Raye-Raye Tray

Hello All,

Thought I would share with you one of the trays that I made for a friend. This tray caused me a bit of anxiety as it is multicolored, multilayers.

Raye had a bowl that she requested a tray made to match after seeing all the others that I have done.
Teal, Gray and Silver. The bowl was glass and swirled. I wish I had a picture of it.

Here is my version of the tray:
If you look close at the bottom you can see the top part of the bowl.



These pictures do not do it justice. You really have to see it in person.

And Raye LOVED IT!

**Edited 
Raye Sent me a Picture of both the bowl and tray together!
Check out the Facebook page to see it! 


Hugs,
Cherie

No Sew Pillows

Hello there my dears,

Hope all is well with you all. I have had a H.E.L.L of A WEEK. I quit smoking 2 weeks ago, yes I know, filthy nasty habit. No more smell, no more stinky breathe! Wo0o0ot. But along with doing that my energy has been sucked into outer space. I have also been HUNGRY, like I haven't eaten in years. I have been trying to get myself back on a routine.
Thank you all for being patient.

We have had a baby born at the beginning of the month. A little baby girl! So excited for my BIL and SIL. Little Miss will be spoiled like no other.We have already been banned from purchasing any more clothing for a while.


Last weekend I got a rush of energy and decided to craft as I was sitting at the craft table staring at all the projects that I wanted to do. The piles of fabric, the inspiration board. UGH!

Out came No Sew Pillows

And they are just that. Open a seam in a placemat from Target clearance, stuff one of the pillow inserts in(also clearance at Target). Close up the seam with straight pins and add some fabric tac to said seam. Squeeze the seam closed, get glue all over your finger tips. Unpin it, trying not to pin yourself. And there you have a No sew pillow.
Great Color to add for summer.


Hugs,

Cherie

A new Rug

Hello My dears,

I think I am in LURVE... with a rug.

Hand-tufted Coliseum Beige Wool Rug (8' x 11')
Hand tufted Coliseum Beige Wool Rug

Isn't she pretty?
I really do like her and the price isn't terrible.
Although, I will have to get new furniture in the living room, or slipcover everything. I think the later will be much cheaper. But I don't know if white slipcovers would work, what about beige?  Too much beige? These are the thoughts that are running through my head!
Is decorating a room around a rug wrong? Do you think this will go with my current wall color Sherwin Williams Tobacco Road?

Well Until next time!

Hugs,
Cherie
