house make over continues

these shelves I got at Joanns

they were only six bucks

I forgot to take a before picture

but they started off that new light wood color

so we just painted them black to match the living room.

I am so happy with the way it all turned out!

love it:)

The HOPE picture frames I made

you can see here how

sad sad entertainment center

MEET MY ENTERTAINMENT CENTER...

sad right

we pulled out the nasty back with the old holes in it

I got this paper at Joanns

LOVE IT

70% recycled and so cute

...so i know this looks crazy but just

rip up a ton of your favorite papers

get out the good ol mod podge

place them super randomly

here is a after picture

you can also see my happy couch in this shot

yay does that look so much better or what

sad couch...happy couch

Meet my sad couch

Its a very nice couch I <3 it

however it is sooo low...

it lost its legs

My mother thought we should put it on stilts!!

so we went and got some fabric for a ruffle

so we could raise it:)

we cut seven inch strips

we had to make room to sew in a

very tight space.

mom introduced me to a new best friend...

Ashley + heat n bond = love

this is the couch flipped over..

pinning the ruffle on

It was harder for me cause I am a weakling..

HAPPY COUCH

mama and tyger

ahhhh I LOVE him SO much!!!

HOPE

I saw these HOPE picture frames on HERE!
I fell in love with them:) so I wanted to do them but
to fit my house:) I had no idea what burlap even was tell I
saw her post!! and it totally fits the vibe of my house SOOO
I think I may have to make the pillows like she does HERE!



I got these nasty picture frames at the dollar store..
 they just needed a little paint, so I painted them black!!!

cut my burlap to match the inside of the

frames..in this case 8.5 by 11 in

Then I drew out the word HOPE

and cut it out on some black fabric:)

It doesn't show it in the picture but I pinned

the letters down...... makes life easier

then sew your letters on to the burlap.
AND I GOT .............
THIS as my final project!

also I didn't keep the glass in

the frames...don't know why I just liked that

look better I suppose:)

SO thanks Humble Homemaker

totally LOVE your blog and creativity
