I put a call out and got some suggestions and ideas and for that I am so thankful. It kick started my thought processes and I was able to get some projects started immediately!
First up, I made some rugs. I made them in a ‘braided rug‘ style. I had made some braided rugs for the Log Cabin a few years ago and I was happy with how they turned out. So I grabbed some supplies and got to work using the same techniques.
I made a big rug for the nursery and two small rugs to go beside the bed in the master bathroom. I also made a rug for the kitchen.
I didn’t stop at rugs. No way! I printed up some book covers and made a few ‘Little Golden Book’ and some Beatrix Potter books for the nursery.
Now to figure out a book shelf for the nursery.....hmmmmm.
I was sorting through my supplies and stash this past week and I stumbled upon a little round wooden table. It was unfinished wood but I wasn’t worried about that! I was more concerned with the size. Would it fit in the kitchen bay window? Would it be too big? I had purchased a perfect table a year or so ago and it was too big for the space....I guess it wasn’t perfect afterall! (But it did make me dream of another project that WILL be perfect for that table!). Could the perfect sized table have been in my stash all along??? I put it into place and it seemed to work. Could a girl get so lucky? I didn’t want a wood table though. But that’s not a problem! I pulled out my paint!
First up the whole paint got a few coats of white paint!
Next up was some red paint for trim! I just love red!!!!
The table looks adorable in the kitchen! But now I need items for on top of the table. So one problem solved but a new problem created! Does this ever end? (I hope not, I’m having too much fun!)
