Projects

Well since we've moved I've been working on a few projects. Right before we moved we acquired a table and six chairs from a neighbor. They were in good shape, except for the hideous fabric. So I decided to learn how to upholster. Reupholstery is a lot harder than I imagined it was going to be, but I had a lot of fun in the process. Thanks mom for helping me along the way!

The other project I 've finished is window treatments. I was in Texas for Sean's wedding and had my grandma direct me in making these drapes. It was also a learning process was also a learning process.
