Hey, girls!
My sister is coming this weekend! I'm so excited for her to be here because I have lots of projects planned for us to do together {she doesn't know that, yet... she says with an evil taskmaster tone}.
I had to show you how we decorated the bed in The Little Red House for her stay.
Do I mean anything by this? Of course, I do. Hellooo... she's my sister!
Even better...my LITTLE sister.
The idea for the "Wicked" banner came from Miss Mustard Seed.
I love her stuff and want to grow up to be just like her.
The bed was my grandmother's. It was 1960's maple - not 1930's oak - therefore, I felt comfortable painting it FLAT black. Think it looks cool with the wood on the walls.
The holster came from a little antique store in Franklin, IN. Quite the cowboy look.
For the "cowhide" pillow, I tea-stained black and WHITE fabric that were curtains in the girls' room. Then sewed them together with chunky flat-fold seems.
The witch pillow...I ADORE the witch pillow. Mostly because I love using freezer paper stencils. I used the CriCut to cut a stencil of the witch - ironed it on to the fabric {waxy side down} - then used soft black to paint the witch onto the fabric/drop cloth. Then whip it into a pillow.
Sidebar: I get all of my "pillowforms" from Goodwill. Usually, throw pillows are only a dollar and after a wash they are more than great under another homemade pillow cover.
The dress form is dressed in a thrift store black witch-like dress and draped in orange organza. The orange came from the fabric bin at Goodwill. Kinda fun, huh?
I'll share our weekend projects soon.
Sleep tight!
Becky
