DIY Sunday
Christmas Crafts Decorating Sewing
Christmas came early for me! Carl picked up the exact sewing machine that I wanted (which he saw on my blog!) for me today! I have been making some pillow covers for the pillows on our couch, and I was using hem tape….which worked, but wasn't fabulous! So after he picked up my sewing maching (BOO-YA!), I went to work and covered 5 large pillows, made 2 placemat pillows and make a long oblong pillow. The photos are crap (per usual) and don't really show was a difference the pillows make. BUT, I'm giddy to have those F U G L Y pillows covered!

Not too exciting but soooooo much better!
I also painted my dining room chandy…..Carl installed dimmers and some more lighting! Busy and productive day for sure!

The new pillows and runner are FAB! I can’t wait to see a picture of the new and improved chandy!

Did you use the same pillows and just make new covers? I may need to do that to some of my couch pillows. You did a great job and so did Carl!
