stress really gets me moving..........

I think it's stress....well anyways. no point in bothering everyone with my issues. 

I wanted to show ya'll something I am very proud of.  I have never started from scratch to upholster anything......

So last month when the neighboring town had their citywide garage sale, of course I was going to go.  I found this little setee or bench.  I little rough around the edges that's for sure.  Must be 500 tacks in this thing.

Well, JB (my honey) thought I was a little koo koo.   Poor guy, this thing stayed in the living room for almost a month. 

Then out came the can of Annie Sloan old white,(and I still am not sure if I like that stuff or not.)  This was small so it worked out ok.....

Then today, I got out my giant piece of drop cloth.....I cut around 4 inches of the edges since it was already hemmed.  That was my ruffle. 

I made a mess of the dining room.

And here it is........

I stamped some french script ink onto some twill tape.  It turned out really nice.

 
It still needs a few more tacks, but it turned out pretty good.  Thanks to JB for cutting me a piece of plywood for the seat.

I also was on a roll yesterday and made this stuff for my Etsy shop.

Also made a bunch of tags and some Christmas stuff for Christmas in July.

Thanks to those who have left me comments.  I am fairly new to blogland and was about to give up on it and just be a looker.....but I think I will keep on going....for now.

Thanks ya'll!
