green

Caitlin Creer has talked about her color of choice is green. She has recently posted some pretty little things that she has helped in designing that have totally inspired me to bring some more green around these here parts. specifically this kind of graphic green.

this last image was the one that i was super excited about. she had that green little pillow available online for purchase, only it was around $50....and well i just don't have kind of money, at least not while we are on the plan...



{despite i think against our dinner table they look a little brown, i promise that they are green} and then i stumbled across these at of all places, stein mart! they are napkins that were a little less than $2 each. i went ahead and got four of them. so back up plan if i don't want to make them into pillows we can just have great napkins :)

and then i came across this.....
maybe some chairs too....





sew fun!

oh my goodness yes i was just that cheesy for the title of this, but i am just so excited about how these pillows turned out! i found this material at a thrift store for $2. so my thoughts were to have a sewing lesson for some potential pillow covers...enter talented mother in law. she sewed them up and also gave me sewing 101 as well.





and for reals i am so happy with the results! only my mother in law may not have realized the door she opened b/c now i can't stop thinking of more sewing projects
