Primp Your Stuff Wednesday Linky Party #40

Happy Wednesday! It's time to link up all your fabulously primped projects, including anything you have made, or made to look better, or anything you have found to {primp} your space.

Here are my favorites from last week's party:

Maple and Magnolia showed off her gorgeous new sleeping porch.

Common Ground made this beautiful butterfly memo board.


You'll have to go check out what My Covered Bridge used to make this really cool orb chandelier--I know I was surprised!




Thanks for all the inspiration!

vintage sheet banner

I'm still in a sewing mood.  I wanted to make a springy/summery bunting made out of vintage floral sheets.


I also got out some bunnies and eggs in honor of the official first day of spring tomorrow.




keep primping and happy spring!

a gold and chicken wire inspiration board, and getting ready to do a little sewing

Here's a little project I finished for my sewing nook--an inspiration board.  Along with sewing ideas, it contains furniture and paint color inspiration, and pictures from my kids that I truly treasure.


I love the contrasting fancy gold frame with the chicken wire, which I simply stapled to the back.



New colorful fabric, recently purchased, tell me I'm ready for spring.



I've set up a little sewing nook in the corner of my bedroom, which I prefer to work in than the large empty bedroom in the basement.




I'm got a few sewing projects in the works thanks to this. Now if only I could get off of it long enough to actually finish something.  So much inspiration, "sew" little time!



keep primping,

P.S. Come back tomorrow for the start of my Primp Your Stuff Linky Party--you don't want to miss it!
