no clue what to do with it. It has been sitting in my garage. Look at it now!

Foot Stool re-cover

Found this at DI for $2. I new it was a must have! Looks awsome in my front room!

Cutest thing ever

My cute new friend Amy, decorates the heck out of gas station cups. Aren't these cute? I gave it a try. I thought they would make, fun girlfriend gifts!

Living room redo

My front room was pretty boring. I have been collecting random items at garage sale's. Then I saw this couch, that I needed to have. Guess what? It showed up here on Christmas day. It was all coming together. The next week I wall papered, hung my swag lamp, made a frame for my mirror, and recovered a chair. It's not quite done. I'm in the home strech. I will post more pic's when I get it all finished.
