Dining Room Cabinet Makeover

I transformed my dining room china cabinet into an entryway chest.  The cabinet was only $40.00 (including delivery) at one of my favorite thrift stores. 1/2 off sale day.   I moved it from the dining room to the entry way.  It's now storage for my candles and a great place to drop off mail.  I also included before and after photos of the entryway/dining area.  Wall were painted from yellow to green   and bought new rugs and accessories. 

AFTER Glued Sea Grass Wallpaper ($1.00 roll from yard sale) to front of drawers. Most handles are original with exception of 2 doors.  Please don't mind the water bottles, purse, keys, etc.  sitting on top. CLICK ON PHOTO TO ENLARGE.

Christmas Snowman Tassels

I made this tassel out of an old cookie jar.  The top of the tassel is the lid of the jar.

This tassel is made from a salt shaker. 

Vintage End Table Embellished With WALLPAPER

Shabby look vintage end table ($3.00) that I embellished with wallpaper ($1.00 roll) under the glass.

Owl Greeting Cards

    Made some owl greeting cards.  I used the Sentimental Cricut Cartridge.   I  love to add the eyelash knitting yarn tied around the fold for some texture.  It's soft and comes in lots of colors.  I buy mine at JoAnn's. 

Laundry Room Update

AFTER:    New paint color, jumbo clock & carpet runner

Carpet runner from Lowe's. (Clearance $15.00)  I love it!  It looks like an Amy Butler pattern.

I kept the curtains & a few accessories.

Beachy Glass Ornaments

Beachy Glass Ornaments 

 

 

 

 

 

Last Christmas VINTAGE FELT ELVES UNDER GLASS made their debut at our house.  This year I went for more SHIMMER by adding my "beachy" glass ornament to an existing candle display.  I added the extra large red and silver ornament to the mix.  By using my existing decorations it will be a quick take-down after Christmas.
