Glass Redo Projects

I bought this brown glass (below) many years ago from a thrift shop.  My husband spray painted it red for me.  I love it.  He did do a base coat first which I think was a light brown or something.

What a difference a coat of paint makes!  This is now the coffee pod holder!
 He also painted some of my Ball jars too!  We wrapped newspaper around them and used some painters tape.  He sprayed the inside of the jars.  This one I put rocks in the bottom and then put some Crimson Flowers in it. This way the plant can drain.  I'm doubt putting holes in the bottom of these jars would work out very nicely.

This made a great Mother's day gift!
I hope all you Mother's out there had a great day Sunday!  I know I did!

Change it up

I just loved this fabric when I saw it.  It's soft, almost fleece like.  I covered this pillow below. 

 I have two of these that I had made over a year ago.  I was bored with them, so I just added the blue cover. 

What color would you have picked?

Leave me a comment! Let me know you stopped by!

Embroidered Linen and Burlap Sign

 Spring is definitely in the air. The next five days say sunny and at least in the 40's...that's a heat wave for us around Chicago. My tulips in front of my house are already coming up!

 In the spirit of Spring, I did up these Burlap and linen embroidered Spring signs. I stuffed them with some cotton and added a wood leaf button.

 My baby seems kinda aloof to the whole thing.  Quietly reading by the bookcase. Ok. Probably not reading, but definitely paging through ALL of our books.

 You can make your own Spring sign or you can grab one from my shop here.
I hope everyone has a great weekend!  What are you going to do?
