Totally Tute-ular Tuesday-Design Board

Ok, I'm certainly not saying that I'm qualified

to do a tutorial on making a design board.

However, I am saying that I made a

design board and this is how I did it!

I have company coming and decided

the guest room is in need of some

refreshment. My inspiration piece is the

April Cornell throw shown here...

and here.

I'm planning to pull the greens, yellows and

blues of the throw into the room with

projects and accessories.

I chose 2 decorative papers

that contain the same 3 colors

to do a craft project for the room.

I like to mix patterns, if you

stay within the same 3 colors but vary the

size and intensity of the pattern choices

you can usually achieve harmony rather

than a clash. In the end though, beauty is in the

eye of the beholder so use your own judgement.

I'll be carrying this piece of ribbon with me to

color match the paint and accessories.

I'm also going to incorporate these old curtains

into the room via a sewing project.

This is it, the design board I've put together for the room.

I have some pieces in place, the walls

are apple green and the bedding is

reversible from yellow to green.

There are also other elements in the room

that will stay, but I have a full list of

"to-do's"  before company arrives.

I hope you'll follow along on my project posts 

leading to the final reveal!
