August Subway Art Table Runner

Good Monday Morning ! Today is the first day of school for my youngest .. He is a sophomore this year , and I can't believe I forgot to take that first day of school photo ! I will have to take one tomorrow ..
I finally got around to making a summer themed ( just for August ) subway art table runner. I used a few colors of yellow, grey, black and white paints..
Wish I would have had some sunflowers for the mason jar, but mine in the garden are all finished ..so I used black eyed susans, and yellow zinnias..


I use my big foam stamps that I bought for scrapbooking a few years ago, for most of the words and then I freehand paint and use fabric paint for the rest. I also sprinkled some glitter in places on the wet paint.


For the ruffle I used black and white check, and then the yellow used to be my kitchen window treatments. I knew there would be a good use for that fabric someday :) It is hard to get a good photo of the ruffle since we have a round table.. Makes it look uneven .




 


I also put my black white check and burlap decomesh wreath back up .. I think I will add some sunflowers with the daisies in the wreath to make it more end of summerish..
Pretty soon it will be time to decorate for Fall .. ( can't wait !)

Hope you have a great day ! I will be back tomorrow or Wednesday with my crochet update.. I finished the granny ripple and started another big flower blanket !
 
 Thanks for stopping by and your nice comments !

Patriotic Subway Art Table Runner

Good Monday morning :) It was time for a new table runner to be made .. I went with a patriotic theme ,so I can use it from now until Labor Day , unless I decide to make a flowery summery one :)
I used my foam stamps and acrylic paint ,on osnaburg fabric. I used red gingham and navy polka dot fabric to make the ruffles..


I had to use some of the pompom fringe with the ruffles too ! I think this is my favorite so far out of the five I have made :)
I used red, white and blue paint , with a little light blue thrown in there.. I love how it looks with the light blue .


I actually made 2 of these , one is a gift for someone special :)
My duaghter and I were in Target last week and got these anniversary blue Ball Mason jars.,We split one package , then went back on Saturday and each got our own package of 6 .. Just love the blue color :)

I posted this photo of our front porch on Instagram last week , and to my surprise Home Depot commented on it and asked to share it ! How exciting !
My little Jack Russell is in the doorway supervising ! I had just moved some of the plants around in the front garden and planted a new hydrangea my daughter had bought me for Mothers Day.
Hope you all had a great weekend ! Thank you as always for all your nice comments and for visiting my blog ! I appreciate each and every one of you !
