2. Fabric - Before & After

Home Fabrics is a store I ADORE...It is definitely worth checking out if you live near Orem. I know there's also an SLC store.
Anyways, thanks to their awesomely cheap fabric, I got to re-do my family room for about $20!
In this photo, the left throw pillow is the old and the right pillow is the NEW! The lively colors really brighten up the room!


And pillow covers are SO easy to make - about 5 minutes each! Check out this tutorial.
Next I wanted to update our "wall art." Here is before:

And here is after:

I really love the fabric in these frames, but they seem a little drab like something is missing. What can I add?! I would love your advice!

I love that you do so many crafts. I would love to do some of these things, however, if it needs sewing I'm a little sewing handicaped. As for the wall, I think it needs a focal point i each one like a piece of ribbon off-centered vertically. I had even thought a silver or black object placed in it might be kinda fun.

Love the new projects! Your home is so cute and bright. I agree with the earlier comment..maybe a ribbon or something solid colored to bring a focal point.

Um, you can change them back to the way they were before. How dare you destroy our love art.
