Embroidery Hoop DIY Decor

Over the past several months I have been collecting embroidery hoops at yard sales and estate sales.  Not knowing what I wanted to do with them, they just sat in a box.  But then I had an idea!  

I took these hoops



And decided to put bandanas in them.

Problem was...there was a lot of excess bandana that didn't need to show.


So I cut the bandana down.  Even though the edges weren't perfect, they wouldn't show on the wall.

Here's what they looked like:


It was time to put them on the wall.  I didn't want a certain pattern.  Just something kinda fun.  Here's my finished wall!  


I needed something to go on the wall behind my front door.  This was the perfect place for these.  A small wall that just needed a little something to spice things up and add some color. It was perfect!

So there you go!  A cheap project that helps decorate my house!

2013 - Complete Projects

Well, it's 2013 and I have made a goal that I should be able to stick to...completing projects that I start!  Should be easy enough, right?  Well, we'll see.  Let's pray that I can do this.  The best part is that you can be my accountable partner.  Yes, that's right.  Any of you who read my blog, keep bugging me about projects you want to see completed.  

Also, if you have any suggestions for projects for me to do, please let me know.  Remember all the yard sale and estate sale items I've gotten over the last year?  Well, if there's any ideas on ways to fix them up and use them throughout my house, let me know!  I need as many projects as I can for this year so I can stay super busy!

So...I couldn't write a post and not leave you hanging for a few things, could I?

Here's what I have in the works:






So there ya go!  Has it peeked your interest at all?  Keep bugging me to finish these!

Hope you all have a very happy 2013.  Let's get to doing lots of DIY this year!!!
