Comments (7)I'd just stuff it with whatever you have on hand. You can drive yourself crazy obsessing over clean/not so clean/lightly cleaned. They are great pincushions btw, and no one is going to know what is inside besides you!! I drive myself crazy with my cross-stitch. I know no one is going to know that I put the wrong color on that stitch, but I have to make it right by golly!! Years later of course, I couldn't tell you where I made the mistake if my life depended on it. Since you have roving, do you spin? My wheel is calling me as we speak, from inside a closet!! I have dog hair I need to do for a friend. Soon, soon!...See MoreWhat's your latest obsession?
Comments (61)SunnyC, you should start a new obsession thread every month. I enjoy reading everyone elses "preoccupation"lol! obsession Compulsive preoccupation with a fixed idea or an unwanted feeling or emotion, often accompanied by symptoms of anxiety. A compulsive, often unreasonable idea or emotion. You asked for a pic of my finished stenciled wall. I did this project at work, not at home. I wanted something a bit over the top in scale. The scroll is almost 3' high though I wish I could have found one about 5'. The walls are 24' so it would have been kinda cool if I brought them up even higher. Didn't want to stencil from an extension ladder though. A broken bone is not in my plans for the future! Anyway, here is a pic. Product has been hastily thrown back in place, so just look at the wall please:) For perspective, the pink is painted to a height of 9'. The stenciling goes around the corner about another 20'. So that project has now led me to the next phase of my obsession which is painting this harlequin pattern on an opposite wall. I'm thinking just a shot of it. Three rows wide and going up about 12'. I found a company that offers diamond shaped stencils in a 4' x 2' size. I could achieve the Harlequin pattern with painters tape, a level and a tape measurer, but that's giving me a headache thinking about it.......See MoreAha moment on gray obsession
Comments (26)When I first saw all the grays and neutral tones a few years ago, the first thing I thought of was the 1959 version of the movie 'Imitation of Life'. There's a lot of gray in the home interiors in that movie. I've always loved it. My parents house was mostly grays and neutrals until the 70s, and then Mom did the green and gold thing. I always attributed the recent years affection of gray to the return of mid-century modern. Here's a link I googled that has a few pictures of the Imitation of Life house. Here is a link that might be useful: Imitation of Life photos...See MoreIdaClaire
