Apartment #12 - Diana's Curtains and books and lamp

Hello everyone.
 
Welcome to my blog
and Thank you for the sweet
comments that you give to me.
 
Apartment #12 is coming along nicely.
 
The sewing hooks work really good as shabby chic
curtain holders. I did not paint the dowel so it would
match with the floor.
 
On this picture you can see where I put the kitchen.
The shelf that I had made earlier has been attached
to the wall with tacky wax. I added 4 little doorknobs
to the front. As of yet, it has not crossed my mind what I will
hang on them.
 
The Bay Window is ready to be glued to the
outside wall. I made these 6 books from the idea
that I showed to you. Then I covered them in thin white
linen.
 
I did not like the plastic look of the shade so I covered
it in a small piece of cotton lace. This lace is the
same lace as the long curtains and the valance. 
I took a clear bubble bead and glued it to the
inside of the lamp. It looks like a fat light bulb.
 
The books lend themselves well for the thin
linen fabric. This is just one side. These books are so
soft.
 
I like the look of these books. The pages kind
of looked like they were painted.
 
Thank you so much for visiting me.
Take care!
