Back to the succulent pillow project - time to sew all the pieces together! I'm figuring it out as I go along, as this is my first time sewing crochet, and the pattern I'm using doesn't really have any guidance.
Since buying our house almost 16 years ago I’ve been looking for a rug to go in the family/livingroom. Today the search ended. I’m in love! #Rugs#Decorating#TerrysRug#Ottawa
What’s the best way to hang pictures 4 meters above the floor?
Throw darts? 🎯
Kidding, but seriously, it’s higher than I can reach on stepladder. #decorating#pictures#home#art
“Don’t think about making art, just get it done. Let everyone else decide if it’s good or bad, whether they love it or hate it. While they are deciding, make even more art.” – Andy Warhol
From me: A Bird Wizard I drew, and an apple sale I came upon in the country, got 35 pounds of apples for $15
I'm sitting in our living room watching an amazing job my husband did on the wall behind the furnace today. It really looks good but does not fit into our living space at all. It's too neat, too sterile. It's something you'd see in magazines, but it has no soul. Luckily, my husband and I share the view on this problem.
I almost feel violated with the neatness of it all. It doesn't feel like my home ... we need to fix this soon as possible 😳
Just completed this first in a series of vintage botanicals.
Pink and white flowers and a small wasp are shown inside a gilded greenhouse-like wire cage. Hope you like it.
#Bathroom update: It's all done! I LOVE how it turned out. Kudos to my handyman hubby, who did all the work. Hope everyone who voted (unanimously!) on the floor tiles likes the finished result. #diy#house#decorating
We've been busy working on our front porch, which needs the railing re-painted and the deck restained. As part of the process of cleaning things, I tried brasso at first and then Bar Keeper's Friend on an outdoor big box store decoration that was badly tarnished.
That was certainly a mistake...resulting in pulling out my exterior paints and redoing it. I also touched up the wood mini-fence we made along the wall that covers the old concrete porch residue.
