I am making (slow) progress in updating my bedroom. I've returned the Nate Berkus pillows with the Greek key trim to Target. Love 'em but they weren't comfortable as a cushion.
I am working hard to create a balance that's neither too masculine or too feminine. And this pillow from Target is my new inspiration. I particularly love the blue.
With my 20% off coupon in hand, I traipsed over to Jo-Ann fabrics for something to coordinate with the pillow.
From the HGTV fabric line at Jo-Ann, there's this:
 |
| HGTV's Poppy Power Lemonade |
 |
| HGTV's Jagged Edge Lemonade |
This is in the running the winner for the updated chair cushions and curtains. It's from Waverly's Sun n Shade line.
 | ||
| Rosette Lemon |
And for pillows, I found this pair of striped fabrics. The yellow one is from Jo-Ann, but I can't find the name or description. The ticking fabric is generic but I think I got it from a store in Atlanta.
Don't know if I'll use all of these fabrics, but I think they are a great starting point.
AND
Stopped by K-Mart the other day in search of a drop cloth. In the same aisle, I found Rustoleum's paints on sale, both spray and liquid at $1-$2 less than what you'll find at Home Depot. I picked up two of these, for this craigslist find.

And, my brass lamps are almost complete.
I'm off to a good start and am happy with my progress.
Smooches and thanks for reading!
