Sitting Pretty

Grandma Lila's needlework pillow looks a bit like cabbage roses and works perfectly in the sewing chair in the Pantry / Sewing Room. 


inherited -- if I find this in the shed I want to put it at the cottage

Off the Wall

When you can't find exactly the wallpaper border that you want, you MAKE some!  That's right...I printed some vintage toiletries pictures onto Manila paper, cut it to the width I needed, and covered it with clear Contact paper to waterproof it.  Custom wallpaper border that didn't really cost anything because I already had what I needed around the house! 

You repair things with tools. You FIX things with a hammer.
