Sewing room update!

Hello!

I am happy to report that I am 98% done. All I need to finish up is the curtains (which will have to wait, till next weekend) and I am going to refinish (eek!) a lovely dresser I purchased at Goodwill (will post on that later this week) that will hold some of my shop stock (goodbye ugly plastic containers!!).




I really wanted to wait and post pictures once I was 100% ready, but I will share a few before and after shots for now :)



I hope you like what I have done so far.

I am happy to be back to normal. I already made some curtains for the closet (ahhh... sewing felt so good!) And, since I have re-opened all my Etsy shops as well, I am already working on some things, getting ready for back to school (and, maybe a little sale)!

I'll report in a few days how the dresser is going. I have never refinsihed a piece of furniture (much less a antique one) in my life, so here is hoping I do not ruin it (or that I see it on antiques roadshow, someday, ha ha ha!)

Starting to feel like home....






hello!
Thought I would quickly pop in, and share some pictures of our new house. These shots are of what is currently my favorite room in the house ( the TV room), not only because, it is somewhat done ( still needs to be painted!), but that fireplace and view to our woods, still has me in awe.

Last picture is of my new sewing room.
Yes.. that is indeed wood paneling...er checkerboard on the walls (and all the walls in the house.. fun!) and let me tell you, I have been working on it since last week. But, tonight I am giving it the last coat of paint (woo!) and will finally be back to my happy sewing self (and with my Etsy shops open) by Monday.

I will post more before and after shots of my new room, as soon as I get a chance.
