today ~

is giveaway time!!

oh yeah!

happy dance!!

but first,

i would like to share this weeks creative project

"cloud nine"

(geesh! there's always a catch somewhere!)

weeks ago,

i came across a lovely blog called ~ Dear Lillie ~

and immediately fell in love with her ~ "silent night, holy night" ~ pillows

the problem was

the color of the pillows and their script

 wasn't what i had in mind for my "holiday theme" this year 

i was going for more of a snow covered cottage feel

but i adored the concept of the throw pillows and the frilly, scroll script

so ~ i set off to find an alternative...

and to what should my wandering eyes appear??!

why,

fabulous frilly text
 that i found right
~ HERE ~!

~ silent night text ~

~ holy night text ~

THRILLED with my success,

i then designed two pillows of my very own to put them on.

i used a cotton/linen sheet that had a fabulous crochet lace detail

that i incorporated into these covers

i made my throw pillows, envelope style, a very simple cover to make...

in WHITE!!!

love it!!

they are exactly what i had envisioned for our family room this holiday season

and yes, they're washable!!

(hey, just because i live with white covers

doesn't mean i deny myself hot mocha's!!) 

now ~

 my "silent night ~ holy night" theme

is echoed throughout the room

and i am on cloud nine...

~ sigh ~
