Towel Purse

Happy Wednesday!!  I'm joining Kara today for "Look what I made".  Check out her page to see all the creative ideas that all of you have come up with over at Creations by Kara.

Here is just one of the things that I have made, yes this was my first attempt at this one.  Upon reading all of the wonderful posts out there, I found this cute idea out on Sweet Charli's and thought I would try it.  My daughter loves bright colors and polka dots so I found this towel at the Dollar Store and the handles were on sale at JoAnn Fabrics for $2.00 and so I figured if I messed up, oh well right!!  I made the flowers out of ribbon I already had so total cost = $3.00!!  Not bad!

So here is the cute little purse I came up with. I did wash it but didn't iron it yet so excuse the wrinkles.  lol

Next time, I would recommend a little heavier towel but wanted to see what happened.  Pretty cute!!

Have a great day!!

Nook Chairs - ME Monday's

Happy Monday!!  I am sharing my cute ME Monday cushions I just made.  Vicki at Cherry Chick is hosting this for today and I wanted to share these :)  She posts the cutest things.    Please hop on over to see all the cute items people have posted at Cherry Chick. 

I decided I needed some new cushions on the chairs to pull things together in the nook.  Very quick and simple and I think they turned out so cute :)
The shot from the top isn't the greatest but you'll get the idea from the back shot :)  I love the little ties on the back.

Basic sewing project, quick and simple.  Don't you just love it when things come together???

Have a great day!

Nook Light Redo

Happy Thursday!!  So little by little, I'm starting to get everything coordinated in my kitchen nook area with bringing my pop of color in.  We have this light, yet very plain and blue mind you, hanging over our small table in the nook area.  My husband doesn't want me to paint the shade so I will honor his wish on that and the solutions is!!!  To cover it in fabric so I can change it as my mood guides me.  lol!!  I have never done this before so let's just see how this one turns out :) So here is the before

And here is the after!!   I am also working on some chair cushions to blend it all together so stay tuned :)

I'm kinda lovin it :)  Have a great day!!
