I can’t wait to share the whole experience with you!
Then I sewed those seams in place.. Next, I became reunited with my old friend the glue gun.It was a glorious day!.
I was going to use velcro strips for this step, but I didn’t have any on hand the day when the inspiration to work on this project struck, so I just went for the glue gun.I’m so glad I did!Realistically, I know I’ll probably replace this bedskirt before I actually take it out and throw it in the laundry, so glue was the way to go!.
I took some wide strips of some scrap drop cloth that I had laying around and glued those to the bottom of the bed to act as the secret “base” to the bed skirt.. At this point, I realized that I probably could have just stuck some wide strips of a nice patterned fabric on there and that would have been good enough for a bed skirt, but it was too late!I was in too deep!.
I also realized that I didn’t have the heart to disturb the kitty’s nap to make the bed for this picture, so I didn’t.
I had originally wanted to make this a ruffly bed skirt.That way you use way less paint and you don’t have a whole big brush to clean afterwards.
Just a quick rinse (or a toss in the trash) and you’re done!.So after that little 2-minute step was done, I went ahead and added the aqua.. Then it was time to peel back the tape!.
The results were nothing short of thrilling.. Now that is one perfect paint line!.Here’s how the whole desk area looked when I was done..
