What’s on the table besides food?
I wanted to fancy up the table a bit since my roses stopped blooming. I really do miss having them on my table for the last 4 weeks. Rocky is missing his rose petal salads too. So, I had to make some paper ones, at least for the color. I made them from a Martha Stewart video. They were fun to make while watching play-it-now movies on Netflix.
After I made them, I needed vases to put them in so I spray painted some bottles from the recycle bin. I followed Blaire’s advice for the painting.
Well then, I couldn’t just place the bottles (now vases) on a plain, bare table, now could I? So, then I had to paint a table runner. I have a huge roll of primed canvas that I cut, hemmed and painted (copying my pillow design). Then I sealed it with a few coats of matte gel medium.
Now if we (I) could learn to keep the table cleared and clean.
You areso, um… creative + resourceful! love this + love the idea of painting old bottles+ jars to brighten things up. i have so many that Idon’t know what to dowith. Now i know… makes me want to make! Thanks Regina.
The flowers are so bright and cheerful. The bottles made great vases and your table runner is so pretty. Very creative.
Love it all, especially the table runner!
you lead the brightest life!
