crafting...

These last few months I've learned SO much! Thanks to a few wonderful classes before I graduated and my love of recycling/re-storing things to their original beauty, I have been able to make some things that I'm sort of proud of...

Made this tablecloth with a reverse stripe border...

and with the extra fabric, I made a couple pillow covers (with an invisible zipper!).

I made the pillow and the pillow cover for this bolster. Now it matches our duvet cover!

My pride and joy is this quilt! It took me a good few weeks of long hours and deadlines but I did it and I'm so excited to use it this winter! (I know... haven't used it?! But it's a winter thing!)

I also learned how to make these fun books! I love this new skill and who knows? You might just get one for a present!

Lastly, this lamp I bought at D.I. was pretty but a little plain...

So I spiced it up to my (apparently) new favorite color! Everything turns out something blue.

And I antiqued it with a little glaze.

I love my crafts.
