i didn't make the bench and shelf, but am so in love with this fab etsy find. i've been eyeing the pottery barn samantha bench and shelf for a long time, but it's nearly $900. yikes! i found this masterpiece on etsy. not only is it an exact replica, but handmade (probably better quality), i got to choose the stain after multiple discussions and samples, and it was $300 including shipping! if you are interested, search tin barn creations on etsy. i then painted square canvases and hot glued (with just a dab) the photos of the babes. i intended to modge podge them for a more finished look, but want to change the pictures every photo shoot, so decided not to. i painted cute wooden shapes from michael's with chalkboard paint and wrote each child's name on a basket, which right now holds many of their shoes and prized possessions.
i love reusing fabric. i covered wood pieces from home depot with left over fabric to spruce up my not quite finished new built ins. there are a few more on the other side. the bottom left has a burlap covered canvas with more left over fabric and a painted "C." my mom helped me remat the frames on both sides with burlap to replace the boring white mats.
i ordered these distressed EAT letters from etsy a while back before i realized how capable i was. they were boring, so i cut up an old custom table runner made of fabric from ballard designs and covered some canvases and glued the letters on. much more fun!
can't claim this one, but my mom recovered our dining room chairs with some great fabric by premier prints from fabric.com. love them! my grandparents refinished the table and chairs which originally were my great grandparents as a wedding gift for us. it's a beautiful set, but eventually we would like a table that seats more. for now, though, the chairs flow with the decor of the house.
cute front door wreaths that i literally copied exactly from some i found on etsy. the burlap has yellowed a bit from the sun, but they are still adorable! next up are some fall wreaths.
next up...a "FALL" burlap pennant banner, wreaths, a wooden sign, and more prints.
