March Stitching

Good morning ! I hope you had a great week !
I finished stitching this With Thy Needle and Thread March wordplay last week , and finally got it finished to show you !

I converted all the floss to DMC and changed some of the colors..I didn't want any of the orange in it.. so I used more greens and tans.

I was having a little trouble with my magnet system to hold it on the silver tray , so my daughter said I should get some sheet metal and cut a piece to use on the back of the stitchery to hold it to the magnets (I was using 2 sets of magnets ,3 on the stitching and 3 on the tray ) it works perfectly and will be a lot cheaper ! No more magnets to buy.

I matted March on burlap too , like Februarys.. you can also see Octobers here ...

We also found the new green Mason jars at Michaels ! Had to bring some of those home :)

I am working on the March Cottage from CCN , hope to have that finished soon !
When we were out thrifting the other day I found some more snowman salad/desert plates .. these are Oneida , and were 49 cents each .. they are really cute ! I also got a really nice wrought iron planter for my porch at an Estate sale .. It will have to wait until I get flowers to show you :)

I redid one of my daughters chalkboards at her house and she wanted a chicken , so here is her chicken ..I need a long chalkboard like that for my house :)

We took this photo with our iphones last week in our neighborhood ..I love the reflection in the hood of the car..Do you see all that snow we still have ?!?

Hope you have a great weekend ! Thanks so much for your visits and nice comments !

See you on Monday with a project I am doing for Joann Fabrics and Crafts !I would love for you to follow me on Instagram, Facebook and Pinterest ..all the links are in the sidebar !

Spring In The Dining Room

Good Morning ! Another snowy day here in the Chicago suburbs.. but its springtime in my dining room !

I love this vignette on the dining room table.. I used a burlap wreath with dried hydrangeas and tulips, a cream colored pedestal plate,a thrifted pedestal bowl filled with green moss and a bird.. topped off with a glass cloche.. and a egg filled nest on the wreath.

On the buffet I have a couple spring vignettes..love the moss bunny in the metal cloche.. got him at Hobby Lobby. More dried hydrangeas , a vintage Ball jar , and a egg filled nest on a silver tray.

Thrifted aqua dishes ( love them !)a bird and some greenery in the wrought iron basket. I also added one of the rolled book page roses to the basket.

The spring book page wreath hangs in the window.

This is what the dining room looked like last year at this time! We still need window treatments, but I don't want to cover up the pretty window molding !

Thanks so much for stopping by! I appreciate all your visits and comments !

Spring In The Kitchen

Good Monday morning !

It's springtime in the kitchen ! It is very much still winter outside ! Below zero temperatures and still lots of snow in the Chicago area !

I used grapevine wreaths on top of mason jars with a little moss for birds nests in this vignette..Burlap , and a wrought iron cloche on top of the vintage scale..

The Fitz and Floyd bunny teapot is hanging out in this tiered wrought iron basket.. The bottom has a little thrifted silver pedestal bowl another grapevine wreath and a little bird..

The seasonal chalkboard that hangs in the doorway from the family room to the kitchen..

I got this fabulous pedestal at the Salvation Army for about $3.00 , it is perfect for spring.. This little vignette is on the kitchen table..

Last year at this time we were going through our Living room dining room remodel.. Below is the before, since then we have gotten a smaller round table and new chairs, painted the hutch , carpet , window trim , we took down alot of the the wall the hutch is on, to open up the rooms .. what a mess it was , but the finished remodel is fabulous!

I am still loving the stamped spring tablerunner I made last year , you can see more of that here ..

Have a great day !

More Scarves, Stitching ,Spring and Hobby Lobby !

Good morning ! Hope you have had a great week !
I have been making more of these infinity scarves..This time with a baseball applique! Aren't they too cute !?! These are for a blogger/instagram friend ..They were her idea , but I am going to steal that idea and make a football applique for myself :) I have 2-1/2 done ..2-1/2 more to go !

I finished up the September With Thy Needle and Thread Wordplay.. I left out those little orange designs, and added another person and some more of the wave design.. I think I am going to do one more row of the wave design in the top left corner...

Stitching on March right now, I am not loving the burnt orange color and think its going to be replaced with another color of green..

While at Hobby Lobby to get more navy yarn for those scarves, I wandered to the clearance section at 90% off ! These pillows were $99.00 for $9.99 ..

And this lamp...$89.99 for $9.00 ! I think I am going to use it in the spare bedroom that we are getting ready to repaint and decorate ! Isn't it fabulous ! Love the little rusty flowers !

I have been Springing up the house even though it has been below zero ! So cold ! Our village workers came yesterday and removed the huge pile of snow from our yard .. I wonder if its because we are supposed to get more snow this weekend ???

I love this wrought iron tiered basket I got at an Estate sale.. I filled it with tulips from Michaels , made a chalkboard sign , and added a burlap bow.

Have a great weekend ! My daughter is off today so we are going Estate sale shopping ! Hope we can find some great bargains :)
