Sprucing Up


On Sunday I had to park a couple of blocks away from the church building because of the School hosting their Country Carnival.  I parked the car in front of a little house that just made me stop and admire.  It had the sweetest front porch with 2 little red rockers just like mine.  But what was captivating were the turquoise chevron pillows on the chairs.  They just made the porch "pop"!


So on my way home, I made a little stop at the fabric store and came home with 2 yards of this:








Making little envelope flap pillows takes about 15 minutes if you don't do any fancy trimming. For outside, I didn't.




Come and sit and join me for a cup of Pumpkin Spice coffee?

  4. I would LOVE to join you on the porch; I love porches, love rocking chairs, and would no doubt love pumpkin spice coffee too, if I could get it. And it's the little surprises/adventures that are so satisfying, like seeing the idea, finding the fabric, and creating the effect so quickly.
