Office Chair Pink-over

Hello again blog land, Today I’m showing a quick and easy project. I got the inspiration from a pin on Pinterest. You can see it here. I have 4 UGLY office chairs I need to recover in my house. I started with E’s first cause it looked like the easiest one to do and I want to be done with her room pink-over.

I started out by taking the back and seat off. I laid each piece on the floor on top of the fabric and eyeballed about two inches out. Fro the seat I just cut a square and started stapling away.

For the back I tried to cut the fabric more to it’s shape. I then pinned the two pieces together and sewed a all the edges except for the bottom. On the bottom I did a zig zag stitch to hem it.

Next I added bow’s using some polka-dotted ribbon to cover up the over hang on the sides and to “cute” it up a bit.

I had to add a little bling! I wanted to use rhinestones but my i-rock tool is broken. To make the E I used my Expression and some vinyl to make a stencil. Then I used modge podge to fill in the E and sprinkled very fine glitter over it, removed the vinyl stencil.

Thanks for visiting, come again soon!

Pink-a-palooza!

That is what it feels like at my house right about now. Pookie Doo’s birthday is less than a month away but party planning began a few months back . Just wanted to give you a sneak peak @ one of the pink-a-licious crafts! I’m adore almost anything ruffle-y.I am absolutely loving how all of the homemade décor is coming out! ((CHEESIN’)). The party is going to be very small, just her and 5-6 friends so I’m trying not to go tooooo overboard! Wish me luck!

Rosie Pink Monogramed Pillow

Well I’m making much progress on Pookie Doo’s Pinkalicious room makeover. I am almost ready for the big reveal in a couple of weeks. I can’t wait to share it with you all. But until then here is a pillow I just completed for her bed. I got the pillow idea from Beth at Stories from A to Z. She used ruffled ribbon, I used a ribbon of roses. I love her blog, tons of cool tips, tricks, and ideas. Okay so here’s the pillow!

I used leftover fluff, a travel pillow cover I think it was about $2  and pink rose ribbon from Hobby Lobby I got it 50% OFF! SCORE! The iron on transfer paper I already had.

The finished pillow complete with rosie ruffles and Pookie Doo’s initials. I didn’t get the pink letters to match the roses as  well as I wanted but I couldn’t waste the ink!
