Pinterest Inspired ~

Hello all!  

I have a new obsession.  Like most of you, I can kill waste spend tons of time looking at Pinterest. You can find the most amazing and creative ideas there. My next project was a complete rip off of this: 



They actually repurposed a dresser into this darling table.  Really smart.  I already had a similar table and a big wall needing some love. 


Here is what I came up with:



They have a gorgeous wooden architectural piece above the rod and wreath.  Me?  I have princess cat beds.  But, come on now... this is real life.  Right?!?  


I still havent even filled the frames yet.  I'm hoping that I will get some great pictures in Kanab this weekend with my new camera.  :-) This is a work in progress, and I will add things as I find them. 




I just used some regular $2 wall hooks I found at Lowes to hang the ribbon and frames from.  Drew is thinking the ribbon is a little too 'matchy-matchy'.  Any thoughts on that?

  3. This is great! I have a curtain rod already on my wall, with a medium size quilt hanging from it over my couch. However, I was thinking of taking the quilt down for Christmas and doing something like this, but wasn't sure how it would look. Your pictures have given me inspiration!

  10. I have seen that project on Pinterest also and instantly fell in love with it. I'm hoping that one day I can create the same display in our hallway. Yours turned out beautiful!

    I would love for you to stop by and link up your project for Functional Friday!
