Drop Cloth Project Wrap-up and Linky Invitation

Have you made anything using a drop cloth?  I have actually used it to make curtains that you can read about here and here.  Impressive projects continue to pop up and I found a few you might enjoy if you haven't already seen them. 


chevron table runner:  A Thoughtful Place
Courtney actually made this while her kids were napping.  Talk about a woman on a mission ;)

coffee table slip cover:  Faith's Place
The addition of the trim gave this slip cover the perfect finishing touch.

pom-pom fringe curtains:  Savvy Southern Style
I love that Kim added pom-pom fringe to these curtains.  Kim, can you come to my house?
sofa slip cover:  Design Garden
The frilly skirt adds a nice feminine touch to this sofa.

 reupholstered chair:  Restoration House 
This chair looks like a million dollars, and it has my wheels turning for a little project of my own.


Have you used painter's canvas in a recent project?
  Feel free to link it below.
Don't worry if it is an old project, just link it.
The link will remain open until Friday.

  6. I remember Mrs.Limestone created a skirt for here craft/sewing table out of this. I am thinking of trying to do the same with our desk in the home office.

  7. Hi Rene! I'm currently sewing a dropcloth slipcover for my sofa. Not sure if I'll finish before Friday, but this party gives me more motivation. Hope you enjoyed your white Christmas! Lisa

  8. Great fabrics and results. Love the pleated table cover with trim. Every room needs some softness that reaches the floor.

  22. Great party, Rene! Lots of good ideas to be had! I might just have to whip up a post on my couch to include here (if I can get my act together!) Though I didn't make it myself, a local seamstress made a dropcloth slipcover for my leather camelback sofa in November. She did a beautiful job and it has really changed the look of my living room for the better.

  23. Such great ideas, Rene. Will have to post about my curtains asap--I lined them with dropcloth canvas!

  24. I haven't YET, but I'm dying to! They look amazing in so many different uses, but I just haven't tried it yet. Love!

  25. I still can't believe how much have been done with drop cloths! HAve you seen Miss Mustard Seed's livingroom redo? The chairs she did are so beautiful. I think she slipcovered her sofa with them too!

    Now, let me go figure out something I can use drops cloths for!
    Have a great day Rene.

  26. swoon.

    Inexpensive, customizable, huge; drop cloths really are the most perfect fabric.

  27. I know I'm too late for the party but it was my inspiration to get moving on my drop cloth project. Thanks for the kick in the rear - what great motivation!
