Sew Cute!


Whenever I find unfinished wood furniture, I get really excited because it is a blank canvas. I found this desk at LCM, it looked like it was in a boy's room. At first I was just going to make it a desk...but as I went through my house and saw my sewing machine and all my notions making a mess of my dining room table, I thought, this would make the perfect sewing table! I wanted to have a sewing "theme" to the piece, so I modge podged scrap fabrics I had to the fronts of the drawers. Found $.77 drawer pulls at Lowes, still waiting to find handles to match. Under the top fabric, I inserted a piece of batting under the fabric to make it a fixed pin cushion. I am really pleased with the result..the fabric application was so easy, I think you will see a lot more of my things with this affect soon!
