Primp Your Stuff Wednesday Linky Party #43

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:

Leone Design updated a plain ottoman with some charming burlap.

Five Brothers One Sister showed off this cute grouping on her sewing room wall.

Mak and Jill refinished this gorgeous shabby blue dresser. 

The Decorating Diaries primped some buckets and baskets with pretty and vintage-looking french graphics.

West Furniture Revival made a cute chalkboard with chalk holder.

Primping the shop, and a sneak peek

I've been busy primping the shop. I hope you love all the cool stuff that have been piling up in my garage as much as I do.

I also finished a cute little table this weekend, here's a peek.

I just need to add some pulls and a top coat and then it will be done--coming soon!

keep primping,

Primping my sewing nook {with my love of metal bins}

I've been reorganizing and primping my sewing nook in the corner of my bedroom, and have found some of my favorite baskets and bins to keep all my sewing supplies handy.

I found this old metal cabinet at the thrift store for only $5.  After a quick coat of white paint and a search for the perfect size basket to replace the missing drawer, it was ready to start housing some fabric and supplies.

I also changed out my decorative accessories on my stacked shelves, to baskets and jars full of buttons and trim.

My favorite new bins are these old metal drawers that have a hint of military engravings.

 

They make the perfect home for my ever-growing stash of fabric.

 An old industrial stool sits nearby to help me fetch supplies from the shelf above.

Another favorite, is this numbered locker basket, found at a local boutique.

It currently houses my latest, and ongoing project: the squares for a butterfly quilt for my 4-year-old, which I am hoping to have done by her 5th birthday--wish me luck!

It helps to have an organized space that is nice to look at, especially when you're "working".

If you love these metal drawers as much as I do, I have a few more that I have put in my shop. Now I'm off to work away on the sewing machine some more.

keep primping,

Happy Easter!

I'm back! After some time in the shop, my computer is now up and running. Thanks to those who were concerned about me, and if you didn't notice I was gone, just pretend you did.

We're getting ready to celebrate Easter with the typical Easter feast, and also plan on making these
