Empty mirror frame..the mirror broke many years ago, so hopefully any residue of bad luck has dissipated. I painted the frame black, then dry brushed the detail with some bronze paint so it has a bit of depth. Then just hung 3 blue plates in the empty frame. I think I need bigger plates, but these are the size I have. Free project. Now I am working on knitting a yellow/goldish aka Cornsilk pillow cover for a 12x18 free pillow to replace the needlepoint. The chair in the corner (Chloe's favorite sleeping spot) has been "covered" with an old Mattelasse bedspread.
The guest room is getting cozier and cheaper by the minute. What projects are you working on?

Well, look at you! All thrifty and crafty. I am finishing up a set of embroidered dishtowels for #1's wedding shower, hope she likes them.
ReplyDeleteWhat a neat idea! I really like this. Your guest room is lovely and cozy. Anyone staying there would be so welcome.

Hope that you are having a great week,

ReplyDeleteIt's looking great, Janet. I like the plates hanging inside the frame.
ReplyDeleteI'm still working on our bedroom. I'm just not finding the wow factor that I want.
I like what you did Janet. The only at home project I am working on is to redo the family room "library" before Thanksgiving and the crowd arrives. ~ Lynn
