No Brainer Title {Pillows}

How do ya'll come up with clever titles? I'm lucky to actually name what the item is!
I've been wanting some new pillows for the living room, but was not going to pay craziness for them. I knew sorta, kinda, a little bit about what I wanted. Now, how to do it...
She saved the day once again! I'll let her come up with the brains and I'll just copy! Brittany gave a clear tutorial. :)
There are some issues with the sewing, but I'll not point them out. Who am I kidding? There will always be issues with my sewing! LOL!

Buffet

This is what I've been working on today! (The previous owner was a little slap happy with the crackle paint). I'm trying to decide if I like what I've done with it! It'll probably stay, because goodness knows I don't wanna paint it again! :)

A Little Change

I've been wanting to do something different with this corner. I had my scrapbook magazines there, but it was the first glance when you walk into the room. It just wasn't floating my boat.
When all else fails, use flowers! LOL! (I use to give beginning piano lessons. A couple of sisters and their friend took lessons at the same time, so while I was working with one, the others waited on the couch. I heard the one lean over and tell her friend that I must really like flowers! HA! I took a glance around the room and realized it was beginning to look like a funeral home. I've tamed down a bit. LOL!)Now, it looks all purdy!
(I may add something in front of the box, but not sure yet what it will be. Maybe a flower?!? Just kidding!)


I've got plans for these guys, too.

I Think I'll Die...

with a paint brush in my hand! People's!!!!! I know you think I should have everything painted by now, but it just hasn't happened. I will not bore you with every detail that I have been getting into, but whateva...I've been painting and caulking! :) I've been working on our kitchen and dining room today. I have some ideas in my head, but it's highly likely that it won't come out as planned. LOL! However, we're getting there. I'm loving bits and pieces of the following:From 3.bp.blogspot.com

B & A Picture Frames

I was inspired by Brittany when she transformed some pictures to make shell art! I kept looking and looking for square frames, but everything was priced out the wazoo! I finally found some smaller ones at The Christmas Tree Shop (luuuuuv that store).
Quite frankly, I didn't think they were very cute, but they were square and you know how obsessed I've been with spray paint lately! LOL!After inhaling some potent fumes and digging into my scrapbook stash...Please excuse the crookedness of the middle one...it's been fixed! ;) I'm linking this up to Thrifty Decor Chick's Party.
