So we are still wandering through the end of our renovation, having run out of cash but not ideas. I wanted a small cabinet for the boys bathroom - it's not a big room and there is only one small over the sink cabinet for keeping everything in. Budget being $0, when I drove past an side table by the side of the road a few weeks ago, I thought, why not?
I sanded it, and took the horrid handles off the drawers:
The bathroom is painted a soft apple green, with white tiles and a latte, dark blue and white shower curtain. The towels are all dark blue and brown and the fixtures are shiny silver. I painted the cabinet a latte gloss:
Then I Mod Podged some Anna Maria Horner fabric onto the drawers, added some shiny silver handles and voila! New furniture.
Next I'm tackling our TV cabinet, which is looking a bit old and sad, and two footstools.... I'll keep you updated.
In other news, did you know that Quilting: From Little Things is now available as an ebook for Kindle? You can even buy it in chapters, which gives you a technique, a dolly quilt and a full size quilt for only $3.59. If you have a Kindle this is a total bargain. The covers for the ebooks look awesome:
This one is for The Night Garden - it teaches you step-down piecing, and this one is for Whirligig, which teaches you Appliquing with Bias Strips.
All the chapters in the book are available this way. Cool huh?
