Alrighty then, so are you ready to find out what I used those adorable, turquoise, faux reptile print buttons for?
A tufted headboard! Ta-da!
An ebay fabric purchase, a trip to Joanne's Fabrics and Home Depot along with Mr. Fitness's math genius and *voila* our new headboard! I just love it to pieces.
Here is Mr. Fitness helping with the fabric:
Pre-tufting:
And after:
Yippee. It's the perfect thickness to lean against as well.
So, now I only have a few more things to do to our bedroom before it will be finished.
When Liz and I were in Orlando on Friday (which I will be posting pics soon) we had a fun, mad 20-minute dash in IKEA and I found the PERFECT, most adorable, DID I SAY PERFECT fabric for curtains.
See..............isn't it PERFECT. Actually the picture doesn't do it justice. However, they are sold out so I will have to go back in 3-4 weeks, which is good that way I can actually measure to figure out exactly how much I need.
Then, I think I want to purchase some of these wall-mounted candle holders from CB2 to put in a horizontal row above the headboard:

AND THEN, I plan to add this throw once I'm finished crocheting it (mine's in a heather gray color). I'm probably .00000025 of the way finished. Hmmm.
