DIY Sheet Music Wreath
As I mentioned before I have been redoing our bedroom, trying for a more elegant romantic feel. I stenciled the walls in a metallic paint and then I wanted something a little more rustic to add to all the glam of the wall. I found this wreath idea on Pinterest. I love how it turned out and it added just the right touch to the wall to sort of tone it down. This is right above our headboard and it literally took my hubby just two weeks to look up and say "did you add something different to the wall?" He did say he liked it! LOL

Grain sack towel turned cushion
I needed a cushion for my dresser turned bench. I put this in front of my big window in the dining I was searching for material and then remembered I had this vintage grainsack towel my mom in law had given me years ago. It was the perfect size for the bench. I added ruffles to the ends ( I know, no surprise :)) But I do like how it turned out!

DIY drum shade
I am trying to make my bedroom more romantic looking. It was the last room in the house to get painted and it wasn't what I was hoping for. So I am starting to redo it. Starting with a new chandelier, from IKEA (love that store) and I wanted to add a drum shade to it. I started with some chicken wire and formed it in a circle. Then glued on my material that I got at Joanns on sale.
I Love how it turned out, you know how sometimes what is in your head doesn't always turn out , this did YEAH!!!

Burlap Art
I am redecorating my guest bath. I am doing it in some rustic accents with just a little bling thrown in. I made this out of a vintage picture frame. Then cut some cardboard and covered it in burlap and put a trim of jute around the edges. The I took some scrapbooking embellishments and put them on. I like it! I love searching the scrapbooking aisles for stuff to use when decorating. I'll show the rest of the decorations later.

Ruffled lampshade
I decided to add a little bling to my lampshade. I am trying to make my bedroom more romantic looking. I added a ruffle to the top of the shade and ten made a ruffled rosette to the middle and then added a vintage brooch to the center. Something little, but really made a difference.

My Valentine Mantle
I am starting to do a little Valentine decorating. I don't do much but I like to fill my jars and put a couple of banners out. I put this heart banner on my mantle. I ordered this off of Etsy through a very talented lady. I love the pastel colors in the banner and the way she has it held together with silk ribbbon. The images are vintage images that are so sweet.
