I’m so happy to report that it finally feels like a real live room in there and not a shady lean-to off of someone’s old backyard shed.
I’ve been in a big-time Easter decorating mood this year so here’s another ridiculously simple idea for ya.. At the start of the Easter decorating season (you know, when they catalogues come out and get you thinking about this stuff), I once again remembered how much I love those big fancy Easter baskets you can get from some places like Pottery Barn Kids and the fabric liners that you can get to go with them.I give them a good stare-down every year and this year was no different.
I almost ALMOST actually went ahead and bought one this year, but then I remembered who I was and that coming up with practically free solutions to these things is kinda what I do..I remembered that I have this giant Easter basket already that I picked up at a thrift store a few years ago for $3.It was a little orangey so I white-washed it with a mixture of Light Antique White Crafter’s Acrylic (DecoArt) and water..
I love the kinda French country look it gives the basket.Then I realized that all those fabric basket liners are is a big oval of fabric with some ties.
And I could probably manage something to that extent on my own.. Now, this is not a no-sew project, because that would mean that I was making a basket liner exactly the same way as the “real” ones, but without sewing.
This basket liner is completely fake in everyway., and also my fresh.
green pistachio variation.I’m partnering up with.today to help bring you a little bit of Spring cleaning and everyday cleaning motivation and inspiration.
Who can’t use a little more of that?🙂 I’ve been having so much fun with my new V6 Absolute that Dyson sent me recently and I’ve wanted to use it for everything so I’m really starting to maximize its potential.
