Happy day-after-Halloween Friday! I wanted to give you a quick peak at what I have been up to this week (besides single-parenting - the Professor has been out of town at a conference).
Mostly I have been working on this...
... a pile of cushions for a boat. 8 cushions, to be exact, all different! This picture doesn't really look like progress, but, trust me, it is! This project was the push I needed to get my new machine and I think we have finally worked out some kinks and (knock on wood!) it's working well :) I'm not quite dreaming in "Pacific Blue" yet, but if I don't wrap up this project soon, I will be ;)
And this is what I have been working on in between...
Before, and now after...
Remember this? That was practice for this project. The color is Screen Door from Vintage Farmhouse Paints. And this is an old IKEA buffet that we got in the As-Is room YEARS ago (yes, it too, has lived in all of our houses). So, it was a fun piece to try this look out on.
A little distressing and a finishing coat of MMS Furniture Wax and some bling. The knobs are from Hobby Lobby - I love that they are a little bit sparkly, but still substantial, with just a little bit of patina.
It's not styled yet (and I was working with a different camera, so I couldn't quite capture what I wanted to), but it's part of my new office space that, hopefully, I can show you next week.
So, what have you been up to this week?
