I have Spring Fever! It was 80 degrees here on Sunday…so I threw on my shorts and frolicked in the sun a bit! Today it’s 47. I can’t seem to resist the the urgent need of jumping in my car and heading south to some sand and warm water. It’s almost unbearable!
I’m in a spring cleaning and re-arranging…sprucing up kinda mood. I just pulled out some funky spring fabrics to make pillow slipcovers.
I’m working on refinishing a dresser. It’s gonna be turquoise! I still need to finish a slipcover. I’m trying to keep myself busy until our Spring Break arrives in April! I’ve been to Goodwill several times to dump off stuff…wondering how in the world it accumulates so quickly. And I’m praying for Japan. What random stuff are you doing?
Hey Kristi,
I'm taking a short break after completing my Farmhouse kitchen restye…I'm breathing normal now
😉

Love those patterns you pulled out. That dresser is going to look awesome in turquoise. I just posted on my blog a TV table I refinished. 🙂
I'm working on some cushion covers for down below in our boat. Boating season is fast approaching here in coastal NC. The cushions that came with the boat — on an all-weather wicker settee — were that stiff Sunbrella stuff. Gag. And they were orange. Orange on a boat! What were they thinking? I drove an hour to get two blue and white fabrics. To hassle with piping or not is now the question.
Oooooo A beach! Warm weather is the best and most exciting part of Spring!
That dresser waiting for you to work your magic on looks as if it is made from laminates. I would like to refinish a thrifted laminate dresser and am awaiting your finished work. I hope you will show us some tips and other fine details as well.
Love your blog and the inspiration I find here.
Love your spring fabric choices. Colorful and fun!
I did just get back from spending a week in Sarasota ,Florida and it was gorgeous for sure! Back to reality here in Ohio but I know Spring is right around the corner!~Hugs, Patti
Random stuff I've been up to: Daydreaming about friends coming to visit me…
Did you have a post on a little 'gadget' that made pleating easier for slipcovers? I have tried to find one. Thanks for any info you can give me. email at bdr314@yahoo.com
