Fun With Trailers

On Saturday, Chris and I went to JoAnn’s to pick out fabric to make new curtains and cushion covers for the trailer. We found some that we liked, had samples cut out and brought them home to see what we thought.

They were perfect! Not only were they just the right color but they were a little retro but not TOO retro. And to make them even MORE perfect they were all 50%-60% off. Even the clearance upholstery that we liked was 50% off the clearance price! I ended up saving more than I spent!

The stripe print is for the seat cushions at the dining room table and the leaf print is for the curtains in the kitchen/dining room area

 

They match the bright green floor, the gold stove and the amber glass fridge and cabinets

I am hoping to be able to hang these cute little IKEA pots somewhere, too (they were only $1.99 for both!)

This orange is for the couch/bed and bunk mattresses. The pumpkin-colored print is for the curtains and throw pillows in the living room/bedroom area. I love that the curtain fabric not only looks great with both the carpet and the new upholstery but also kind of matches the curtain fabric in the kitchen/dining room!

 

This placemat (also from IKEA for 29 cents!) was the inspiration for the remodel project. It’s going to become the artwork on the wall just above the couch (see the blank wall space in the above picture)

Now, let the sewing begin!!! Does anybody know how to recover seat cushions???
