Pink Stitches 1-Year Blogiversary Giveaway!


My blogging BFF Bonnie over at Pink Stitches is celebrating her one year blogiversary and she's asked me to participate!

Of course I was delighted to!  I made these two pillow covers to give away to one lucky reader!

Her giveaway will begin Monday, January 23 at 8:00 am!

***GIVEAWAY CLOSED***

The first is a pillow cover for an 18x18 pillow.

They're sweet little birdies on a wire:

**Inspiration for this pillow from Bless 1234***




The second pillow cover is for a 16x16 pillow.

It's a colorful bunting pillow cover!




I hope you'll stop by for your chance to win!

She will be celebrating all week!  I can't wait to see all the amazing things she has planned!

Happy 1-year Bonnie!!

A Chair Fit For A QUEEN!


This chair is another prime example of my decorating ADD.  I first refinished this chair into a vibrant blue last October.  I loved it - but after I painted the office dark gray, I wasn't feeling the blue with the gray.

I thought a wild pink would look so much better! And it does!

I primed it, then painted it two different shades of pink.  I put them on quickly and real sloppy - I didn't want the chair to look "new." 

After the paint dried, I made up a glaze with one of the pinks and added a little purple to it.  This made it more of a berry color.  I used the berry glaze instead of the traditional antiquing glaze.  LOVE IT!

Now it's a chair fit for a QUEEN! AKA me! :)





Below you can see the progression of the chair.

I kind of feel bad for the chair right now, because it is dark and rainy, and in a dark grey office.  So the lighting doesn't do it justice.  Believe me, it looks awesome!



Be sure to stop by tomorrow!  I'm part of an entire week of giveaways over at my pal Bonnie's blog,

Cheers!
