Day Two of our front room reveal! (I feel like I'm writing a script for a makeover show when I type that sentence.)
A while back I showed you a bench for my bathroom that I cobbled together with my monogram sewn on the top. I found a local woman who does monogramming out of her home, and this little project below was another one that she did for me. It's an inexpensive white table runner that I got from Pottery Barn on clearance years ago. I thought it would benefit from a little embellishment (but really, what doesn't?).
Doesn't hurt that adding the monogram was only $12. I love it!
Very pretty! I love the classic look of something monogrammed....and it certainly jazzes up a plain table runner!!
ReplyDeleteOne day closer to the big reveal...the suspense is killing me!
Wow...love it...very classy. I just ordered a bunch of stuff from Monogrammed Chick...I think a monogrammed gift shows you put some thought into it! I sure love anything like that!!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea on a runner...never thought of that!

ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the room reveal!
(Are you secretly still adding touches and working on it and using the piece-by-piece reveal to buy time?! Ha ha! Maybe that reveals too much about how my mind works!!!!!
I think it's about time I start incorporating some monograms
ReplyDeleteLove the monogram. I'm anxious to see your room.
ReplyDeleteI have been absent and I have missed many great ideas! I love the monogram idea. I think that it looks so regal. I love the idea as a table runner. This would make such a fun gift. (i am sure that you aleady knew this, you are the queen of gifts)
ReplyDeleteI am a lover of lamps. Soft lighting in general. I have very little counter space in my bathroom, although I have always wanted a lamp. What a great idea!! I want some.
When you covered the larger lampshade, are there any tricks?
You know how much I LOVE monograms! Can't wait to see the rest of the room.
ReplyDeleteJo

ReplyDeleteI love crisp white runners like that - so pretty! :)
ReplyDeleteSo pretty, I would love to find someone nearby who did that. My friends mom has ALL her towels done with a gold "C" on their white towels. It's so simple but I think it makes their simple bathrooms look gorgeous.
