New Spaces...





How fun and satisfying it is to rearrange rooms, take furniture from one room to another, see what works, clean up under beds... usually this happens when I get a new idea or something to add, which is what I had.
I wanted to dress up corkboards for the boys to put on their special pictures etc and I wanted one for my office space. Friends told me of this excellent stuff called 'caneite', made of compressed sugar cane mulch. Covered with fabric it looks great. So I visited my local hardware and fabric store and got to work creating these boards. A little bit of stitching to embelish and they were up...as we speak one has fallen down so evidently strong double sided tape doesn't work...oh well get out hammer and nails!
