New Look for an Old Friend

Happy Monday Blog Friends, After a wonderful weekend, it is time to start a new week and join the fun all week long at, From the Cottage Craft Room brought to you by Etsy Cottage Style. While on a weekend treasure stop, I found a gorgeous queen size hand crocheted bedcover. Oh it is beautiful and in perfect condition. In fact, it was just what I was looking for to use as a chair cover. Just look at this pretty rose design.

In my studio you might recall when I shared a comfy cozy chair. It is a tan color and I have had it for a bedroom chair for years. When I added it to the studio it needed a little shabby twist so I added some crochet pieces that I had while thinking I would hunt for just the right larger crocheted treasure to cover it better. Well that day arrived and just look how the redesign turned out. Here is the Before Chair. I might say it is very comfortable and does also recline, but not a large style recliner. More of a ladies chair size and fits perfect in my studio for reading or taking a break. Well, breaks are far and few between, but whenever, I have the spot ready! LOL

Here is the After Chair covered with the beautiful crocheted treasure. I wrapped and fit using the design as a guide. No cutting or sewing, just two large safety pins hidden on the sides. It can easily be removed for washing or using in another way, which happens a lot with me~~~

What do you think? Pretty and french chic yes? Shabby and cozy? Here is pic with a couple added pillows and the spot it lives in my studio.

Welcome to the Cottage Craft Room from Etsy Cottage Style

Hello Friends and Happy Spring. This week we are sharing what is going on in our cottage craft rooms from Etsy Cottage Style. For me my frenchy toile studio is buzzing with fun and happy hours of creating. Springtime always inspires me and I find it easy to lose myself in time creating and enjoying the process. With warmer days and lots of sunshine, the roses right outside my studio window are full of buds ready to burst with gorgeous color giving me inspiration to create this new vintage treasure.
Named "Rose Garden Lace", this vintage cake keeper is blooming with fluffy pink cottage roses on a creamy soft background. Light sage green stripes with lacey stroke details trail all around with shading and highlights. I added a large glass plate for ready serving and left the lid unpainted for food safety. The lid has a beautiful ceramic flower knob to complete "Rose Garden Lace."




And, lots more treasures are making their way to the shelves HERE, but for now, here are just a few to share in the Cottage Craft Room happening all this week from Etsy Cottage Style. Visit won't you? and see what more participants are sharing this week.
