NEW ROOM FOR DYLAN


Well, sorry it has been a little while but since I have been at work it has been tough to keep up with sewing and creative projects.  I have given my son's room a make over using wall stickers from Pound World, and I'm really pleased with it.  We didn't want to spend a lot as we're moving, but I have to admit, this is the cheapest room revamp I've ever done!


Price break down:
8 x wall sticker packs (£1 each) = £8
Paint from the garage = free (blue, green and white, left over from bathroom and Dylan's room first time around)
Fabric = £4.50 (£2.99 pm used about 1.5 m (for cushion and bunting)
Curtains = £20 (Argos)
3 x canvases (£1.50 each) = £4.50 (Dunelm Mill)
2 x mobiles (£10 each) = £20 (Ebay)


Total = £57


Here is the finished result:

Meant to say, I went for neutral curtains so I can always change the theme later on (I'm thinking a rocket theme!)

Let me know what you think.

Here are some things I've made sew far...

Heart with vintage buttons for friend's house.

An elephant softie for a friend's new baby (I called this one Ellie, unimaginative I know, but it was my first one!).

Cushion cover for Dylan's room (I also made bunting to match this with the leftovers from hemming his curtains).

Quilt cover for Dylan's cot bed.

Another cushion cover for Dylan's room (this is mostly an old navy blue t-shirt of Mick's!)

Memory heart for a friend (using some of her late dad's vintage buttons).

Toy horse for friend's new baby (Henry the horse).

Another horse, called Horace this time!

Another elephant, this one is called Edward.

This was a little project where I embroidered and embellished Dylan's Xmas stocking - a nice evening project.

I hope you like what I've done so far.
