Homecoming!

...So, I said to Lauren...

KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK

Who could that be?

Hiya sis!

Viola Grace! What are you doing here?

I came to stay for the summer!

I'm 21 now and I'm ready to stretch my wings a little!

Wait, let's sit down.

You know I'd love to have you here Vi,

but Amanda and I are already sharing the townhouse.

What about your attic space?

Oh, Vi, it's such a mess and full of junk!

Let me see it please?

Well, here it is.  Don't say I didn't warn you.

Hmmm....Interesting rug, lots of fabric.

Yes, I think I can make this work.

Let's see...I have lots of this fabric.

I think I can make it work with this quilt.

This rug is not too bad actually. I kind of like it.

This frame needs a little color.

This yellow will brighten this dresser up.

Almost finished...

WHEW! Finished!

Vi! I can not believe what you did!

This is adorable!

So, can I stay?

Of course you can!

I love my attic room and

the view is great!

More about the Attic Room

I made this room in a wine box I got from a friend.

This little dresser came from a thrift store.

The decorative piece on the back WAS on

the front.  I prised it off and re-glued 

it in back where it belonged!

You can see the dark line where it used to be.

So I added some yellow paint to cover

the black mark and add some interest.

This little mattress and quilt were my starting idea for

a little bed.

I made a bed platform from a cardboard box

with fabric glued onto it.

And here is the quilt on the bed!

Finished Doll Quilts

I am always on the lookout for

miniature frames.

The frame in Vi's room

was a chain trio. I removed

the bottom frame and reattached

the chains into a hanger.

This little lamp I made from a

small bottle.

I made a shade from craft paper,

hot-glued it and added the ric-rac.

I made a "Y" out of wire and glued it

to the shade and into the bottle.

I hope you enjoyed this little room creation!

AND

Welcome home Viola Grace!
