A Few More Projects for my "New" Sitting Room

  Well, I have finished the final project that I wanted to do in completing the task of turning our Guest Room into a Sitting Room for me!!

Sewing!!!

You see, I based the color theme of the this room on this bedding set, bought at a church flea market!

 I loved the yellow back ground with the floral print and even matched the wall paper border to this set.

Now that we no longer have a bed in this room, I decided to re-purpose the sheets because I am keeping the comforter to throw over myself on chilly evenings while I sleep read in my new recliner!!

I first started with the Dust Ruffle .............

I decided that I would add the ruffle to this blue tablecloth that was too short for this round table......

I then chose to finish it off with some trim........

Remember the trim from the lamp shades that I embellished?????

I do want to find a table round that is slightly larger in diameter ..........

Next to the table is a small vanity chair.......

This is how it looked several years ago when I first re- upholstered it using fabric from a tablecloth!!

And this is how it looks now!

I used fabric from a pillow sham for the back of the chair........

Trimmed it with some ribbon roses........

 I cut up the fitted sheet and covered the seat of the chair......

And trimmed it off with the fringed trim and a few ribbon roses.......

I also made a few covers for some pillow forms......

Again, using the fabric from the fitted sheet and then adding trim.......

 In this corner is where my white Christmas Tree will be set up for next Holiday Season........

 More pillows are on the recliner........

Again, I used the fitted sheet fabric and a pillow sham.......

I cut out a square from the pillow sham and sewed it onto the center of this pillow........

This one was made from the left over pillow sham fabric.....

And another small one , which will be perfect for behind my head when reading!!!!!

I had picked up another dust ruffle to match this bedding set several years ago at a Thrift Store.

I decided to make it into a valance for above the closet door to dress up that area a bit......

For right now, this is the entire dust ruffle but I can cut it in half if I decided to use it for the window!!

It is hung rather simply with a spring tension rod!!

I still have the entire flat sheet left that I most likely will use to  make curtains for the window for next Summer.......

And I also did one last spray painting project for this room.......

I bought this set of wicker furniture at a flea market several years ago.......

Since I painted almost everything else in this room white, I decided to give this little doll set a punch of color!!

I spray painted it pink!!

And that completed all the projects that I wanted to do to turn our Guest Room into a Sitting Room.......

Next week, I will be sharing the Reveal of my "New" Sitting Room!!

So I hope you will be back to visit soon!!

And thanks to those who took the time out of their busy day to spend a little bit of time with me!!
