Hi Holly for thanks for swinging by. I do love how the bench turned out and it looks great at the foot of my bed…except for when my hubby puts his shirts and pants on it! UGH. Oh well…got to chose my battles.
Wishing you a lovely weekend.
Hugs, Lynn

Hi Carol, thanks for your kind comments and I’m really quite taken with my HomeRight sprayer..it’s the bees knees. Anxious to put it to work on other things around my home. And thrilled that you’ll be at Haven this year. I will be attending as a first-timer and really excited for it. I look forward to meeting you in person.
Have a great week.
Hugs, LYnn

In reply to Ellen.

Hi Ellen…thanks so much for your kind comments! And thanks for the suggestion that it might be a dresser stool! I’ve been calling it a bench, but it’s a little short for a bench, yet too big for a stool. I’m thrilled to realize that it probably is a dresser stool! And the embroidery on the fabric is one of my favorite elements of the ‘dresser stool’. And it was really easy to do.
Really appreciate you coming by today.
Hugs, Lynn

Hi Ann and thanks for coming by to visit and leaving your kind comment. I do love the color…it’s so calming. And it was sheer kismet that I was able to find the fabric, embroidery floss and paint all in that color…truly meant to be!
Wishing you a lovely week.
Hugs, Lynn

In reply to Carol @ The Red Painted Cottage.

Thanks Carol…always relieved to know that the tutorials make sense to someone other than me! You just never know. And I guess it’s the creatives in us that generate the voices…little scary, huh?
Anyway, thanks for coming by to visit and comment. You know it is much appreciated.
Hugs, Lynn

In reply to Gina.

Hey there Gina…the embroidery was truly the easiest part…actually it was all easy, but i could do the embroidery planted in front of the TV one night, so that’s a win in my book! Re-doing this little bench really makes me want to do more, so I’m keeping my eyes open for little pieces in need of love as well.
Wishing you a lovely week.
Hugs, Lynn

In reply to Linda at Mixed Kreations.

Linda…with all the painting you do, you really need to try the paint sprayer…it was so easy and I didn’t get any runs. Just needed to follow the directions on where to stop and start. I am definitely looking forward to using it again…and soon.
Thanks for swinging by today and leaving your kind comments.
Hugs for a great week,
Lynn
