Bathroom

I finally found some glass

 door knobs for my shelf

in my bathroom.

 Reflection in the mirror

 

lovely glass door knobs to hang  our towels on to dry

 I dislike wet towels in the hamper.

Details in the shelf

The white painted tin square

Added some accessories 

What do you think?

 We love it.

 An I guess that's what matters.

love and blessings!

A New Love

Aprons

 Found  this one at a local

thrift store.

It feels so broken in.
Wonder if they are missing it?
I know I'm enjoying it.

I have made some from new fabric

but none feel quite so comfy as this one.
 Maybe I need to were them more often
 so they need more washing.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving

Scrubbies / Dishrags

                                           I recently tried to make some scrubbers
                                  so I bought 3 yards of netting and cut it into 1 1/2 "strips

                                                             Which made a Hugh pile

                                           
                                       I tied the netting together and knitted it together with
                                                                100% cotton yarn.

                                               
                                                                     finished result

                                                      
                                                            I love using it to rinse dishes
                                                           it has just enough roughness to
                                                           get the grime off of the dishes with
                                                                        little effort.
                                                               So far I made 2 of them
                                                                   and use them daily.
                                                              This a small project
                                                          I can carry in my purse and
                                                           knit whenever I'm waiting on
                                                    someone or something, or Traveling
                                                     or just sitting around watching TV.
                                                   I also like to make dish rags and have
                                                    made lots of those as gifts and sold a
                                                           few. This is also a quick
                                                    and easy project that can be taken
                                                                    with you.
                                         here's a few dishrags I have in my knitting basket

Recent Finds

                                       
                                          I found these at a thrift store
                                                             all white and lovely

 
                                                     found a special place for them in my
                                                                     work room.

Bathroom Makeover

                                             My Master bathroom needed a makeover
                                                    so I painted the walls with a
                                                       Benjamin Moore paint
                                                    #1565 Mount Saint Ann  
                                           took down the mirror which had 1 cabinet  
                                        on each side with hearts cut into the door with
                                           chicken wire behind it. and the light fixture
                                           above it was 3 Hollywood style light bulbs.
                                                            YES it was time.

                                        I replaced it with this light fixture from Lowe's

                         
                                            And the mirror is a simple beveled edge mirror

                                                       Very clean and simple. I should
                                                       have taken before pictures but
                                                      forgot . I guess I was to excited
                                                     to get started. I also made a new
                                                   curtain for the window. Took white
                                                  fabric and made panels and used old
                                                    hankies, found at a salvage store,
                                                for a valance.Notice not all the hankies
                                                             match and I like that.

 

I'm looking for some old glass door knobs.

5 to be exact.  I'd like

to use the door knobs as my hooks

 to hang the towels under neath a shelf.

 I went to some salvage shops,

but no luck so far. Guess I'll keep looking.

have a wonderful week end

 love and blessing
