Decorating With Your Needlework
Nola Cooper’s ‘The Classic Life Magazine’ has an article titled Why “Decorating Your Space”. She discusses decorating your space whether large or small. Her example is decorating her small powder room. Here’s an idea - if you have a space to decorate, consider using an original needlework piece that you made as the focal point. Choose the color scheme to highlight the colors in your piece. What a better way to make your house your home?

Thanks so much for your mention, Cathy! You know you are exactly right about needlework, and many times we have old pieces that a relative made, that we can pull out and “refresh” by having it cleaned and reframed.
We even had one piece (made by my husband’s great grandmother) framed with a plaque, giving her name and the date it was made.
A great way to decorate AND preserve your heritage!

I totally agree with you - handmade things like this make such a difference in the “warmth” of a home…
