Linda’s DIY by Design: October 2017

I found an idea on Pinterest. It was simply a card with a ton of beautiful ruffled fabrics. I took that idea and using a 5x8 wood tag, developed it further into a piece of Home Decor that can be hung up or displayed in an easel. I was privileged to use some beautiful Reneabouquets laces/trims, Glitter Glass, Trinkets and the luscious Beautiful Board Product! The items used in this project will be below the pictures with direct links to each of them. Since this project has a lot of detail and writing those out would require a published manuscript (LOL), I will include the You Tube video which features the entire project in a start to finish format! There will be a link below the photos a well! Thanks for stopping by!

Fabric Shabby Chic Pumpkin (DT project for Reneabouquets)

When I took a look at Reneabouquets Beautiful Board Quilling Pattern Set, my eyes feasted on the "leaves" in this set and since its that time of year, I knew those "leaves" would be a perfect compliment to creating a shabby chic fabric pumpkin from scratch!! I have never created a fabric pumpkin from scratch before so I did a little research, came up with a few options of my own and (PRESTO!!!) a pumpkin has emerged! I used beautiful laces from Reneabouquets to adorn my pumpkin with and also used one of those laces to create a flower for my pumpkin! I hung some beautiful trinkets from Reneabouquets Fairy Trinket pack, along with other pearls, baubles, charms and paper flowers from my own supply, a few more Reneabouquets Beautiful Board Shabby Heart bits and then finished up with some beautiful Reneabouquets Glitter Glass to add a beautiful shimmery effect!

Here are the photos along with a You Tube video showing a start to finish process

of decorating my shabby pumpkin! If you are at all curious as how to create the actual pumpkin,

there is also a link to that on the video itself!

Links to Reneabouquets products used on this project will be below as well!
