31 Days of Tackling the To-Do List: Pillows and Pictures

So, I made a couple of pillows from the valences that came with the new living room drapes. I used fabric glue for lack of a working sewing machine. I combined ideas from a couple of Pinterest tutorials: one at LiveLoveDIY, and another at Charleston Crafted.  I will probably make at least one more at some point, but we’ll see how the fabric glue holds up.

SAMSUNG CAMERA PICTURES

As you can see, I also hung a few pictures. They are vintage prints of Edinbugh, Venice and the Tower of London my sister gave me, and I wanted to group them together. I’m not entirely happy with the arrangement – I know it breaks some design “rules”, like the bottom of the picture should be only about 10″ above the couch. But I also know I have little boys who put their feet up there sometimes (even though they’ve been told not to) and might knock it off the wall. It’s also tricky to work around that thermostat. Maybe I’ll come up with a better arrangement someday, but at least they’re up! And that little guy on the sofa makes anything look better. 😉
