Hi Everyone. Happy Monday. Happy New Week.
I got a nice package in the mail today. Yep it is some new shower curtains I had made up special for my two bathrooms.
I also want to show you a DIY I did with some old ruffles off a shower curtain that I repurposed on to an ordinary make up vanity stool.
So here goes.........
|
Just an ordinary vanity stool from Home Goods. $29.99 and I had a $20 gift coupon so it brought this stool to a whopping $9.99!!!! |
|
Took the screws out holding the top cushion of the stool. |
|
Had this old shower curtain panel with four rows of ruffles. |
|
Cut the shower curtain ruffles off and just placed them around the top of the stool cushions and staple gunned them onto the bottom of the cushion. Easy Peasy!!!!! |
|
Ta Da new custom vanity stool with ruffles. |
|
Fits right under the make up vanity built into my bathroom. |
|
This make up seat looks cute with her new ruffles. Keeping it real in this picture with stuff all over my counter tops. We are almost done with this master bathroom to show you soon along with the master bedroom. |
Now on to the new shower curtains.
|
I had Terri from Simply French Market make up two shower curtains for my guest bath and master bedroom bath. Yep Teri does beautiful work and I have gotten shower curtains from her before.
Here is Terri's Etsy to check out her beautiful work. simplyfrenchmarket.etsy.com |
Terri did not compensate me in any way for this shout out. I just like to give recognition of beautiful work I have gotten and info to those of you that might need a new shower curtain. I would highly recommend Terri. She does great work and is reasonable with her prices and is quick.
|
I had three rows of lace I found packed away when we moved. So I asked Terri if she could some how put the lace onto the shower curtains. Terri said yes and I sent her the lace and she did a great job layering the three different rows of lace onto the shower curtain ruffle. |
|
I love both of the shower curtains. Gives a nice look to both my bathrooms. |
|
LOL I just noticed in this picture that I took off the vintage hanger hook I had on the old post. I painted it and forgot to put it back up before I snapped these pictures. Yikes my mind sometimes!!!!
Have a great week. I am taking a personal day away from the house tomorrow to spend with a friend. Love those mental health days! Hope you have a great week.
The kitchen is done. I just have a few things to finish up and then I can show you the open shelves and how much of a difference it makes to have them instead of the vintage bakery cabinet. I will also show you where the vintage bakery cabinet ended up. So stay tuned. Kris :) |
Your new shower curtains are gorgeous.....the new vanity stool looks amazing too. I like that you were able to re-use the old shower curtain and make it into something fabulous. I have the same tiered ruffled shower curtain that I am not currently using so I might have to borrow your idea for my vanity stool now :o)

Beautiful shower curtains, Kris. I love how you incorporated your lace into her design. I think you're smart to have them made, I have searched and searched for curtains and I rarely find what I am looking for. I'll have to keep Terri's information on hand! :) Thanks!
ReplyDeleteShe does beautiful work. So you!! Great job on the vanity stool. Perfect!
ReplyDeleteJudy
You amaze me, you two have done so much, time to stop and enjoy.
ReplyDeleteLuv the shower curtains and how she added on your lace. What a sweet little vanity stool! You and Terry have been busy beavers indeed.
ReplyDeletehappy new weeks .
Kiss some cute baby cheeks!
It looks simple beautiful love the chair cover as well. With love Janice
ReplyDeleteBeautiful job on the stool, Kris! And lovely shower curtain! Terri does lovely work! Can't wait to see your redone kitchen!
ReplyDeleteHi Kim! The stool is so cute and probably an easy clean with the shower curtain fabric. Terri is one talented seamstress - so beautiful and so neat that she incorporated your lace. Jane
ReplyDeleteYou've got it looking like home. I love the ruffles. I feel like I lost ME in the move. It's taking me a little while to find myself in this new place.
ReplyDeleteLove it all. And happy to see you figured out how to add a Pinterest button as previously requested by one of your other fans...I can see many "PINS" in my future. LOL
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI love the easy peasy stool. :-) So cute!!
Have a fun day with friends!

The shower curtains look beautiful and your stool makeover turned out lovely as well, Kris. It was such a great idea to cover it with a ruffled shower curtain!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day with your friend!

What a great transformation on that stool. Love how you personalized it to fit your style.
ReplyDeleteKris*** love love love that new stool with the ruffles. You are quite creative and have such an eye for making everything so beautiful. Those shower curtains are gorgeous and that added lace looks amazing. Enjoy your day with your friend, you sure deserve it with all the work you have been doing
ReplyDeleteGive Cooper a hug for me :)

Genius. Brilliant. INSPIRING!!!!!! AHHHHH! OK, I was never one for a lot of ruffles, believe it or not! I am weird. I am feminine, but there are just some things I could never see in my décor. HOWEVER.
ReplyDeleteI am now into vintage French lace (for my photos) but I am starting to feel a pull toward a ruffled bed duvet....maybe for Christmas! But as I see what you did here with this stool, I am blown away by what you did with this. Kris, that is awesome. Now I need to find some ruffles for a project myself! LOTS OF LOVE TO YA!
Stunning! You are such a genius!!! Great job, your bathroom looks spectacular!
ReplyDeleteLove, Love, Love your new shower curtains. So light and airy and lovely. The lace adds the perfect detail to make the curtains extra special.
ReplyDeleteMary Alice
So inspiring Kris! Fabulous reuse of ruffles and lace :).
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your day with your friend. You've earned it!

great idea for the stool! lovely shower curtains.
ReplyDeleteYou make it look so easy!! Your stool is darling with the ruffles and of course, the shower curtains are works of art. You're smart.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shower curtains and I love all the lace. Cute idea for covering the vanity stool. Ready made charm! Enjoy your day out with your friend...we all need that from time to time.
ReplyDeleteLove the stool and shower curtain.....
ReplyDeleteYour stool turned out great and those shower curtains are beautiful! Enjoy your day.
ReplyDeleteBoth the shower curtains and the stool look very nice. I like seeing projects such as the shower curtains because I'm one of those (apparently) "old school people" who can sew, I look at these for inspiration...and then go make my own and save a ton. :-)
ReplyDeleteI wish I had the sewing talent but do not so I have to pay for my pretties. So happy you can make something special for yourself after looking at inspiration. Have a great day. Thanks for your visit.

Now those are some beautiful shower curtains! Love the added lace and so fitting for the rooms. Laughed at the missing hook - been there, done that! The ruffled stool is perfect too and can't beat that price! Looking forward to the kitchen reveal but in the meantime, enjoy your girlfriend time.
ReplyDeleteYou did such a great job with the stool! You had a vision and brought it to fruition beautifully! The shower curtain is lovely as well!
ReplyDeleteHi Kris,
ReplyDeleteOoh la la ... Pretty frou frou you made from repurposed, looks so sweet. Lovely new shower curtains, enjoy.
xoxo,
Vera

ReplyDeleteKris, you always put that little something extra that takes your "pretty" to a new level. Love the shower curtains and the stool has transformed into perfection..Happy Tuesday..xxo Judy
ReplyDeleteLove your shower curtains! I purchased one from Terri and she does amazing work. Thanks for sharing the vanity stool, so pretty. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Kris. Stunning make overs! Have a wonderful day with your friend.

ReplyDeleteYour bathroom is lovely...the shower curtains are beautiful and I love how you re-did the stool!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute vanity stool cover you made! Your new shower curtains are cute too. Ruffles just speak your name!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see the kitchen. I love the stool. The shower curtain is wonderful. I had such a hard time find a shabby shower curtain a few months ago.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you are blogging again. I love your posts. Thanks for keeping it real. Life isn't perfect is it?
I've never been a ruffled girl but that sure has changed in the last year. The stool and shower curtains are so freakin cute. Hope you had a good day with your friend....
ReplyDeleteOMG, beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful, Kris. I love that she was able to work your own lace into the curtains. So pretty! Great job, Kris. You have done a LOT in a short time! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteThe shower curtains are fairy! And the makeover is great, i love the ruffles

The bathrooms look terrific and love the job you did on your vanity stool. You are such a great decorator.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing the master bedroom and kitchen.
Hope you have a great day with your friend.

A pretty petticoat for a rather plain contemporary dressing table stool. What a bit of ruffled linen can bring to the beauty you create.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy creating Kris!

Hi Kris, your shower curtains are just plain beautiful. You have so much light in your rooms and with the beautiful white - well, it's like things just glow! xx Jo
ReplyDeleteIt's so beautiful, it looks like a petticoat dress <3
ReplyDeletelovely shower curtains; they'd be torn apart here, cats and kittens would think them play pretties as they dangled on the floor. lol
ReplyDeleteLove that vanity stool so much ♥
