How to Make a Table Runner in 10 minutes

2 yards of burlap $5.94

You can make 4 runners out of this amount! 

2 yards of ruffle $2.98

I just had a little left over.

ALL the tools I used!

Just hot-glued each ruffle :)

Ta Da... 10 minute table runner :)

Before and After (again) Blue Buffet

I bought this dresser at a yard sale last year for 5 dollars. I refinished it, left some drawers out and put baskets in their spot. Sorry this was the only picture I could find.:) That's my handsome little man, Halloween  last year. It was in my entryway, then when I refinished the other dresser, you can see in previous posts, it ended up in the garage for a few months. And now...............

Ta Da......................Here she is a beautiful blue buffet for my dinning room!

Isn't she pretty!!

Don't look at my dining room wall. Yes, I'm changing the color yet again!! No, I have not decided yet, but I'm thinking in the grey family.

Found this blue and silver tea set at a yard sale for 6 dollars! Everything else I have had in my closet waiting to come out!!!

It's all about "accessories" !!

I'm obsessed with pitchers. This one is my favorite:)

This is what we have been using for a desk chair for the last year. Once upon a time it had a back on it but broke. So I have had my eye out for something for awhile now. I wanted something that rolled but not your basic "computer chair". I really don't like them. I also couldn't just use a chair because I wanted something with wheels.  

 I found this in Vegas while visiting my family. Good Will for only 6 dollars! Yep only 6!

It was in great condition so I sanded it and painted it white. Yes,  it is fast becoming my favorite color! 

My next project(one of many "next") is to refinish the desk that I found at a yard sale when we moved into our home just over a year ago. The white chair is my inspiration to do it! 

Pillow # 4 Finally Done

Finally finished my last pillow! I have had the other 3 done for a few weeks now. I had a hard time deciding what to put on this one. I love how it turned out.

What do you think?

Before and After- Lampshade

These lamps sit on the dressers next to our bed. The color is neutral but not my favorite. So I painted them white and then added a flower ribbon that I found at Hobby Lobby. Love that store!! Hate that I don't have it in my town! 

 I wanted to cover the whole shade in the flower ribbon but at 5 dollars a yard that was not going to happen. I bought 4 yards and it took about 3 just to do what I did. So if you want to do a project like this it can get pricey. Most places have coupons just keep looking! 

My Birthday 9-5
