Here's an update on the cushions

It took me a little bit to figure out what fabric I was going to use for the cushions.  After digging through my stash of fabric, I ran across a shower curtain I bought from facebook yard sale a few months back that I had forgotten about.  I was so happy!


Then I had to make sure I had enough to do six cushions...thankfully, I did with a little bit of creative thinking.


I found some old curtains to use for the bottom.  Can you believe I was out of white fabric?!!!


I ran out of white thread too!  No more sewing for me until I restock my stash!

I still need to paint the floor in this area with one more coat of paint.  Then I need to finish painting the umbrella...I sure hope it turns out ok or I'll be sewing a slipcover for it too.

Stay tuned...

  5. Hi Melanie! I just found your blog. I wonder if you would be so kind as to tell me what is the lightest shade of pink you have found in spray paint? I cannot seem to find a shade that is is light enough for my liking. I love the pale shade you have for your walls. I realize that is not spray painted. ;)
