Monday at My Home

The baby nursery thus far...

I am in LOVE with this ottoman I found at Target from their new Calypso line! I am thinking it will be a great stool for Evie and for Mama's feet.

Richard painted the room, and I painted the curtians and round mirror. I also sewed the pennant but I am not sure if it will stay up or not.

So worth it

Yesterday was a whirlwind! No joke I spent probably 6 hours on my hands and knees working on these chevron curtains! I just kept thinking about the day when I can bring baby boy home to this cute room with the curtains I made for him! I am really proud of myself too, becuase I usually have my husband or one of my brothers help me with the math and measuring and what not but everyone was busy. So I did it ALL by myself. As I tell Evie "Your such a big girl"!

To tell you the truth I am not sure how I did it. There was a whole lot of measuring and connecting the dots I marked with tape. And then I used regular paint (which most would use fabric paint, I just didn't want to buy anymore paint and I wanted it to match the mirror I painted for the room) and used the "blotting technique" with a paint brush.

I feel really bad I can't give you better directions! It was so chaotic with watching my sweet babe and nephew at my Moms house. And to top it off the paint leaked through to my Mom's floor! Yikes! I just wiped it down with fingernail polish and it came right off. Thanks Mom for letting me do my crazy projects at your house!

Craving a punch of yellow

This dresser is making me crave yellow. Some pregnant ladies may crave pickles but I crave color!
Isn't this room lovely?

Monday at My Home

Yay! Badda boom badda bing, another project checked off my list! We transformed my old pet project black bathroom into my new pet project wallpaper bathroom. This time a round it turned out much much better. My husband and I soon discovered after starting with the wallpaper, that wallpaper is pure evil! It is so so hard to put up! People say how it is so much easier than it used to be, if this is easier than why in the world did people wallpaper their whole houses back in the day? We were so overwhelmed we decided to just wallpaper two of the walls instead of the whole thing. I painted the whole bathroom a gray that matched the darker shade of gray of the wallpaper. I think it turned out pretty great!
