Adding A Little French To The Kitchen

Do you remember a few months ago when I purchased this little foot stool at a yard sale?

And I transformed it to this.

Well I can’t leave well enough alone.  It has received  a new make-over!

Karen, at The Graphic Fairy has the most beautiful clip art images and vintage printables that you can download for free.  I was browsing her search category and came across this fabulous Chocolat European advertising piece, with French typography.

I downloaded it to a printable PDF file and printed it on fabric.  For a tutorial on how I use my printer to copy on fabric you can go here.

Thanks Karen, I’m so happy with how it turned out and I love the new Frenchy look!  Now I’m off to see what else I can make using Karen’s graphics.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful weekend.

  2. That's so pretty, Gail! I love the chocolate looking fabric with the creamy ruffle, too! I tried to do printing on fabric, but I must have done something wrong; it wasn't a good outcome. I'll have to look at your tutorial for tips.

  7. Super sweet!... Love what you did with it and that you felt good making over your make over.. I do that so often I suspect it might be some sort of weired DIY virus! :)

  8. I liked it before....but I LOVE it now! I use to be very into dark, rich colors, but now I am leaning toward more neutral...which is not good because now I want to change my whole house!!
