So not only is Pinterest extremely addicting BUT it is also helping me decorate my house! Here are some projects I am currently working on.
First thing is hanging fabric. I knew that just pasting the fabric on the wall was not the look i was going for. :) And I also knew that canvas the size i wanted was going to be extremely expensive. So I had this GREAT fabric but I was at a loss for what to do with it.
Then I was hunting around in Hobby Lobby and found canvas stretchers! I had never heard of them until this exciting trip to HL nor was i really sure how to use them. But where a 34x32 canvas would be well over $30. I bought 4 pieces to make a frame for $9! Not only is this my kind of deal! But now i would not be covering canvas with fabric. But my fabric would be the canvas! Here are some photos from my adventure. (And as always - I used push pins. Because I like to reserve my right to change my mind and not loose the fabric!)
I am also re-working the pieces below (which I have pinned to my pinterest boards) to make them my own and also fit in my very green living room! I'll update again with the finished products.
