Five-minute pillows

Well, this project is nothing impressive, but I loved Sarah's idea of getting some fresh, Spring ideas on here! I make these new covers for my throw pillows to add some additional colors to the room. it really helps to brighten things up inside when it isn't very bright outside. And an easy change is always welcome this time of year. The best part is that these little covers take about 5 minutes to whip up, and you us whatever fabric you feel like! We already have alot going on in our living room, so I went with a solid color, but a funky fabric would be adorable! My husband made the wooden buttons for me, and although he said they looked like pig snouts, I thought he did a great job!

Fresh Ideas







Okay ladies, I'm sure now that you have your Christmas decor put away you are itching to start cleaning and sprucing up the place. I personally would love to see what you're working on or what crafty Christmas gifts you whipped up for your loved ones (Rachel that means you !). Even if you paint a room or find a lovely bouquet of flowers at Safeway, please share! I think we all need a some fresh inspiration and creativity to get us through to sunnier longer days. Here's some photos of some of the things I've been doing at my house. Please share your projects and inspire us!
