Multi-colored lights and mis-matched ornaments aren’t the end of the world, but really I should have a second tree (or a third or a fourth) that’s all done up “properly”..
I probably should have not used white thread.If I was thinking, I would have found a matching green, but I really didn’t think it would work out, so it didn’t matter anyway.
It looks pretty great actually..So here’s where I’m at for Kennedy’s “pillowscape” so far.Is that a thing?
Anyway, she wants a horse pillow too, then I think that will be it.. What do all you real sewers think out there?Did I do OK for a first ruffle attempt?Thursday, 6:26 p.m..

I really love those round rattan place mats that everyone has, but I sometimes have pretty large groups for dinner, so I would want to get about 10 or 12.It really is so close to the real PBK green.. We painted it up (and had some snacks too, apparently) in no time flat.. We used a few different fun patterns of scrapbook paper in the slots where the photos are supposed to go..
