This the way my mom taught me to clean and polish silver when I was growing up.
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!.
This project also only took maybe 20 minutes from start to finish.Big baseboards are really close to my heart and make me feel like all is right in the world, so that was a priority for this room.
The ones we installed ended up being 11.5 inches tall.If you tried to find baseboards like that and buy them by the foot, you’d probably end up spending thousands of dollars, just for one room.
Our solution looks just as good, but costs very little in the end.We started with an 8″ wide MDF board (MDF is great if it will be painted because it’s so nice and straight) and we layered on a really inexpensive 3.5″ molding right on top.
