ReplyDeleteI went back to look at the upholstered chair tutorial. Well done! Do you think you'll ever attempt another one?! Linda
ReplyDeleteThank you for the sweet comments! You inspire me! Linda, I thought that maybe I would try it again, but now I am having second thoughts. We shall see ;)
ReplyDeleteI love seeing your projects...I missed a few, like your Greek Key night stands...love that! you are so creative...what a great idea to do a recap!
ReplyDeleteRene,
ReplyDeleteYou had so many great projects. I enjoyed seeing them again. It's hard to pick a favorite, but I'd have to say the drapes. I would never have thought to dye some! Happy New Year!
So many wonderful projects in 2011 - can't wait to see what you have in store for 2012. Wishing you all the best in the New Year!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting the upholstery link--I'm debating whether or not I want to attempt a reupholstery project myself.

What a year of AMAZING projects! I LOVE the chair you re-upholstered. The shape of the chair is just amazing and it looks gorgeous in that linen.
ReplyDeleteYou have a gorgeous home, Rene. Nice photos too. I also have to mention that I covet that vase full of hellebores on your sideboard.
ReplyDeleteYou are a true inspiration, Rene! You have had a busy year and accomplished so many beautiful projects. You do everything with style and class. I am glad to have discovered your blog and look forward to getting to know you more in 2012!

ReplyDeleteLots of hard work in 2011; how fun will it be to put all that expertise to good use in 2012. You're right about the difference the board and batten makes. Who would've thought. . . Jo @ Let's Face the Music
ReplyDeleteSorry about the last comment I got my blogs mixed up. Your projects are great for their coloration and details. I especially love that you introduce a touch of bright color into a calm space. Jo @ Let's Face the Music
ReplyDeleteRene, you are amazingly talented! I now rememeber that Swiss cross pillow that I wanted to copy... See - that is how inspirational you are!(I rarely copy others).
