Table for Two

 This is what the table in the sun room looked like yesterday.  I was organizing my napkins, runners, etc., and came across the red items, so I decided to make the table a totally valentine table and changed out the napkins and plates.  :)  I also placed a lovely cupids figurine under the dome I made from Habitat items.



The windows in this room face the East and look out on to a view of gentle 

rolling hills. The morning sun streams in and warms the room.

 I have had this little cupids piece for a very long time.  I think I got it at Eckerd Drugs years ago.  It's not even Eckerd Drugs anymore.  It's now Rite Aid. I think they had cuter things a long time ago than they do now.
The flowers in this bouquet are from Dollar Tree, as is the ribbon and garland.  I received roses from my husband in the vase a number of years ago.
 The little red bird nest is an old Christmas decoration.  I've probably had it for 25 years or more.  I have quite a few of them.  They're pretty sitting on the branches of the Christmas tree.
 The napkin is from Wal Mart, napkin rings from Good Will, and the little cupid here was also bought at Eckerd Drugs years ago.
 This is a view of the entire table.
 Notice I've added the glasses in this photo. (Change, change, change.  :)  )

 I made this little stand from a candle stick and an old plate I bought at Habitat Restore.  I've had the doilies a long time.  The dome is from Habitat too.

  2. Your table is very pretty. Don't you just love it when you can pull together a new look with things you already have? The last few things I've bought have been red. I'm thinking Valentines, July 4th and then Christmas... will get lots of use.

  16. So nice to see someone else ready for love day:) Your centerpiece is so very pretty, but mister cupid under the dome is just super clever. Have a great night! Just a reminder too about the newbie linky party...lots of gals are excited about it, and it is a great way to meet like minded creative women, like yourself.

Thrifty Bookcase Makeover

About a year ago, I was working on a photo gallery area at the lake home. There is an area about 7x7 between the living room, and the hall bath. I bought a really inexpensive ($20.00) bookcase to use there to hold family photos. I hurriedly placed photos on it, and didn't think much about it.   The last time we were at the lake, I was sitting there looking at how badly it looked, wondering what I could do to spruce it up a little.  It had all colors/types of picture frames -red, pink floral, wood, brass, you name it!   I remembered seeing adhesive shelf liner at the Dollar General the day before.  So I made a quick trip back there, and bought one 9 ft. roll for less than $3.00.  I know this is not an original idea and has been done by lots of people, but I wanted to show you anyway.   First, I emptied out all the photos, pulled out the shelves, measured, and cut the paper to fit inside the bookcase.  I also took all the photos out of the frames and w...

Stenciled Burlap Pillow

I just have to share my no sew pillow project.  I had some burlap fabric in my fabric stash, and decided I would use it to cover a pillow.  First, I found an old pillow I no longer use.  I spread the burlap out on the floor and laid my pillow on it so I could cut the fabric big enough to cover it.  I was so intent on the project, I didn't make any pictures of the process. Once the burlap was cut, I folded in the sides about an inch, and glued it down with Tacky Glue, pressing it down several times with my fingers.  I did this all the way around the fabric, and laid it aside to dry over night.  The Tacky Glue dries clear. My next step was to determine how I could lap the fabric over the cushion in an envelope fashion.  I had tried to get my computer to print out a graphic that would show up on the burlap, but printer problems interfered with that plan, so I found the center, and stenciled it with the tree stencil I bought at Michael's. ...
