I thought not.. Here’s what I have going on for this year!.

You can see we still have tape measures and tools laying around in here, but it’s getting there!.I wanted some simple baseball silhouettes so I just did a search for “free baseball silhouettes” or something like that.

Then I used my favorite.wax paper method for transferring a printed image onto fabric.Transferring onto burlap rather than the thin white cotton that I used before was a bit more challenging, so I basically had to scratch the image on with my fingernail to get the ink dark enough.

It worked though!Then I darkened it up a bit more with a Sharpie.. Then I just placed the fabric in the hoops and trimmed the excess!.

The total cost for these two pieces was about $5 for the.

Everything else was stuff that I had on hand!.For example, the built-in book cases, which are made mostly from MDF, are trimmed out with basic 1/2″ strips of pine all around the front of the shelves for a more solid and up-to-date look.

Very inexpensive, but without that extra bit of trim, they would look cheap and flimsy, no matter how sturdy they are..Adding an extra little bit of really thin (and super cheap) crown molding at the tops really finishes them off and makes all the difference.. On a side note, if you’re wondering what’s up with the lighting in the room, we were having yet another overcast day when I found the time to snap these photos so I had the overhead lights on.

Aren’t they fun though?.Back to the trim..
