Home ~ Sweet ~ Home

I have been really busy lately creating.   I should be painting my bedroom (I did pick a color)but there are just not enough days in the weekend.

My sister just moved into a new home and I have been wanting to make a pocket pillow.  So today I pulled out the sewing machine and burlap and got to work making a housewarming gift for her. 

I got this awesome image with French writing and furniture at Graphics Fairy.  I printed it onto muslin and then tea dyed it.  Nothing escapes the tea dye around here.  Its so much fun to take something that looks new, throw it into hot tea, iron it and like magic it looks like its been around forever.
