Not only do I need a major decluttering but we also need to do a complete paintover throughout the house, not my favourite job at all.

When I had difficulty ironing a silk shirt, someone suggested that I spray it with water from a spray bottle then put it into the freezer for about 3 to 5 mins, then take out and iron immeadiately and believe it or not it works wonders. I’ve often wondered if it would work with other difficult to iron fabrics.

Worth giving it a try.

Take Care
Lots of Love Carolynn

I love those! You added just the right amount of design and color, so they look customized without the Mickeys being overwhelming. Way to go!

And I hope you had a good time at Cedar Point.

Very nice! At first I thought the Mickeys were stitched onto the fabric. Nice dimension. Very ambitious.

What a great idea!! Love them. Yes you are creative…. and frugal as well! Did I see a Minnie there with a bow in her hair? Or am I seeing things? Bet you had fun re-vamping those curtains as well!!

Love them! Would they be more visible if you filled them in with the fabric paint?
And you’re not going on the rides? Hmmmm…gonna hafta work on that. I managed to get Tom on Tower of Terror and have the pictures to prove it!

You are so talented! One of our next tasks is to get rid of the ’70s look of our bathrooms, too. Fun, fun!

Way to use what you have! I think it turned out pretty cute. If you had a Mickey cookie cutter you could have dipped that into the paint and then stamped it onto the curtains.

Those are adorable! Great job! Wish we could join you at Cedar Point for the day. At least you’d have someone to hang with while not on the rides with your family.

Those are too cute!

Enjoy your day at the Point. I’m jealous!! You know, we could always switch places when it comes to the days you’re being held against your will!

Very cute idea!!
I need to strip 80’s wallpaper out of 3 bathrooms and a bedroom. Yucko!
I did LLB’s room and the dining room last summer. I’m not doing any of it this summer… Too busy!
Maybe when the kids go back to school…
