It's all in the details

The dining area will be in the living room bay window. I made this "glass" topped table last night with 2 turned spindles, a square woodsie and a Pringles potato chip can lid. Since the area is so tiny I think the clear top on the table will keep the table from looking too big for the space.
I moved the white wing chair to the bedroom and I'm using a black wooden armchair with gold upholstery in the living room now. The new pillows are in the same gold fabric. It picks up the gold color in the wallpaper and ties the furniture pieces together.
I also made pillows for the sectional as well as a lap quilt for those snuggle up and read days. :) I am very happy with the layout of the sectional but not so much with how the vinyl I used to upholster it. I may disassemble it and use a different fabric. I'm still considering...

Well, I need to go pay bills...I'd much rather make minis or blog about them but real life has a way of intruding. :) I hope you all have a lovely week!

Yes, I'm one of your loyal followers, since you bring me back to my girlhood. I loved dollhouses. And you might find amusing my own dollhouse blog, about what my boys have DONE to my old dollhouse. Visit my blog if you like: it's called "Spiderman's Dollhouse." You can imagine. Actually, you may be horrified! :))
