One more project for my laundry room is done!
First I made this curtain.
Then came my cabinets and blue chandelier.
Now comes my newest project.
We started with a counter top from Ikea with some skinny legs.
Then using the same technique as I did with the no sew curtains. I made a no sew table skirt!
Ta Da!
This was such an easy project.
All I needed was a staple gun, glue gun, and no sew iron on tape.
Now I have a lot of storage space to store some cute kids that I found wondering around.
I think I will keep him.
Right now it is a favorite spot for hide and seek, but eventually it will hold a lot of storage!
Look at all my space to sort and fold laundry!!!
But now what will I use my dining room table for?
Again, here is the before.
And the after.
To all my praying readers out there. I have a little prayer request.
Tomorrow me, my mom and the boys are driving 10 hours in the car to TN.
Yes, we are crazy. I have stocked up on lots of the dollar items from Target, got our snacks ready, movies ready, and our ear plugs ready. Unfortunately Benadryl doesn't work on Wild Man. I am not above drugging my children to keep my sanity, but since it only makes him even more wilder. It isn't an option.
So we are really praying for an uneventful trip. You know where no one gets killed or I do not get horse from yelling at my boys to be quiet.
Hope you all have a great rest of the weekend and a safe 4th of July!
The table looks amazing! I wish my laundry room was big enough for something like that! And I will keep you in my prayers, you are one brave woman! Have a safe trip!
ReplyDeleteOoooo Love it!! Looks fabulous! I really like your fabric selection too!!
ReplyDeleteYay for ya'll coming into town!!! Good luck on the drive in. If ya'll aren't too busy while intown we should all try to get together. BTW, I love all of your craft projects! I need to get you to show me how to do the no sew stuff!

The table is fun! Be thankful that you haven't had to travel with them alone yet! 4 hands are much better than 2 :)

ReplyDeleteI love the table skirt. I want a folding table!!!! Have a safe trip.
ReplyDeleteI'm envious of your folding table! Have a safe trip. Come Labor Day, my family will also be driving the 10 hours or so TN to visit my sister. I feel your pain!
ReplyDeletejust stumbled across your blog, and i am so glad tat i did! i love how you dressed up your laundry room...i'm going to tuck these pics away for when i get to that task on my to-do list!

Wowzers...I love the new look in your laundry room. What a great idea! To dress up a room that could (and mine normally is) be a complete disaster...love it!

So Cute! If my laundry room was that cute I would love doing the laundry. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI loved the treatment on the windows & it's just as cute on the table (plus the little cutie you're storing under the table is sweet!)- you've created such a fun laundry room!!
ReplyDeleteOf COURSE a laundry room has to have a chandelier.
ReplyDeleteLove that there is absolutely no sewing involved. The room looks fab!
Have a safe trip.

I love that so much effort & time has gone into your laundry room. It is so cute. I wish you could come to TX and tell me what to do in my house. Mine needs a complete overhaul. You are such a good decorator and from the pics of your mom's house I can see you get it from her. I get my lack of decorating from my mom too! My house is just a mish moshed mess of stuff. And most of the time it's covered in toys, blankets, and books.
ReplyDeleteOh so cute! I love that you tied the folding table in with the curtain. Really cute. I would think it would make laundry more fun. :) And the chandelier of course - it all looks great together.
ReplyDeleteWow, this is beautiful--love the colors--fantastic!!!
ReplyDeleteAmazing!!!
I am praying for a safe trip for you.
Hugs,
Cindy
WOW!!! That looks great!!!! I have been wanting to do that to my sewing table!!!! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteAmazing what a difference it makes! Great work! Hope the ride went well!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I love the fabric!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful job! I love doing table skirts like these because all I really need is the staple gun and staples. Love the fabric and the band and buttons you added.
ReplyDeleteI just moved a table to my laundry area and I would love to do the same with mine! Guess that means I better start fabric shopping! (Hope you do a tutorial!)
ReplyDeleteSuch a great idea. I love the fabric.

I'm in love with this fabric! Praying for safe travels on your way to TN. I'm just south of Nashville. Maybe you could come by and we could do this project together!
ReplyDeleteI love the print and I love the color, it looks great! Thanks for linking up to Sister Sister Sunday! Come back this week!
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Amanda
That would almost make me want to do laundry! Thank goodness that's my husband's job. But the space is very bright, organized and cheerful, and the child is positively edible.
ReplyDeleteGood luck in the car. You're like Joan of Arc brave.
Well, that's just plain adorable! You used some great fabric there, and the little green tabs add just the right amount of "pow"!
ReplyDeleteThis turned out lovely! I am in the process of making a couple of skirts for various pieces. This is so simple I must use it in the craft room. Perhaps the project will actually get done if it's easier than lugging out the sewing machine. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great laundry room! I love the fabric you chose. Great job.
ReplyDeleteHave a safe trip!
It looks great! This is going to be such a fun room!
ReplyDeleteLove the fabric! Totally cool room. The little boy is pretty adorable too! All in all, a great job.
ReplyDeleteBe sure to check my favs post, it will be up in about 10 min and you are being featured.

I love this fresh color combination. Great job!

Very clever! I love the idea of adding a skirt for hidden storage.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up to Fab Friday -
Cheers!
I'm such an "innie" that this rocks my socks.
ReplyDeleteI giggled at the little fellow peeking out. My girls would have tried to stake a claim in Fort Land with that table.
awesome!! so pretty. love the patterns and colors!
ReplyDeleteAll of the amazing details in your laundry room make me want to pretty mine up. Love this idea.
ReplyDeleteThat looks fabulous! I love the fabric you chose. What a great use of space. And a fun hide and seek spot!
ReplyDeleteI love the fabric you used. So pretty!
ReplyDeleteLove all the little details that you put in to the room that add up to me being just a tad jealous. But I can praise the Lord from my laundry closet... so I will just be happy for you and your gorgeous room!!! Jules
ReplyDeleteYour room looks great! Love the fabric on the table.

I'm drooling over all that folding/laundry space. The colors are fun, yet it's wonderfully functional. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGod's blessings,
Sarah :D
really cute skirt - can you tell me how you attached it to the top. I have a desk I would like to do something similar to but not sure how to put it together?
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Well the technique I used will not be helpful in what you are wanting to do. After making the legs I put 1x4 going across attaching to the legs. I attached the fabric to those pieces of wood and then I put the counter top on top. Sorry. Maybe if some how you can attach the fabric to a piece of wood that is small and then attached the wood under the desk.Good Luck!
