How to Upholster a Settee

June 21, 2013 Susan @ Uniquely Yours or Mine

Ok… so the story starts off like this… I took an upholstery class last semester and reupholstered this fabulous chair seen here. I decided I

Just a little slots fun at @the_greenbrier resort. Not for me so much, but these were some cool looking machines! . . . . . #thegreenbrier #casinonight #slots #agameoftones #vacation #gamblingisnotmything #vacation #casino #vintage

So I needed (read wanted) more indoor plants and I've been looking for a unique, local place to shop for a while when I read about @plantbarvb ... they didn't disappoint! I think it's the only store of its kind in the area and I for one am happy they're here! I got lots of help choosing my plants and when you buy a pot they transplant your plant into it too! Such a cute make your own terrarium station as well... . . . . . #buylocal #shopsmall #supportsmallbusiness #shopvabeach #visitvabeach #vibedistrict #plantlady #iloveplants #houseplants #realplants #liveplants #vabeach #cutestore #diyterrarium #iwantalltheplants

What do you do on a cold, rainy day? We played around while it was nice yesterday, so today was a work on the cabinets in the laundry room day. We're getting so close to finishing, still have two sliding doors to make and then to prime and paint everything, I can't wait! . . . . . #diy #home #diyhomerenovation #howihome #laundryroom #laundryroommakeover #cabinets #woodworking #makeit #custom #homedesign #design #makeitmine #interiordesign

Ahh, the new laundry room door has been installed & painted, one more item checked off of the list! The obscure glass allows the light from the window to filter beautifully into the kitchen, but you only have a hint of what's behind the door. An added bonus of the new door is that it is solid and does a great job minimizing laundry noise. . . . . . #laundryroom #remodeling #obscureglass #diy #housetohome #homeupdates #newdoor #glassdoor #frenchdoor #interiordesign #interiors #howidiy #home

Hiking and waterfalls for Christmas is my kind of vacation! We decided to spend Christmas week in Asheville, NC this year, with our 3 girls and son-in-law, so much fun and without the usual gift giving stress. This is Hickory Nut Falls, at 404 ft. it is the second highest east of the Mississippi and well worth the easy trek to view. . . . . . #christmashike #chasingwaterfalls #familyhike #ncwaterfalls #waterfall #hickorynutfalls #visitnc #ncmountains #mountainlife #landscapephotography #hiking #hikeditlikedit #chimneyrock

We're getting closer to being done renovating the laundry room! The sink, faucet and drying rack installed...still need to make and install cabinets for the other side of the room, but that will be an after Christmas project for sure! Installing an undermount sink in the butcherblock countertop was more difficult than I anticipated, but it was all worth it! . . . . . #diy #laundryroom #homedesign #homeremodel #dryingrack #butcherblockcountertop #interiordesign #housebeautiful #undermountsink

Sometimes a Bloody Mary is what is called for... no it's not Sunday or brunch but it's perfect! . . . . . #5oclocksomewhere #bloodymary #whatsforlunch #yum #justdoit #vabeach #757collective #757 #visitvirginiabeach

I know it's getting close to Christmas when I have to hang this note on the door to implore UPS & FedEx not to ring the doorbell everytime they deliver a package! I love my dogs, but they go batshit crazy when someone rings the bell 🙄 #dontringthebell #douchbagdogs #bellcrazydogs #almostxmas #fedup #ups #fedex #doorbellsign #weim #weimwednesday #weimsofinstagram #notfunny #notevenremotelycute #note #bahhumbug

I can't help but pick up flowers every.single.time I go to Trader Joe's... I also got a big ass Turkey too but that's not as pretty! . . . . . #flowerpower #flowers #flowerporn #traderjoes #traderjoesflowers #amateurphotography #757photographer #flowersofinstagram #flowersinthekitchen

We're grouting the penny tile we just installed as a full height backsplash in our laundry room. Not only am I super happy with the tile but the price at $3.99/sq. ft. was great too! I do hate grouting though, it's not hard just messy and you have to move pretty quickly so the grout doesn't dry out or make smaller batches. . . . . . #housetohome #diy #tile #backsplashfordays #pennytile #shiplap #laundryroom #renovation #tilework #grout #shadesofgrey #fullheightbacksplash
