Blue-Tinted & Netted Vase

Lately, I've really wanted to improve my living room's decor. It has been a slow progress, mainly because I loose focus and move on to a new craft/project that has nothing to do with the living room! But that room is always in the back of my mind.

A couple month's ago friends of Chris and I got married. At the end of the reception we sort of helped them clean up. While in the process, I snagged a large vase that they used to decorate and they didn't want to keep! Such good friends. : )

I knew I wanted the vase to go in our living room but didn't know what to do with it. I know I have pinned a lot of vase-type projects on Pinterest and looking at my Pinterest really inspired me to create a blue-tinted and netted vase! Here is what I did:

Simply Create Thursdays #11

Hey everyone, it's Thursday and Link Party time!

Unfortunately I do not have any features today. Yesterday I was busy preparing the beds in the front of our apartment for plants. If you follow me on Instagram you probably saw this photo I posted yesterday:

Sewing Mondays - Ruffled Table Runner

To help encourage myself to practice sewing as much as I can, I came up with "Sewing Mondays". This will be a chance for me to show you all the tutorials I have tried, my resulting product, and what I thought of the tutorial {I promise all comments will be nice!}. Maybe I will even become proficient enough to post my own tutorials! {Baby steps first, though.} To start out, I'll post a Sewing Mondays post every other week, but if I really get the sewing fever, maybe I'll post every week!

Happy Monday everyone! This week's Sewing Monday tutorial is the Ruffled Table Runner from Sew Much Ado.
