Upholstering Dining room chairs
Upholstering Dining room table chairs One thing about having a table that is painted rather than stained is that it will show up any knicks or dings into the paint. I have a black table that I have had for seven years. It looks pretty darn good other than my chairs. I’ll never forget when the jeans with big buttons and “bling bling” on the butt pockets came out. We had some friends come over to play cards one night and when they left I about killed over because this is how one of my chairs looked I remember just about killing over when I saw it. I was sad!…

Valentine fabric heart shaped wreath
Fabric Heart Shaped Wreath I found this idea on Little Birdie Secrets and followed her tutorial just as described. It was super fast and super easy! I do have to admit though tracking down heart shaped foam wreaths was difficult. NO ONE carried them and it took me looking at three different JoAnn’s stores to finally find one! I had some scraps of fabric that I had purchased at a garage sale last summer to make this wreath. I used my cutting mat to cut the 2×2″ squares. The cutting of the squares went really really fast. Once all squares were cut I used a pencil, wrapped the fabric around…

As a crafter I don’t mind when the holiday merchandise hits the shelves before it is really time because it gets my mind going!

So my advice is go with the vinyl lettering. My Bff and I did the reverse…

New Years organization with Baggallini Bags!
Organizing my life organizing my bag! After the holidays are over I always feel the urge to purge all the junk in my home! I like to get organized for the new year and I like to know where things are. I recognized one evening, while digging through my handbag, that I could not find anything in it and how unorganized it was! I dumped everything out onto my kitchen counter and realized how messy and unorganized my hand bag was. Even my wallet needed de junking! I had left over receipts galore from holiday shopping and loose coupons floating in my purse. ack! what a disaster. Then I learned about…
