Project Update & Free Supplies

I finally finished

this little stool

. I am in a garage organizing mode, and I was not going to trip over this thing one more time. How's that for motivation. Since it isn't mine, I made an 

upholstered

top in a style that would suit my friend. 

I used a remnant piece of tapestry that I knew my friend would love.

I trimmed the side with a piece of leather braiding that I found at the

NY Flea Market

. 

I finished it with antique gold

nailheads

 for extra interest.

Now that this project is over, I have decided to clean out some of my supplies...

.

and you can have them, if you want. This stool used 33

nailheads

, so I made packages of 40. I also have too many cord cleats and plastic rings for roman shades. And about 500 drapery hooks. 

If you would like any of the supplies, just leave a comment...

.

first come, first served basis (one bag of

nailheads

 per person). Please make sure I have your email address. This is for the US and Canada, only.

I'll be pinning the stool to my

Project Procrastination Board

...leave your

Pinterest

ID if you want to be a

pinner

Enjoy the last full weekend of August...wow, did I just type that :(

Let's Do It!

Project Procrastination.....Finish the Unfinished
This idea was inspired by my friend Janet @ House Four.  I was laughing so hard when I read her post The Land of Unfinished Projects. I saw myself and it wasn't pretty. 
Together, she and I have decided to try and knock off an unfinished project per month. It is not our intention to include new things...that's just everyday blogging. We are after the dated, I'm so sick of looking at you, I wish I never started you....projects. 
Something like this one

A latch hook kit that my daughter got at camp one summer....3 years ago. The camp was so expensive, that I figured this puppy is worth a couple hundred dollars, if you get my drift. She refuses to finish it, and I think it would make a fun pillow for the basement.

It could go with this one. 

The latch hook "Fathers Day" kit I finished for her about 2 years ago. It needs to be made into a pillow.

How about this one

A needlepoint I started more than 10 years ago. 

Speaking of needlepoint, I never did anything with these

The 6 needlepoint's I bought on Ebay and told you about here.

How about this

A round loom cowl that you wear in the winter

All I have to do is figure out how to get it off the loom. I should have bought one on Etsy, like this one

Available on Etsy

But wait...there's so much more. This is my hall closet. My talent-less builder obviously could not figure out how to hang a bar. 

See the problem

I don't know what that yellow shadow is? The closet is white. 
The hanger won't fit without it being tilted, and then your coat falls off the hangar.
Furniture? Glad you asked...I have a pair of these

Faux bamboo tables just waiting for the right color of paint.

Maybe red like these?

Etsy Seller

I also have a pair of these vintage Asian tables

I love the old mirror. They just need to be painted.

Trust me, I could go on. 

Here is the plan. I started a Pinterest board titled Project Procrastination...Finish the Unfinished. I will add anyone as a pinner who wants to join. Janet is already on board. 

Work at your own pace. Once you have a blog post to pin from...go ahead. I don't care what kind of blogger your are, and I don't care what type of project you have been procrastinating. 

NO JUDGEMENT...only support, and hopefully a laugh or two.

My personal goal is 1 project per month.

Who's with me?
