I touched them up and hung them up and love them! I have been looking for something to hang in my main floor hallway for a while now but never really knew what I wanted there. I thought about a mirror but thought I would need a huge one to fill up the wall and those can get pricey. Well I saw these and thought they would be perfect.</div>

I have taken a break from anything home decor but I have now gotten the motivation back that I needed to get some projects done! Today I want to share a small makeover I did in my master bathroom. Our bathroom has a separate room for the toilet and it needed some major TLC. Since we moved in I hated this room because it was so boring and the walls needed some touch up, so I always would keep the door closed.</div><div style="text-align: center;"> Here are the before pics...</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_J2_fDcD66RXtkU1sR91VtbqP_yOGoZ6yQJ4VJfxZfz-J46VQ0FrWnrt0wAVpV1hw7nAnCTNovMHQ13uIkxDKdYbCEPchacTlh7pVQJp7AGGYV5eGVWfAA0xKsKwibzk6ozXQ-_N8_1Lb/s1600/_DSC7983+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_J2_fDcD66RXtkU1sR91VtbqP_yOGoZ6yQJ4VJfxZfz-J46VQ0FrWnrt0wAVpV1hw7nAnCTNovMHQ13uIkxDKdYbCEPchacTlh7pVQJp7AGGYV5eGVWfAA0xKsKwibzk6ozXQ-_N8_1Lb/s640/_DSC7983+copy.jpg" width="424" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnjhfIXBEzm4DvXihSjTRmYIH8zx3D1cpSBBq3D5nb5-pLN0AffKTAKi5hw6lAXqf8R6MJ1bkxY_mneFlP-OBjPl2xh7JtGDSbyyRvXU6xQhbTDkEBl3wY4GwXqU1LKpPvpMsI_4aV51sm/s1600/_DSC7981+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnjhfIXBEzm4DvXihSjTRmYIH8zx3D1cpSBBq3D5nb5-pLN0AffKTAKi5hw6lAXqf8R6MJ1bkxY_mneFlP-OBjPl2xh7JtGDSbyyRvXU6xQhbTDkEBl3wY4GwXqU1LKpPvpMsI_4aV51sm/s640/_DSC7981+copy.jpg" width="424" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Notice the powder on the floor? Before we moved in we hired a dry waller to come in and patch up holes in the walls throughout the entire house. This bathroom was no exception to that. I wish you could see just how bad the walls were. I had to sand down part of the wall and paint with a primer before I could do anything else in the room. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Here is the after... </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I started by painting the room the same color as the rest of the bathroom. Post found <a href="http://www.lovingyourspace.org/2011/08/master-bath-progress.html">here</a>, and no we have not progressed on the rest of our master bath plans :(</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I took things from around the house to decorate this small space. This room is so small and only big enough for the toilet, so I didn't want to put a lot on the walls in fear it would crowd the space. I put only a few simple touches above the toilet to give it the feel I was looking for. This basket I had on hand and love to fill it with toilet paper. Not only does it look good, it serves a purpose to!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ6ezlPKKekU9PF28Bsub3Xwsva1krAjcYLpX0FwHoK5vA0La7oVec0K-AJ98rAyAy5q15M2PdBzK_82TDtXX9rs1JqDfarFW1ZmeRWJwFrU5MWVTftIg2gnx32dey9McNU_w5oDZLb57x/s1600/_DSC6625.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ6ezlPKKekU9PF28Bsub3Xwsva1krAjcYLpX0FwHoK5vA0La7oVec0K-AJ98rAyAy5q15M2PdBzK_82TDtXX9rs1JqDfarFW1ZmeRWJwFrU5MWVTftIg2gnx32dey9McNU_w5oDZLb57x/s640/_DSC6625.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I went back to the hardware store and picked out my molding, came home and got right to work. I wanted the frame to sit perfectly around the picture so what I did was hold my molding right up to the picture and measured slightly more than the length of the picture on the molding. You want to make sure the frame is slightly bigger than the picture itself so that it can hang directly on top of the picture...I'm talking only a 1/4" difference. I made a 45 degree cut on the ends of each piece. This method worked perfectly and only took me about 15 min to make all of the cuts. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjISBEoOzKFpa6xkbYBG4i_ORMRyq0-Z6WnH4BfG3QSHmqsuOaYJW0jisCHR45VZ0-UjLZUUsv0z4MvUc-IKozOdBIWOdk-vJgDRus2mhSF8CRJHcdrXKRIs7YaIogjj-vfLzPni_8NJbhF/s1600/_DSC6578.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjISBEoOzKFpa6xkbYBG4i_ORMRyq0-Z6WnH4BfG3QSHmqsuOaYJW0jisCHR45VZ0-UjLZUUsv0z4MvUc-IKozOdBIWOdk-vJgDRus2mhSF8CRJHcdrXKRIs7YaIogjj-vfLzPni_8NJbhF/s640/_DSC6578.JPG" width="640" /></a> </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Now I assembled the frame. I figured since the frame wasn't going to be holding anything up that it would be light enough to use wood glue. So I just stuck a small amount of wood glue between each corner and held it in place. Wood glue dries fairly quick so I just sat there and held each piece until it was dry enough to move on to the next corner. Once the whole frame was assembled I flipped it over and put a big glob of glue on the back of each corner to make it a bit more durable. I might go back and add some brackets to make it even more secure but for now this works. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"> <img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9dC7EHZ0zn6fmtLB3eLgORP1wQZWUbvFRMVuOLm3KLiBx6QdSuEsKDPtVuhe5QaCfvG6kIld2OYTrp1932KOft4A99bOQsGn8Ry2yDLmrrumpNoEIcg2AYVgC-6OMQOHSNdFSPf81hblF/s640/_DSC6586.JPG" width="424" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Once the glue was dry I took some brackets I picked up at the hardware store and attached them to the back of the frame. The nails are so small that I had to use pliers to nail them in. I put 2 of these on the back of the frame.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7HX3Km-48shs5aEN9oV85KbLqIAlTvNyYJqFkwkP1gsIomqrFRR_4jRWXyP-V06Q3Wvneee7bPO9_59ZvycgAxWRqoWjuCLYRGixQqXcP3-v867pilxVsyc9yaKw0X_7A0Whi91lO2z3C/s1600/_DSC6590.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7HX3Km-48shs5aEN9oV85KbLqIAlTvNyYJqFkwkP1gsIomqrFRR_4jRWXyP-V06Q3Wvneee7bPO9_59ZvycgAxWRqoWjuCLYRGixQqXcP3-v867pilxVsyc9yaKw0X_7A0Whi91lO2z3C/s640/_DSC6590.JPG" width="640" /></a> </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">The last step is to caulk the edges and paint which I haven't done yet, I hate that part :) I then used some small nails and hung this frame directly on top of the picture and voila...you are done!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

The minute I sign in I am pinning the most beautiful and amazing things. I then find myself trying out those things as soon as I can. Some of my favorite recipes come from there that I probably make <i><u>WEEKLY!</u></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I found a few projects recently that I just couldn't resist trying in my home. The first was the DIY ruffle curtain found <a href="http://aboyagirlandapug.blogspot.com/2010/04/8-ruffle-curtain-tutorial.html">here.</a> A boy, a girl and a pug gives you a detailed tutorial on how to make these inexpensive curtain. Really these were pretty easy, it just took some time to hem all the pieces and sew them together. But I love how they turned out. Before I had just plain white curtains and sewed the ruffled strips right to the existing curtain.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">It adds a lot more character to some boring old curtains. And the best part is it only cost me $10 and I feel like I have totally new curtains:)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Another project I tried was "frosting" my front window. <a href="http://7thhouseontheleft.com/2011/08/window/">7th house on the left</a> has a free pattern that you can download to make your own frosted window out of contact paper.

</div><div style="text-align: center;">This project took some time. I did it while watching an episode of The Bachelor :) Each one of the Moroccan tiles was traced, cut and stuck on separately! I think that my scissor fingers suffer permanent damage from all the cutting, but it was totally worth it! I tried to get a picture of it outside but it was really sunny and a bit hard to see.I'm in love!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Basically what you do is take your photo to Office Max and have them print it in black and white. I got mine printed as 24x36. It only cost $4 so I got 2! One for my Living room and one for my sons room. Then you go to Home Depot and get a large piece of foam board. Mine only cost $7.50 and I was able to get 3 large pictures out of it. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I have had in the last couple of days a handful of comments and emails from people asking me for a copy of my prints. I would love to just send them out to everyone, but feel that I need to start an etsy shop to sell my prints. So I have started a shop and will be selling all 3 prints for $5. I believe this a great price and cheaper than any other prints out there! The price is for the 3 printable JPEG files that I will email to you after your payment is complete. If your not quite diggin the colors, then I can change them to whatever color you want! Anyways...check out my <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/Lovingyourspace?ref=seller_info">shop</a> which is now open!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I did realize a few things over the break. </div><div style="text-align: center;">First is that taking a month off blogging was really nice. </div><div style="text-align: center;">And second is that it is really hard for me to do everything...cooking,cleaning, being a good mom, doing projects and blogging. </div><div style="text-align: center;">So with that I have decided to blog when I want and not stress over it. I started this blog to show my progress as we worked on our home and I want it to stay that way. So when I finish a project then I will blog about it. I don't like trying to think of things to blog about...truth is most of you probably don't care about the random little posts in between. I still love all of my followers and the sweet comments that you give me. The support is awesome! I will still try to post as often as I can :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I can't believe how long I have let this blog go. In my defense, my computer was acting up and I couldn't upload any pictures. I think I have made a temporary solution but things still need fixing around here. I could only upload a few pictures so I thought I would just share our Christmas tree this year. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgf77ma5WfmUeZBXZrviCK89rdMQrg8z1DGqe5tGtqcMEo8u0DgRvpFWLfwU_Ij7g-EjNfVfr5hovG5_Y1ikfAMQTJ8MVhhwTLFnj7GKKiiJ6Asm82EzC3-7DNHJhV4PIQoUmccfSJgg_hT/s1600/DSC_0015-1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgf77ma5WfmUeZBXZrviCK89rdMQrg8z1DGqe5tGtqcMEo8u0DgRvpFWLfwU_Ij7g-EjNfVfr5hovG5_Y1ikfAMQTJ8MVhhwTLFnj7GKKiiJ6Asm82EzC3-7DNHJhV4PIQoUmccfSJgg_hT/s640/DSC_0015-1.JPG" width="428" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I grew up with a real tree and my Husband grew up with a fake tree. I always was against the fake tree, but finally gave into it when our real tree kept dying way before Christmas every year! I found a killer deal on our tree a few years back at Tai Pan and I couldn't resist. I love my tree and am so glad with our decision to go fake. One bonus to the fake tree is that it can stay up longer. I love our home at Christmas and love that the decor can stay up for over a month. That being said, we always deck our halls the day after Thanksgiving!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Here is our tree this year... </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I believe that my tree is a work in progress. Every year I think it gets better and better as I add a little bit to it. This year I added the berries (as you can see in the above pic) and a new star. The star came from Hobby Lobby and the berries came from an old garland I had in storage.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I found a tutorial on <a href="http://www.hgtv.com/handmade/how-to-make-a-no-sew-ruffled-christmas-tree-skirt/index.html">HGTV</a> explaining how to do this and just tweaked it a bit to make it my own. They used hot glue to attach the ruffles and I just sewed them on to make it a bit more durable. They used canvas for the bottom of the skirt and I just had a huge felt piece that I used. The green fabric I used in years past as my tree skirt and just bunched it together.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">It actually used to be a table cloth used at the Academy Awards... THE Academy Awards!! My Mom picked these up at a huge warehouse sale in LA and we used them for my wedding. She gave one to me to keep and it is so huge that I could never find a use for it, at least until now! I was a bit sad to cut it up, but I knew I would be much happier with the outcome.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I still have about half of the table cloth left and I can't decide if I want to keep going and fill the whole skirt with ruffles or just leave it. What do you think?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I have so much more to post about and hopefully I can stay on top of it...if my computer cooperates:)<br />

I know for me in years past I would either skip Thanksgiving decor all together or just keep my Halloween decor up through Thanksgiving, both probably out of laziness :) Well I have realized that with a few simple switches you can change your Halloween decor to Thanksgiving for practically free!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">First thing I changed were these candlesticks.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiImai95O0VaKCEk5mylV_2OVFmo__hZAe986RIN0K_JTTAqozcWY0PGuj9XV-RFLZIPIdBgid2IpbATKRJyjzK_oxRsjwrJ-j4MiDR2AGciaEfxe5nCvW7eulvgk1TM6Y2v7FHGBwVcypH/s1600/DSC_0060.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiImai95O0VaKCEk5mylV_2OVFmo__hZAe986RIN0K_JTTAqozcWY0PGuj9XV-RFLZIPIdBgid2IpbATKRJyjzK_oxRsjwrJ-j4MiDR2AGciaEfxe5nCvW7eulvgk1TM6Y2v7FHGBwVcypH/s640/DSC_0060.JPG" width="428" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
I was a bit worried about having black candlesticks for Thanksgiving but I think my small switches made it work.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I changed the black and white ribbon to brown ribbon and replaced the jack-o-lanterns with candles that I already had.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Next up was the kitchen table. My decor went from this...</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">For the table runner I just used scrap pieces of fabric that I already had. </div><div style="text-align: center;">To make it I just cut the scraps into 2 1/4" strips and sewed them together.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJNE6FfZzavgL37cpm5Zdoq-mcIUKt_YHNXbcB6FNlRQyhCWZfIsDBgC5ZQn7jCgbtYvfaGVIFOp6PlHqT7QeW7G5hob11iZ3vGiooXu9Q7VleWusNycOJgrV6Jnz1TOmoI_idFwaPQeNL/s1600/DSC_0002.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJNE6FfZzavgL37cpm5Zdoq-mcIUKt_YHNXbcB6FNlRQyhCWZfIsDBgC5ZQn7jCgbtYvfaGVIFOp6PlHqT7QeW7G5hob11iZ3vGiooXu9Q7VleWusNycOJgrV6Jnz1TOmoI_idFwaPQeNL/s640/DSC_0002.JPG" width="428" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">When sewing the strips together be sure to alternate which side you start your stitch on. </div><div style="text-align: center;">This keeps your runner straight! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Once I sewed the strips together I attached a few strips to the sides to create a border.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Lastly I added some white material to the back. Sew all edges together inside out making sure to leave a small gap to turn it right side in.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I find that if I have more than little touches here or there than I get so sick of it before the actual holiday even arrives. So here is a look into the bits and pieces of my Halloween decor. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">The mantle:</span></div><div style="text-align: center;">Our family room has a beautiful fireplace right in the center of it. Our TV takes up so much space above it that I really have minimal space for decor. This is what I came up with this year...</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqcN8wkWR1rC-uQGEccBbAVifC1ZHlSrTfOSpw4aWhd4ssEvxrx7j_O3wyBF1qDZzerLgbyrLhGFoYFHNGijg-9p7u65virJ7UtlcvSJyt2HtYKpBW7fCajNxuKeRFV4yg9gjKmriL1lbH/s1600/DSC_0312.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqcN8wkWR1rC-uQGEccBbAVifC1ZHlSrTfOSpw4aWhd4ssEvxrx7j_O3wyBF1qDZzerLgbyrLhGFoYFHNGijg-9p7u65virJ7UtlcvSJyt2HtYKpBW7fCajNxuKeRFV4yg9gjKmriL1lbH/s640/DSC_0312.JPG" width="428" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUvtSWWFmks8jaUIZP7FzMsOSZYzOjAV-DWngbrKrBkeVlFmOFgtL8k_CP8I7XIf8dBRvs9DwLM6FLK9OG8mJorYlunlVvEx7KfiKs3EFR8EamYoWGJHj6z2bQR7hP5lyZkfpOKrX-bP_n/s1600/DSC_0313.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I showed you <a href="http://www.lovingyourspace.org/2011/10/halloween-pennant-garland.html">here</a> how to make the garland. The pumpkins and "boo" sign came from Hobby Lobby, the candle sticks came from Target, the "trick or treat" blocks I made years ago and I just had the black frame sitting in storage. The "boo" sign was originally black (if you noticed in the above pictures they are different colors) but I spray painted it orange to make it pop more. I really like how every thing came together. Its just the right amount of Halloween for me :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVRPFZoZmOIXeu8t3Mt9VjdsG9o0_G5lx7lC_FJdnr2A4wtgZWW5tDLGAcGuO9t58VaJkdskMfGCpuO5lbMkv-IuVf09tDix1Q21blFchV4tlk4ieoZm4JsSC113CyNdjUSZCZJTg5JTe8/s1600/Mantle.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="472" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVRPFZoZmOIXeu8t3Mt9VjdsG9o0_G5lx7lC_FJdnr2A4wtgZWW5tDLGAcGuO9t58VaJkdskMfGCpuO5lbMkv-IuVf09tDix1Q21blFchV4tlk4ieoZm4JsSC113CyNdjUSZCZJTg5JTe8/s640/Mantle.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">The Kitchen Table:</span></div><div style="text-align: center;">Back when my neighbor and I had a craft day and made the garland, we also made this table runner.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_S1Cyj49TaCDfOL5v_PDQLWg9p_No-rB6NTewh1KA3NcAS3SGpq8i2gAiIJrBZBIDRnZnpFoSAVQx0LaKkeTwwSSu2KOFqGYe2n8axJWMdgkfUKb010foxYiu15ODvtcexgc8ONLne4sp/s1600/DSC_0321.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_S1Cyj49TaCDfOL5v_PDQLWg9p_No-rB6NTewh1KA3NcAS3SGpq8i2gAiIJrBZBIDRnZnpFoSAVQx0LaKkeTwwSSu2KOFqGYe2n8axJWMdgkfUKb010foxYiu15ODvtcexgc8ONLne4sp/s640/DSC_0321.JPG" width="428" /> </a> </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">We got the idea from <a href="http://www.favecrafts.com/Halloween-Crafts/Halloween-Ribbon-Table-Runner#">this tutorial</a> but ended up making up our own pattern. We got as much material as listed on the tutorial and then cut down our runner almost in half. In the end we had sooo much left over material that I was able to make another runner and still have stuff remaining! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Again keeping things simple, I put my rod iron pumpkin in the center of the table and covered it with spider webs using a hot glue gun. I found the giant spider at walmart for $3!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsTmloM-anWPyFutHQmw9GjH1vwcDbf83RGB4ngWGLze_O-rqrZP3lBSkU6AMd6bGsR5ZdK7dnKma-Pft8RLAHS6QpPR9ho507t2FqOkg6xTAnjTnTbo9JweuwaUyNvjZcnmqjgBo7Vgqn/s1600/DSC_0320.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="428" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsTmloM-anWPyFutHQmw9GjH1vwcDbf83RGB4ngWGLze_O-rqrZP3lBSkU6AMd6bGsR5ZdK7dnKma-Pft8RLAHS6QpPR9ho507t2FqOkg6xTAnjTnTbo9JweuwaUyNvjZcnmqjgBo7Vgqn/s640/DSC_0320.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I think seasonal decor is always a work in progress...at least it seems that way for me :) This year I am still working on putting it all together but so far have made a few crafts. My neighbor and I had a sewing day where we made this adorable pennant garland...</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Its super easy and I will show you how. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">What you need is:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">1/4 yard fabric in 4 different prints</div><div style="text-align: center;">Black quilting binding</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9kd4dahefqIVSBtxQAs_mP9sLJ03taHgadGaf0ClpmY1LhhOrFHLyYYYmVqRRHe4ZwGAL1HD4F6AJnbwtOW7BUgC-BWh6nPPn08D2t8iTRf2vVtOsQHgqinIVzobmgbL5q6OGcM1jZ93l/s1600/DSC_0126.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="428" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9kd4dahefqIVSBtxQAs_mP9sLJ03taHgadGaf0ClpmY1LhhOrFHLyYYYmVqRRHe4ZwGAL1HD4F6AJnbwtOW7BUgC-BWh6nPPn08D2t8iTRf2vVtOsQHgqinIVzobmgbL5q6OGcM1jZ93l/s640/DSC_0126.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">The first thing you want to do is make your pattern. We just cut out a triangle out of printer paper and eyeballed it to a size that looked good.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEit5Cp_pAzs_qDDnWngn9LlgN84V-w0E5LKGAohEYaSNqO7DgJYi5rADkbO5ghsVZIoleq6tOcZBKdJFNPew0u4nhXx3ecr6lhk53bUCaq61TXWaEixFTw0qMNahBOiqTHBN88a6kLFWb1H/s1600/DSC_0128.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="428" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEit5Cp_pAzs_qDDnWngn9LlgN84V-w0E5LKGAohEYaSNqO7DgJYi5rADkbO5ghsVZIoleq6tOcZBKdJFNPew0u4nhXx3ecr6lhk53bUCaq61TXWaEixFTw0qMNahBOiqTHBN88a6kLFWb1H/s640/DSC_0128.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Be sure to double your fabric so your triangles have a front and back and cut out 2 triangles in each fabric (you should have 4 total pieces in each fabric).</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Once all the pieces are cut you are ready to sew. Turn each triangle inside out so that the two pieces of fabric are facing each other. Sew a straight line down the two angled sides. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I like to back-stitch over the tip to reinforce it a bit. This step helps a lot when it comes time to turn it inside out.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiucUPlpgsNzgAE61b9eS1GKmSYXkzoOUn5E5UzajkC_PpOyiTj_cmaZogodBO89vkGsXoj1RrGIfEqQvusPbD2l1d2M_iKgfBJbb2PRff3vbAbPpoAV79P7zYWxgDmQREuzKq3MYsm663r/s1600/DSC_0133.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="428" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiucUPlpgsNzgAE61b9eS1GKmSYXkzoOUn5E5UzajkC_PpOyiTj_cmaZogodBO89vkGsXoj1RrGIfEqQvusPbD2l1d2M_iKgfBJbb2PRff3vbAbPpoAV79P7zYWxgDmQREuzKq3MYsm663r/s640/DSC_0133.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Once all pieces are sewn, they need to be turned inside out and pressed.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Now you are almost done! </div><div style="text-align: center;">Lay out your pieces in whatever pattern looks best to you. For my garland I chose to make 3 triangles out of the green print, but you can do it any way you want. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Next take your binding and find the center. Pin your middle piece first and then go out from there. We didn't measure each piece, just eye balled each spacing. Once its up you can't even tell they aren't exact!<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">On the opposite wall I hung this "boats" sign that I got from Tai Pan. It was all the wrong colors, but I loved it so much that I painted over it with diluted white paint and navy blue craft paint.

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I got these faucet handles at Ace hardware for $2.50 a piece. They were red but I spray painted them orange. I think they are so fun and add a lot of character to a kids space!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Thanks everyone for participating in my first giveaway!! </div>Elyse@Loving Your Spacehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08578187896723231928noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-831785707460427531.post-89586174141213235752011-09-24T09:38:00.000-06:002011-09-24T09:38:43.467-06:00Studio 5 details<div style="text-align: center;">This week I had the opportunity of bringing Studio 5 into my home. </div><div style="text-align: center;">It all started a few months ago when I heard about a segment they do called Happy Home. Each month they feature a decorating idea that makes your home happy. They go to different homes and film a short segment on something that makes their home "happy". I sent in a picture of my laundry room a while back and got called by Jill Grover to set up a time to film my segment. Originally it was to be done in July, but they got backed up and had to postpone it until October.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://studio5.ksl.com/"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHkeBumLLcbwer0rQyOJjvFxfTc8AD6V4MeCz2w0EFJiVnH0REJnFMIql6S2vX188OEkqtMa_wIGxqhvyfJ1tF10PzBf1xeHCVVfU3Vk6UPU1dt2eJkGcs91b1FYIG78ml0QeYuiKS6N2D/s1600/24236806.GIF" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">This last Monday Jill called me and asked if she could come tomorrow! Of course I obliged, but instantly was freaking out! I got off the phone and immediately started to clean and detail my home. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">When they got here we talked about what we were going to film, got me set up with a mic and started to film. It only took about 20 min. and seemed to be over before it even started. They interviewed me on my laundry room and playroom and then that was it. It was such a fun experience to be a part of and to feel like a celebrity for a day...or a few minutes :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Also don't forget about my Shaklee giveaway going on!

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I immediately started to try out the products. </div><div style="text-align: center;">My first area to tackle was my kitchen appliances. I have a 1 year old who constantly is putting his little hand prints all over my stainless steal. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">It is still in the works so all I will show you is a little DIY I did....mirror framing! This is such an easy project and I don't know why I was ever intimidated by it! Seriously people you can do this!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Its so easy that it can be done in basically 3 steps.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">1. Cut your molding at 45* angles.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhix2J1ec4kcm2TRIbykD9GC6KatehQibifFtF4cIAnfnvKAYdgqOz9glqH2EYwhBcHQC-MSVW20IQ8ajEraJMuk5t7-2loxQUp3jmFhKjqmUfStngaQqNn36W1r3eXuhhrQiKFdiDoQOz5/s1600/DSC_0046-1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhix2J1ec4kcm2TRIbykD9GC6KatehQibifFtF4cIAnfnvKAYdgqOz9glqH2EYwhBcHQC-MSVW20IQ8ajEraJMuk5t7-2loxQUp3jmFhKjqmUfStngaQqNn36W1r3eXuhhrQiKFdiDoQOz5/s640/DSC_0046-1.JPG" width="428" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"> 2. Paint. Pretty basic, just make sure to paint the backside as it will be reflected on the mirror.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdYJNvR6InEwoQvzeZr3XPn4bWCUzhCpfhR5PkVXNmaerXxII6enBMOOS3MVjArvjL-euUOoHE36Lbu8Pv0hY8bHMPcysgva5nem8BtwZpFOhp6FKB72JGGPmkJk3wwy-OSoRLmbJz5PWu/s1600/DSC_0025-1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="428" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdYJNvR6InEwoQvzeZr3XPn4bWCUzhCpfhR5PkVXNmaerXxII6enBMOOS3MVjArvjL-euUOoHE36Lbu8Pv0hY8bHMPcysgva5nem8BtwZpFOhp6FKB72JGGPmkJk3wwy-OSoRLmbJz5PWu/s640/DSC_0025-1.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><div style="text-align: center;">3. Glue. Just apply liquid nails to the backside and stick it straight to the mirror. It really can't get any easier!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCI7wcaqpO7_DEQYEtUU5YCXlttqrea6tcr6LM6E3HcUDqAZCitzjb5oJx3pQ8G1cln6w7lDGYofA2tJluEeMpdSeCSIz9PZthyphenhyphenDqo5X3eooxNWiVCKeGGdrilQcVDG3vDpa-_m_1NuP28/s1600/DSC_0026-1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCI7wcaqpO7_DEQYEtUU5YCXlttqrea6tcr6LM6E3HcUDqAZCitzjb5oJx3pQ8G1cln6w7lDGYofA2tJluEeMpdSeCSIz9PZthyphenhyphenDqo5X3eooxNWiVCKeGGdrilQcVDG3vDpa-_m_1NuP28/s640/DSC_0026-1.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Not only is it easy, its pretty cheap and quick! The boys mirror is 40" x 30" so all I needed was one piece of molding. I already had the paint and glue so this mirror only cost me $10 and took me about 30 min! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">After one successful mirror I went back to the hardware store and bought 40 feet of molding to do the master bath mirrors. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
