Wire Cone

A few weekends back, I was cleaning up the garage and I came across some extra wire that I had left over from a previous project.  I love those vintage looking wire cones.  I decided to whip a mini wire cone (literally, it took like five minutes) and I added a real plant with some moss.  I would like to make a larger one to possibly hang on my front door but I would probably paint the wire and add some fake flowers and foliage ... Maybe even a tag or a bow made out of something unique.

No Sew Table Cloth

Remember the {PINK AND DAMASK CRIB SET}, the Mom of this order asked me to take a cheap three legged side table and turn it into something fabulous for her little girl’s nursery.   The pictures didn’t turn out great but you get the idea. 

The table came with a top and three legs that you screw into the top.  I stapled the fabric to the underside of the table top.  Be sure to get your staples as close as you can to the edge.  The fabric was quite a bit longer than the table was tall.  I suggest leaving the fabric long and trim it up once the legs are screwed back in.  Once the stapling was done, I used spray adhesive to attach the fabric to the top of the table.  Hot glue and little bit of trim were used to finish the raw edge of the  fabric.

Pittsburgh Steelers Apron

I whipped up this apron on a Saturday night for a good friends Mom.  Even though I made it, I am a little jealous that I didn’t make myself a Fightin’ Texas Aggie apron.  I totally need to put that on my “to do” list.  {Sorry for the bad photo quality … I used my phone.}

Pink and Damask Crib Set

This is the CUTEST crib set I’ve ever made.  I am in love with all of the fabrics that the Mom picked out and let’s not forget the talent of this Mom! This little girl’s room is so fabulous!!  I made the whole crib set, curtains, pillows, bench seat cover and changing pad cover. 

More Ruffled Aprons …. Finally!

Finally! I have been so busy sewing up orders and my job is taking up so much of my time that I haven’t even had a chance to craft or blog.  Here are some aprons that I whipped up for a customer. She liked my original green aprons {HERE}.  I really like making aprons; they’re quick, easy and make great gifts that can be customized for any personality.

Another Silhouette Project

In my last post I shared the {Silhouette Pallet Art} project that I made with Mrs. S while visiting in Oklahoma.  Mrs. S and I also complete this canvas art project.  Once again, we used the Silhouette to cut out stencils, so we could paint on the canvas.  Mrs. S is going to hang these two pieces above her bed; this scripture was part of her wedding vows. 

Silhoutte Pallet Art With Mrs. S

Got a Silhoutte for my birthday!  Whoop!  I already had a Cricut, but I wanted to upgrade. My Mom is the best!!  I am a little bummed because I have been so busy that I haven’t had a chance to really use it. 

When I was in Oklahoma to see Mrs. S, she wanted me to help her with a pallet art idea.  Her husband brought home a pallet from work, we ripped the wood apart, and Mr. S nailed it back together for us.   We used the Silhoutte to cut out words from cardstock to use as stencils.  We specifically bought “stencil” paint because we didn’t want any bleeding.  The stencil paint is amazing!!  I am so in love with this!! Such as good idea from Mrs. S!!

Velcro Window Treatments

A few weeks ago I went to visit my BFF, Mrs. S, in Oklahoma.  Recently Mrs. S purchased her first home and they have done an amazing job at a renovating and decorating.  Mrs. S made these curtains and I then I helped her revamp them a little bit.  Originally, they were too short and I added the brown fabric for her.  

Can you believe that the curtains are attached with Velcro?! Mrs. S used sticky back Velcro that she added right to the front of the mini blind.  Brilliant idea!  Check out her DYI light!!

I am in love with this table and the feeling of this space is perfect. It’s warm and cozy; you could sit here for hours and talk with friends … Which is exactly what we did all weekend!  I made this table runner for Mrs. S while she worked on a different project. (Will be showing that tomorrow.)
