I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I have been busy looking after a certain little girl who had shots yesterday. She is much happier today though!
My weekend find was three vintage mason jars at a garage sale down the street. I like their lids and I plan on using them for display in our bathroom, once it is finished. We are hoping to have a wall of built-ins, and I am imagining all the possibilities for decorating them!
I decided to use them today as part of a spring table setting.
I cut two geraniums from our front yard, since my beloved peonies are quickly fading.
I do like setting a nice table, even if it is just for us. After all, I think I should be most concerned with making things beautiful and special for my family, not just for guests.
I also wanted to let you know that I added a "Tutorials" page to the blog, right below the title. I thought this might be a good place since not everyone is interested in the "how-to" information. I will be adding more as I go along. For now I have posted about how to sew the ruffled skirt chair covers. It is really meant for beginner sewers, I am a little nervous to put it up since I just started sewing and I'm not sure if I am doing everything properly. If you are more advanced (like my Mom, Aunt A., or Mrs. M) please feel free to let me know if I should do something differently or if you have any tips! (Thank you Mrs. M for the tip about using good thread, it has made a big difference).
I will be back soon with more updates!
