I'm still loving having a new house to decorate, although I have to be creative since the budget puts a major damper on my ideas. Here are some of the things I've had fun doing lately. (However, I didn't make the pin cushion pictured above. It was a Farmer's Market splurge. Isn't it so cute?)
DI, the second-hand store, has become one of my favorite haunts. You could say I'm probably on their preferred customer list now. I know, I know, the rest of you are so envious. I've made cupcake stands, jewelery dishes, and soap dishes by gluing old dishes together. It's fun, inexpensive, and the possibilities are endless. Ironically, the middle plate on the cupcake stand below matches my grandma's china. I got it at DI here, and she lives in Georgia. You just never know what you'll find at DI. :)
I made swags from IKEA fabric and last year's Christmas ornaments.
I covered old vinyl records with scrapbook paper and made a collage of them on my bedroom wall.
Here is my favorite little bedroom retreat. I love the black vinyl chandelier silhouette.
And here is where you will find me when I'm cold, which is just about every day, now that winter is almost here.
