30 days of sewing with Art Gallery Fabrics

Uncategorizedlittlew8

I was so excited to be asked to be chosen for 30 days of sewing with Art Gallery Fabrics! I had such a hard time choosing which fabric I wanted to use but it finally dawned on me that our OLD [and I mean, old] glider needed a makeover in a major way for baby boy's nursery!We've had this glider since just before my oldest was born [he's now 5] and it was new to us at that time but not new. We bought it at a local goodwill. It needed some serious TLC so my sister recovered it for me -- can you believe at the time I didn't even know how to sew?! I gave it a good coating in new spray paint and it was like a new chair!I've been agonizing over what to do about a glider -- our nursery is so small so a big comfy chair was pretty much out and I really loved the comfy level of our current glider, the look just didn't fit baby boy's nursery theme anymore.I used Bound in Canvas by April Rhodes and literally just winged it on a hope and a prayer. I used the cushions as my "pattern" and it was a really short + simple makeover project! And holy moly isn't my little guy THE CUTEST!? I just want to eat him up.The last step in the glider makeover was a fresh coat of spray paint. I'm kind of obsessing over grey right now [if you haven't been able to tell by my instagram feed] so it was the natural choice. I grabbed two cans at Home Depot and it was done in about an hour. I love fast + easy projects!I can't wait to share more of his nursery with you guys! This is probably the most neutral and simple of the three nurseries I've put together and I just love sitting in there dreaming about our new little one.This blog post was sponsored by Art Gallery Fabrics and photos by Scott Mosher Photography.-LWPH
