Lace and Spray Paint...

4 comments:
I bought a 'G' and "B" letters cut from wood.... sprayed a layer of primer and the a layer of white...
Then I layed a piece of old curtain lace over the letters, and sprayed a layer of black.. and Voila!

Pretty Kool, don't ya think? And I can still use the lace for other paint projects.
I sprayed a light layer of clear sealer just to protect the paint..
Now to figure out what to use for decoration,,, I am toying with using some old earrings to glue on for that little bit of Bling!

Cashmere Scarves.... aka 'Rags-2-Riches'...

I have been a bit busy in my Sewing room this weekend...
I love Cashmere sweaters,,, and have been collecting them from Thrift shops.. so I can re-purpose them... I look for sad, worn, moth bitten, stained ones that sell for a few dollars and then I wash and dry them and then I take my scissors to them...
 measure,, cut,,,
 and then off to my sewing machine...
 snuggly warm...
 this was my Saturday's work...
 can you see the bling?
Oh my! they are multiplying!
I add a little bit of bling to each scarf..
Thank goodness Christmas is coming up!  heeheehee!

Rainy Saturday

6 comments:
Today is one of those days, where I should be in my sewing studio (you know, the room where it looks like an explosion occurred!)... and do some organizing,,, I have so many UFO's (un-finished objects-projects)... that I should finish up or at least pack away with all the other UFO's..
Honestly, I do eventually get around to completing them,,, but today is not the day to do so! haha!
'Wool/Felt project. and 'YoYo' book marker.
Coffee Themed pillow case for a friend.

SO with this much needed rain, I am feeling a bit lazy,,,   

 in no hurry to get anything done,,, well except the breakfast dishes... and maybe have another cup of coffee...
YeeHaw! have a fabulous Saturday,,, I know I will!
