My Minis Available in my New Shop

Hello Friends,

LOL, sick of the bedding yet? I have created a shop page. This set is available on that page.

The set consists of a fluffy ruffled comforter, three pillows, a bolster and square throw pillow.

The comforter and throw pillow have been embroidered by machine.

I want to apologize, for some reason, I can't post comments on my own blog and have been getting notes from other members stating that they cannot 'follow' me and some that can't comment...I don't know how to fix this...anyone know?

Frustrating....

EDIT!! THANK YOU CATERINA! :)

I have changed my settings in my blog dashboard and can now respond to comments and hopefully, those who couldn't comment earlier, can do so now.

I switched the setting for the comment box to a popup and was able to post my comments.

Bed Linens

Greetings Friends,

It's a beautiful day!

I finished up the bed last night. Thank you all for your comments and advice. I agree that with the linens on the bed, the edges are softened making the bed look less clunky. I did like the idea of using the foot board as the head board but after repairing and painting the whole thing once already, I didn't want to tear it all apart again :)

The bed linens were made from a Rachel Ashwell, Shabby Chic valance that I got on clearance at Target...I've used the fabric from that for so many projects. It has beautiful embroidery on it and is a very fine, lightweight cotton.

The 'painting' above the bed is another Hobby Lobby find. They are putting out their Christmas items and this was among them. It started as a small metal plaque in a dark mossy green. I painted it and distressed it and then added some translucent stickers and topped it with some gloss.

The two little white pillows are made just like real pillows with cases and filled with fine glass beads so they will 'scrunch' naturally. The roses pillow was kind of a cheater pillow, I just made the pillow case and then filled and stitched closed. I want to add some smaller square pillows and a bolster.
