This Summer I have been a little busy creating, arranging and decorating my home,
here are some projects I have been working on;
***Upholstery an old chair
My mother gave me this chair long time ago, I like it and it's very comfortable but It was time to give it a BIG MAKE-OVER! lol so I did!
I purchased some fabric at Old Time Pottery, got some decorative trimming, painted the wood frame and legs. This will be my first time doing this, at the beginning it was intimidating but once I got the hang of it, I was in a roll.
I think is coming out just fine. My sofa has a Cream/Beige with slightly gold stripes cover so, I wanted to continue with the same color value.
Now, comes the best part of all; The Back and The Cushion which I'm still contemplating and some what scared on how to start, but I know I'll find my way to finish my favorite chair before school/work starts.
What do you think? Have you ever Upholstery a furniture?
***Making some Wall Art
I purchased this wall decal at Old Time Pottery of a Bird Cage that goes well with my theme decor, I had some black foam board and use acrylic paint to give it an old wood look background technique.
I used a Small Sawtooth wall hanging, glued it with hot glue on the back of the foam board.
VOILA!
***More Framed Bird Cage
Another Bird Cage fro my collection, I used an old frame and place the Bird Cage in the center with some Peacock Feathers. Love it!
***Inspirational Idea: Purse Rack
I found this fabulous idea to keep my purses organized at Pinterest.com.
I bought a Steel Rail Rack from IKEA with some S-hooks, drilled some holes and VOILA!
No more step stools, trying to reach for a purse when I need it! I Love It!
***New Tray Table for my beautiful birds.
I bought this tray table at Old Time Pottery along with a Metal Book Box and some more beautiful birds.
Gotta Love Them! I Do!☺♥☺
