Deer project.
While visiting my daughter this past week , she took me to this wonderful antique market where I picked up this deer head.
1. I sanded this guy down, cleaned him up, and painted him with a creamy white and silver glitter paint. Very lightly done.
2. purchased a Wreath and added some silver and gold embellishments.
Enjoy !!!

No sew ~ 10 minute Bunny Pillows !!! Just in time for Easter..
This project was inspired by my sister, Lynda.. She is amazingly talented and this past Christmas I was blessed to be able to spend some time with her. While out shopping at one of our favorite home stores, I ran across this beautiful table runner with a regal looking buck and embellishments.. It was perfect for my holiday theme !!! I didn’t really need a runner though … but I did need some new holiday pillows.. So my very ingenious sister prompted me to buy it… The result is at the end of this post… Thanks sis ~ I have decided to do the very same thing with an Easter runner.. It beats having tons of pillows to store..
Easy and fun slip covers for you pillows..
Step 1.
Supplies needed .One Table runner, Two square pillow inserts, I used 18×18 size.. Scissors .and pretty ribbon.
Step 2.
Lay out your runner for cutting.
Step 3.
Cut your runner in half.
Step 4.
Squeeze some of the air out of your pillows.. I use down pillows because they hold a great shape.. Work your pillow into the insert.
Step 5.
Once you pillows have been worked into your inserts, you will have a long piece of fabric left over. It should look like this..
Step 6.
Fold the extra fabric into the insert. It should look like this.
Step 7.
Gather the extra fabric and tie off with ribbon of your choice.

Two beautiful 🐇 bunny pillows.. Just in time for Easter..
This beautiful buck pillow was also made with a table runner, that particular runner was pretty wide, so it created more of a square shape. I used the same exact pillow inserts, but as you can see the shape is different.. Theirs no right or wrong way, just so long as the inserts fills it up..

This project was inspired by a client that I had decided to mentor on “How To” paint and recreate a new look with her current furniture. So I have picked up these side tables, such that I could put together a step by step tutorial for you.
Day 1 ~ Project
Step 1. Clean all the surfaces that you will be painting, windex and warm water works well.
