I hope you enjoyed the tour of our home! It's always fun for me to look back at the old pictures and see what I have changed. We have a little less than a year left here, and then I'll have a new place to decorate and share pictures of. Until then I'll keep you posted on this one.</div>

A few weeks ago, after scrolling through Pinterest and being inspired by pictures of beautiful homes, I decided I wanted to update my dining room chairs. I definitely wanted to recover them, and maybe even paint them. Their current fabric wasn't bad, I just wanted something I really loved, instead of something I thought was just ok. Plus, recovering chairs is so cheap and easy to do, why not change the fabric to one I really love. Currently, I love ikat prints, so I went to <a href="http://www.fabric.com/">www.fabric.com</a> and searched for ikat and found tons of cute options. Here are the three I was deciding between, next to a picture of the dining room colors they needed to go with.</div>

I ended up settling on this one. I thought it was pretty and the best option color wise for the room.</div>

I took the cushions off the chairs, which is easily done by unscrewing it from the wooden frame. I removed the current fabric on the chairs, to reveal the original fabric when I bought them, a coral fabric. I traced the seat on my fabric, leaving about 2 extra inches all the way around. Then I realized you could see the old coral fabric showing through my new fabric.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
To fix the problem, I cut out some white fabric to cover the coral showing through.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I laid down the seat centered on the white fabric.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Using my staple gun I stapled one side of the fabric to the chair.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then, making sure to pull the fabric tightly around the seat, I stapled the opposite side.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I tried to fold the fabric around the corners nicely, but there's probably a better way to do this.</div>

Last time my sister came to visit, as we always love to do, we visited the many antique stores in town. While there we found some really cheap punch bowl glasses (maybe 2 for a dollar). She got the idea that we should go buy wax and make candles in them. Of course the only option in town to check for wax is Walmart, and the craft section is pretty lacking, so there was no wax to be found and our project came to a halt. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I wasn't going to give up on our candle project that easy, though. The next time I went to visit my parents in NC I stopped by AC Moore and picked up a bag of wicks and soy candle wax. With a 40% off coupon I think I spent about $6.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A few months earlier I had purchased an assortment of 5 aromatherapy fragrant oils on eBay for about $3, which would be perfect for the candle scent. I decided to use lavender, one of my favorite scents. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I got all the cups together, along with some other ones around the house that I thought would make cute candles. I dropped a few pieces of wax into the bottom of each glass and then melted them with a lighter. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Next I poured the bag of wax into a measuring cup that I didn't care about. I would recommend using one you don't care about, because I had trouble fully cleaning the wax off afterwards.</div>

I microwaved the wax in 15 second increments like the bag said to do. This was taking forever, so instead I decided to up the microwave time to 2 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes until the wax was totally melted and clear. Next I added about 15 drops of my lavender oil to the wax. </div>

I have been begging her for years to make me one, but finally decided to make my own. I am decent at painting, but usually dread it because it takes me forever to draw the object on the canvas. My husband on the other hand is great at drawing and is much faster than me, so one night I convinced him to draw the bike and told him that I would paint it in. When I woke up the next morning he had stayed up hours working on it and had already painted the background and started painting in the bike. I took over from there and painted in about 5 coats of white over his bike drawing. So thanks mostly to my husband, we now have this awesome painting in our bedroom.<br />

I am surprised by how much I like the look of antlers painted white in all the recent magazines, blogs, and pins on Pinterest. I never thought I would like them in my home, it always reminded me of a dusty old wood paneled log cabin in the woods. But here I am now having won a pair after bidding on eBay. After seeing all the pictures of them in beautiful homes I started to appreciate the 3rd dimension they give to wall collages which usually consist mostly of flat frames. By painting them white they no longer looked like animal remains hung up on a wall, but more look like something more pristine like bleached coral or a pretty porcelain sculpture.</div>

Here is the picture I saw of them on eBay. Most of the other ones I saw had felt in the middle with the antlers attached, which I thought would make it difficult to paint. These seemed like the best match and they ended up being a great price. I have seen them in antique stores in town with the felt center for $30 which seemed like a good deal, but I wanted to try to beat that price. After lots of sifting through listings on eBay I found these. I only had to compete with one other bidder, and ended up winning them for $16.50 including shipping!</div>

Here they are on the wall right out of the box, before any paint. They looked better than I had expected, from the picture I saw on eBay. They obviously aren't centered or anything, I just hung them on the nail a frame had been hanging on. For a second I actually considered leaving them natural, but my husband hated them, and had the same dusty log cabin feelings I originally had. Luckily he said he would be ok with them if they were at least painted white.</div>

Here they are after 2 coats of paint. I could tell it was going to be a long process, but each coat was quick I just had to wait between coats for it to dry. </div>

I decided I was tired of the plain wood look, and wanted some color on my cable reel (I originally talked about <a href="http://graceadkins.blogspot.com/2012/10/wooden-cable-reel-to-table.html">here</a>). </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I sat and stared at my porch for awhile, trying to think of what color would look best with everything else and decided to try to match the color of my hanging door flower holder.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So with my picture of the flower holder in hand, I went to Lowes and picked out Valspar's Surf Spray and bought a sample size of it, which ended up being the perfect amount. I think the color was a little less green, but I think it still looks good.</div>

Here's how my table looks now. As you can see the bottom rim is unpainted. I ran out of paint at that point, but decided not to buy more because I thought it made it look more interesting and it matches the rug color.</div>

Side note: Sorry for the lack of posts lately! Our house was broken into in February and my computer was stolen, which has made it a bit hard to get a computer to blog from. Since then we have thankfully installed a security system and are feeling much safer!</div>

Moving on to happier things...The spring pinterest challenge!! I have been busy with lots of wedding crafts lately as my cousin just got married last weekend. For her shower and her wedding I made her decorative jars used as vases at the shower and candle holders at the wedding. I was inspired by a few pictures I pinned on pinterest.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This was a very quick and simple pinterest challenge. I bought a pack of Jars at Walmart for about $8. The rest of the supplies I had on hand, so it was a very cheap project too.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

This is a very self explanatory craft. I basically just wrapped different scraps of fabric and string around my jars and either glued or tied it. I tried to add multiple layers to add interest and keep each jar a little different. I kept the colors pretty neutral to go with my cousin's vintage themed wedding.</div>

This summer I purchased a japanese shade like thing made out of pink shutters hinged together at the thrift shop for $10. I didn't have a plan for it, but figured it was a good deal and I could find somewhere to put it. I don't have much pink in my house, so I knew I wanted to paint it another color, but couldn't decide which. Then, I saw on Pinterest someone had painted their wall with a chevron design using painters tape. It looked easy enough so I decided to try it out on my shutters. A friend of mine who just painted her living room grey had a few sample size grey paints that she gave me so I just decided on two different shades of grey and got to work. </div>

Here is my shade before I painted it. I decided to put it in my design room behind my fabric shelf, because the shelves I recently had hanging above the shelf fell and left ugly holes in the wall. This way I could add some texture and interest to that wall and cover up the ugly holes in it. The burlap bag hanging over the shade is an old coffee bean bag I bought at an antique store, I still haven't decided what to do with that. Let me know if you have ideas!</div>

I laid the shade out on an old sheet that I didn't mind getting dirty. I sanded it and then wiped it off with a damp cloth.</div>

Next I painted the shutter with my light grey paint (I ended up having to buy one more sample can of paint for about $3) using a sponge brush. I'm pretty sure any kind of brush would work.</div>

Using a ruler I measured where the center of each shutter was and taped each one down the middle. It was a little tricky to tape because it's not a flat surface like a wall so you have to make sure you press the tape down into each slat.</div>

Finally, the fun part! I painted inside every other diagonal space with my darker grey paint using my sponge brush. I removed the tape after each individual shutter was painted so the paint wasn't too dry and I had a nice clean line. </div>

It really is amazing how much of a difference a fresh coat of paint can make. My cousin is getting married in May and wants to have lots of lanterns around for decor, so I told her she could use the ones from my wedding. They have been living outside so they were in pretty bad shape, and she wanted them to be black, so I decided I would spray paint them and see if that did the job. I think it did! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is how bad the lantern looked before- lots of dirt, mildew, rust, and pine needles</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
First I cleaned the lantern and removed the glass squares from the openings. I cleaned the glass squares, but forgot to get a picture of that.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh05GeiEOKgnbBtdsdu1Mi7Gm6wVxlT9WFRozZefJ5wOe31vHEMsnvAPDyCPh6-fcPkMHfqEfTNGmnu0cODtiaJl6POHFJMKpGuXs2iZnOlbvxW_VJPyHf4QKGqIovjpPySiOhFHcjyjv4/s1600/Photo+9.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh05GeiEOKgnbBtdsdu1Mi7Gm6wVxlT9WFRozZefJ5wOe31vHEMsnvAPDyCPh6-fcPkMHfqEfTNGmnu0cODtiaJl6POHFJMKpGuXs2iZnOlbvxW_VJPyHf4QKGqIovjpPySiOhFHcjyjv4/s320/Photo+9.jpg" style="cursor: move;" width="239" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Next step: spray painting the lanterns. I took them outside so that I was in a well ventilated area. I'm very glad I did this, because even doing it outside gave me a bit of a headache (I probably should have worn a mask). I can't imagine how I would have felt had I done it inside. Plus it was a really nice day so it was perfect weather for spray painting, and a good excuse to be outside. Bonus: you don't have to worry about getting spray paint on the floor. I spread them out evenly on an unfolded box in our back yard and got to work.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I sprayed them with multiple light coats of black glossy spray paint, making sure I kept my wrist moving the whole time, so I didn't end up with thick drippy areas.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
