Our Hopeful Home: My Shabby Creek Cottage Windfall

September 23, 2011

A while back I entered A Vintage Affaire's 300 Follower Giveaway. And guess what? I won! Today I just wanted to share with you the goodies I chose with my $50.00 Etsy store credit to Shabby Creek Designs. Gina from The Shabby Creek Cottage has such a lovely store that I had no trouble finding something I liked!

Without a doubt burlap is still "in" (at least in my house!) so I couldn't resist ordering this burlap pillow cover.

I absolutely fell in love with the big, fluffy white flower on the front! Just gorgeous.

I also chose another romantic decor item.

These are cafe style curtains, hand-painted in French script:

"A house is made of bricks and beams a home is made of love and dreams."

I really thought that was a beautiful saying. They're now hanging in my kitchen window, over the sink. I like how they look, but I think for my purposes I might actually add an inch or two of burlap and/or cotton duck fabric to create a border along the bottom. {Call me crazy, I guess. How many projects do I really need to be juggling at one time? Don't answer that.}

My thanks go out to Sherrie from A Vintage Affaire for her generous giveaway.

And don't forget to follow/like me on Facebook and Twitter!

Have a great weekend, all!
