Spring Into Action Challenge!


I'm ready for another project 'push'!  I've been asked to participate in this DIY challenge involving 12 bloggers from around the country! We all need a little deadline to make us finish a project and ours is April 19th!  Yikes!   Thanks to Linda at My Crafty Home Life for setting this up.  I've picked my breakfast room that has been in limbo for a long time.....

   It's time to reupholster these sad Mid Century Modern chairs:


     Replace this light fixture:


(here's a peak of the laundry room to the left which is my next BIG makeover -- these photos really are embarrassing!)


Add white drapery panels with a patterned trim to replace the aluminum mini-blinds - yuck!


Add an accent rug under the table and a valance at the kitchen sink to coordinate:


Possibly even a new pendant light? I am excited about the reveal...can't wait!


Even though the challenge starts today, I won't be able to start making a mess and getting out the sewing machine 'til after Easter.. I'm having a big brunch and Easter egg hunt here!
