Shabby Chic Banner

Look at what is hanging in my barn rafters.

The other day our poor old bed sheets ripped

 and had to be replaced.

This was the second rip, the first time I mended them.

That's what you do when you believe in

Repurpose-Reuse-Recycle-Refinish-Restore.  

In this case it finally got to the point to Replace.

So, I purchase new sheets and threw the old ones in the bedroom wastebasket.

Then the next day I took them back out and washed them.

What was I thinking!

I have seen so many gorgeous shabby chic items that I loved, 
that were made from old torn white fabric.

I had gold here and I almost threw it out.
That's like throwing out the baby with the bathwater. 

Now the rafters of my Art Barn 

are adorned with these pretty torn up old sheets.

And I love them :)

The hearts that I added to the banner

were some that I had stored in a shoe box.

They were unsold and left from a craft sale that I did a couple years ago.

Well, that's what I have been up to . . .
What are you doing today?

Have a wonderful day.

Smile, Laugh and have a little Fun.
