Fun Fabric Ideas

Hi Everyone,



  I confess, I love all  objects for the home that are custom and beautifully handcrafted, but do not like the price tag that comes along with such finds.  So if at all possible I try to craft and put together on my own to give certain elements of my home a "custom" and unique look.  I was recently asked by HOMETALK to curate a list of fun fabric ideas that won't break the bank and give  elements of your home that one of a kind look.

 I recently purchased a consigned wing  chair and reupholstered in linen adding trim and nail head trim for a custom look.









I completed a girls bedroom and added a few DIY projects.  These cute lampshades are an adorable addition to Lauren's Bedroom and the fabric rosettes on the painted branches add a little whimsy and interest to the focal wall.



The Fabric Rosettes

The easiest way to add a custom look in any room in the house is throw pillows.  Here I sewed budget friendly pillows that are trendy and fun.

Lastly, I redid a footstool, added a linen pillow with ballet slipper ties and rosettes for a cute addition to my daughter's bedroom.



 I hope you enjoyed this rundown of fun fabric ideas for the home. Please visit HOMETALK for much more fabulous fabric pictures and tutorials and huge thanks to HOMETALK for allowing me to curate this fun board.

Have a wonderful, fun weekend!!

XOXO,

SK

Little Sister's Big Girl Bedroom Reveal

Hi everyone,

 I hope your week has been great! Once again I spent the week putting the finishing touches on Jordan's room. I can now say it is finally done.... thankfully.  This makeover was relatively budget friendly, exception being the purchase of the frame and mattress.
Jordan loves her new room, especially one of her favorite dresses, now to small for her, but is used as an accessory on the wall.  I toyed with the idea of framing it, but knew it would compete with the windows above.

 

I just finished completing these panels, with a blue/gray linen fabric purchased from Joanns' with a 40% off coupon.  The wing upholstered chair, my toughest DIY  to date,  is nestled in a corner, with a linen pillow I pulled together a few weeks ago.  The quilt, her grandmother sewed several years ago and I can't quite depart with.  The art work I completed a few days ago, too.

 



The dresser was previously in her other room, I just painted a mirror I had on hand and added a little fluff.

 

I purchased all the bedding at target in the shabby chic section.  I love the trendy fabric with the traditional shabby chic!

 

A view of the other side of the bed. 

A wooden artwork I stenciled with gray and yellow oil paint.  Her birth date is stenciled in the corner and difficult to read.   I couldn't find the right angle to photograph.

 The artwork I painted using left over paint and I used chalkboard paint underneath.  I know to some it may look undone, but I kind of like the less formal straight line look. 

 

So there it is...the finished bedroom.  Now to tackle the MESS behind that door!

 Thanks so much for viewing this blog.  Please let me know what you all think...I do love to read all your sweet comments.  

Enjoy your weekend!!

XOXO
