ooooo... it's a B E A U T I F U L day on 34th street!
i mean G LO R I O U S !
i snapped this image of our dining room just after Mr. D departed
for work this morning, (about five thirty a.m.). (mr golden sun was not
yet awake!) i was sipping my coffee with anticipation of
a quick (before work) craft project. remember my post about transforming
the dining area into a "boutique de fleurs"?
first! did you notice the chandie?
i used a table runner that i found at Hobby Lobby.
a mere 7.99 for the new look!
i was seeking organic!
i am loving the burlap!
the reflection of light, both natural in the daylight and
illuminated at night, is wonderful! as you can see, i used little
sprigs of lavender, tied with tiny twine to disguise the seams.
this morning's project was to make a pennant banner out of
vintage French seed labels and craft paper envelopes!
i am more than pleased with the outcome!
sun's up!
...and i have to leave you for the shower and the office!
happy weekend!
{i have been visiting, but i need to catch up on my blog visit comments!
i will pop in to visit and chat on the weekend!}
oh! and the winner of the print on April's pink post?

ReplyDeletehope your weekend is full of fun.
Looks great! Sweet little transformation, and I love the lavender on the chandelier...bon week-end!
ReplyDeleteMy dear.....this post is a BEAUTIFUL addition to the France link party for the 17th! This is the influence that French décor has trickled down to us! Do you have a BEFORE pick of the chandy? I think the addition of burlap is the best thing. This is super. MERCI!!! Anita
ReplyDeleteLynne, I love your morning crafts, very cute. How fun to transform something so easily and have it look so great! Hope you have a beautiful weekend.

My goodness...the chandy is fabulous! Now, what on earth is under it? We need a before!! I love the banner, too! This would look so sweet in my kitchen window. Thanks for your inspiration. I just don't know how you do it all, I was up at 6:00 and I couldn't peel my hands off my coffee cup for an hour!
ReplyDeleteXO,
