DIY drawer or cabinet knobs tutorial

Today I'm going to show you how I made these cute, fun little knobs for my kitchen renovation.  (This is my first real tutorial, so if it isn't clear or too wordy...sorry!) I love the idea of using something so "me" in my kitchen.  Of course, I also like that it isn't permanent, and I can change the hardware to something more "traditional" at any point.  The sky is the limit with how to customize these, and the end result looks very professional...

Swedish / Scandanavian Christmas Doll

This is a sewing project I designed and completed just before Christmas.  I gifted her to my mom.  I love her!  

I had to paint the centers in her eyes to get the look I wanted.

I really like the gray, white, and red.

Reupholstered Ottoman - DIY, No Sew!

I've been very busy since moving into our new home last month. I'm going to try to post a lot of my house projects here. The big project will be a new kitchen, and that post will come later (I'm still waiting for my Ikea domsjo single bowl sink- it's backordered!).

Yesterday I reupholstered an ottoman for my living room. I forgot to take pictures until the fabric was already detached from the ottoman...woops! I used a no-sew method (my sewing machine hasn't made it to the new house yet) where you fold fabric under at the corners to create a straight seam.

It adds nice color to my mostly white living room :) I'm planning on new turned legs, which will be white.
