When Life Gives You Lemons.........

 Just decorate your table with them  :)

Today I am sharing a few items I found at Good Will and Consign and Design.  I think I spent around $13.00 for everything and found some really neat things.  I found 4 of these placemats with lemons for $4.00.  They are made really well.

Found a great decorating book for $1.50 at Good Will.

My visit to Good Will also allowed me to make a new vignette for my breakfast table.

I bought the tray for $1.91, the white tea pitcher for $ 2.92, and the little arrangement was also $2.92.  
I think these makes a nice vignette used together.  I will probably paint the tray soon.  I already had the white bowl, rooster S/P shakers, and the lemons.

For a around 13 bucks my breakfast table got a whole new look and I'm lovin' it!!!





Isn't it all pretty together???  I think so.

I'll be partying with these ladies in the next few days.  Be sure to drop by for a visit with them.  You'll have a great time!

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. ...
