Home Decor

We also spent some time improving our home decor. We have had two of these dining room chairs since we were married and decided to reupholster them. Our selections in McPherson we very limited but we were able to find a cute color patter to match the rest of the living room.

I also thought it would be fun to make some of my own wall hangings. I had a lot of fun making these beautiful pictures for my walls and fireplace mantle.

I have a few more vases to pick up and then the mantle will be completely accessorized. I'll post a picture once it is completely finished. The family tiled I made a while ago at a super Saturday, the tall paisley prints are what I made this morning before mom and dad took off.

That all looks good. I like the Art. How long does it take to do it. Well how long did it take for you to do it your first time.

The little one took about an hour and the two big ones combined took about an hour. Not too shabby. I'm contemplating trying to sell one on ebay to see how it does because it is relatively easy and very unique! I'd buy it! :)

How much does it cost you to make it and what will you try to sell it for? I love what you did. You have become quite the suzy homemaker.

It cost about $21 to make. I'm not sure on the price, plus I would have to add on probably about $10 for shipping. Any suggestions?
