How many times...


Materials: Britten Nummer fabric

Description: Buy 1,2mts of Britten Nummer fabric.

Soak it in tea for, about, 4 hours, this will give it an old-vintage touch. Drain and let it dry. Iron and starch the fabric.

Prepare a framework with 4 of 1mt wooden strips, joining them with wooden glue and some metal brackets.
Tense the fabric on the framework and fix it using enough staples.

Hang it and.... count.

  1. ¿Cuánto té has usado para teñir la tela? Había oído hablar de esta técnica, pero me sigue pareciendo aún un misterio.
    Te has montado un cuadro de categoría. No me suena haber visto esa tela la última vez que estuve en Ikea.

    1. La tela la compré el año pasado, pero yo diría que todavía la tienen. Y de té... No los sé, pero creo que infusioné durante bastante rato, en 2 litros de agua, unas 4 cucharadas soperas de té, después colé la infusión y sumergí en ella la tela. Y... et voilà! Más fácil imposible.

  7. Que les parece agregar cortinas o almohadones con la misma tela, quedara muy cargado? What about adding curtains or pillows of the same fabric, would it be too much?

  8. I feel the center of attraction in this room is the chandelier and not your hack:)

    ¿Te acuerdas dónde has comprado la lámpara? Es una pasada!

    1. Hay una lampara igual o muy parecida en el leroy merlin me refiero a la del techo

    2. Gracias. La voy a mirar. Sí, es la del techo porque, en el medio del hack, resalta mucho:). Es lo que da tener buen gusto ;).

      Thank you. I'll take a look. On your hack, one of the things that catches the eye is the chandelier - that's what happens when you have good taste ;).
