Today is "A Few of My Favorite Things" over at Laurie's place.
One of my favorite things to do is browse through craft and decorating idea mags. I even liked to browse through them online. And since it started pouring rain tonight, I thought I would grab a cup of tea and read some of my favorite sites. Here are a few super simple ideas I ran across.
These all come from Better Homes and Gardens.
Flower Buckets

Fabric yo-yo eggs

Use a pretty brooch and ribbon as a tie back

This is one I like to do on a fairly regular basis....beaded bracelets as napkin rings

Photo Transfer lampshade

Heritage Photo Display


A fabric ribbon bed skirt

Decorative Orbs

Bath Towel Table cloth (3 bath towels sewn together with some added rick rack).

Frame free from Mother Nature

Embellish some cheap towels or napkins

Embroidered stationary

Burlap Flatware Holders


So many good ideas! I like the buttons on the towels!
ReplyDeleteGood ideas. I might even learn to do. Thanks have a good weekend
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas- I've actually done the burlap flatware holder idea and have used towels for summer tablecloths- great for cookouts! Love the stationary!

I've done a few of these but I still want to do the lampshade photo and I love the burlap bags too! Thanks for the post!

Thanks for all these great ideas, Diann!...Christine
ReplyDeleteLove all of these ideas! How fun would the beach towel tablecloth be with a shore theme!
ReplyDeleteNot too long ago I was in the cutest little shop (originally someone's cottage home) and the curtains were all just tons of ribbon streamers hanging down. That day they had the windows open and a gentle breeze was blowing and the ribbon streamers were just fluttering....so sweet. that bed you showed reminded me of that. Have a super great week.
ReplyDeleteI love the flower buckets! Thanks for all the other great ideas, too!
ReplyDeleteA lot of cute ideas - thanks for sharing them with us.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by. I would have thought your area of the country would at lease have daffodils and iris by now.
