new chair cover: before and after
this morning’s quick project. who doesn’t want to sit on toadstools? lovely fabric from Brooklyn General Store.
natural wood trellis
i made this wood branch trellis tonight. I think I’ll cut off the top parts so it’s just a rounded arch. but here it is in all it’s glory, a trellis for my morning glories! **UPDATE** seriously? when is this thing going to bloom already?!
