They are just beautiful and the smell! Just heavenly! Nothing like a huge field of bluebonnets. I have to admit they are my very favorite of wildflowers.
I'm also working on some small projects for the guest room. You see, I found the perfect chair to go in there which sparked a mini makeover. This chair really spoke to me and gave me a direction to go in this room. The fabric on it is adorable! I love the birds in the bright colors!
Because of the chair, the tablecloth turned curtains no longer go, so I also bought new curtains.
Then two of the decorative pillows no longer matched (they were covered with leftover tablecloth fabric):
Old pillow covers - Pretty but they don't go with the new chair |
Cut them out and ironed them onto the pillow fronts. Next up, I sewed my new pillow covers. Pretty pillows to go with my pretty new chair.

How charming! Looking forward to seeing your beautiful guest room. Love your fabric choices. Jane
ReplyDeleteThanks Jane! Can't wait to get it all done. :-)
DeleteOh...I love the chair fabric! So colorful and fun.The pillows turned out so cute too...I especially love the long one. My guest room has a bird theme as well. I can't wait to see yours completed! Have a great rest of the week!
ReplyDeletePS....those bluebonnets are so beautiful!
Hey Vicky, I was just thinking of you...wondering how your kitchen was going. Birds are the perfect theme. Love my new chair - it really did gel the whole room. :-)
DeleteSuch a pretty pattern. I really like birds. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Theresa. I thought so too. :-) Birds are some of my favorites too so this was just a natural fit.
ReplyDeleteCant wait to see it all, everything your putting into the room is BEAUTIFUL!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Vel!
DeleteOmg! I have that same 'old' fabric! I used it to make curtains in our rental, but I also have it here at the cabin as a tablecloth on the porch.
ReplyDeleteI too like birds (and leaves). Not sure if you remember the lampshades I made with paper last year? They have birds and leaves, and I love the look!
That's funny, Doreen. You have great taste obviously. Lol. My old fabric was actually tablecloths I bought and used for curtains. They were a great find at TJMaxx.
DeleteI remember your lampshade having leaves but not birds. I'm going to have to go back and look at it.
Hi Cecilia, love your new chair and am swooning over your pretty birdie pillows...and the colors! Can't wait to see the room! Happy Easter, Friend!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Cecilia! I hope you had a wonderful Easter. The room looks great and I'll share soon. :-)
