Moving Thrifty Treasures Around

Little hen joins good will finds,  the tray and tea pot.  Place mats are from consignment shop.

This milk glass vase was a thrifty find.  The candle sticks were bought at a little shop in the mountains several years ago.  They were dark green, but recently got a coat of white spray paint. 
This pedestal is from Ross or TJ Maxx.  The little bird came from a consignment shop.

I've been moving everything around (AGAIN).  I painted and waxed this table last week with ASCP.  I really like the new look.  Someone suggested I put a less formal center piece on the table, and they were right.  This is much better.

  11. Hi, Hopped over from Marty's. I love your little chic-a-dee with her babes. My friends tease me and say I change my decor weekly. Hey, It has to be dusted anyway. Why not mix it up a little? LOL! Life's never dull around my house. I have a bit of milk glass too. I always love a pop of white. Now following you.

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. ...
