New Beginnings

I made a bargain with a friend. She found Munki Munki pyjamas on sale for $20 (yes, I know!) and bought me a pair to deconstruct for my stash. I am going to make her a mini to help cover a mirror in her sewing room that she wishes wasn't there. Only the previous house owner saw fit to very effectively glue said mirror to the wall. How come it's only ever stuff you don't like that is so permanently hung?

Operation 'mirror cover-up' has begun. 


There is not a plan (as per usual) but I'm liking the start.

    The previous owners of our house painted every room without moving any of the furniture (including painted around a vase!). Lovely start indeed

    Delightful start-up star!! We bought a house many years ago with a large "carpet" wall piece of Columbus' three Spanish ships sailing across the Atlantic (?) that was nailed to the wall and they insisted that we have it???? When I finally could not stand to look at it another minute, my husband took it down and we discovered 32 holes of various sizes drilled into the wall. No wonder they didn't want to take it down!!

    I have a stuck mirror too. I wanted to redo my small bathroom and discovered that the builders glued the sucker to the wall. That ended the redo project.
