Making a Lovie (Lovey)

Lovie or Lovey however you spell it.  Those simple small blankets with or without tags.  This one happens to be just a scrap piece of minky and cotton fabric that I had and a bib that was too cute to put away.

 You need at least 2 things a front and a back - if you wanna add an embellishment like a cute puppy, go ahead.

 1. cut out your puppy and saying and sew around them onto the fabric you choose

 trim your other fabric and put the fabrics right sides together.

 sew around them leaving a hole to turn inside out.  (you can pin this all together if you want so it stays but I don't really do that with little projects cuz I just really am not that picky)

 fold right side out.

 have a cute sick rambunctious toddler making a mess out of everything in the background.

 sew together your hole by folding in those ends and sewing almost to the edge. (you can hand sew it so you don't see the seam, but I'm waaayy too lazy for all that mess!)

 voila finished product.

Salon Remodel

Remodeling the salon.  This is the very start.

Thinking shabby chic meets sleek.  Black salon chairs, black furniture with some antique wood pieces thrown in.  Ashley Ann Photography really inspired me with her bedroom to just go for different.

 Gray/taupe wall color.  The vinyl flooring has those colors in it.   Gray curtain fabric is behind the 2 colorful ones. 

Also found a really cute blog in the process World in a Paper Cup

Find it HERE


Love these mirrors - would love to paint some for in front of the salon chairs which we are recovering in black.

frame collection found HERE

I like how THIS ONE uses fabric, open frames, rectange and oval, and some other elements





Waiting room Chairs.  I am wanting to paint and use some cool fabrics.  Add some animal prints in.

 How fun is this?  I lost the link to this one :(

 I really like this one as is WOW

These are really cool
