I cant tell you how many times I have heard the words " You are such a Martha Stewart" (haha) I just love crafting, diy, painting, sewing, and home decorating. It gives me great satisfaction to look around my house and say " I MADE THAT!"

Modern Vintage Art Redo

  I just finished this project yesterday, and I was too excited about it to wait until next week to post it! I loved Abby's Modern Vintage Art , but I wanted to add some of the teal color into it. At first I was just going to change the bow in the little girls hair to a teal one, but slowly I ended up change everything. (Isn't that how most projects turn out). Well you know me, enough chit chat and on to the pictures ;)


  I LOVE the soft airy feel going on in her room now!


Here are some closeups of each piece!!!
   I added the same trim I used on the Ric Rac Cuff Sheets over the black velvet. I think it looks like a completely different frame with the teal finish on it!


  For the Little Girl, I changed out the background to one that matches her Photo Art Blocks. The color is a little darker in this picture than in real life.


  For the Little Boy's picture I changed out paper to again match the Photo Art Blocks. Then added a pink bow tie!


   I LOVE the way these turned out!!! From the teal distressed frame to the real metal keys and locks ! Much better than the before paper version!


  This cute hair bow holder I made yesterday to go in the middle, it fills the space so much better than the smaller frame. I hot glued the ric rac on the inner grove of the frame, then added the lace across the back.

  Here is a close up of the fabric flowers I added to the bottom corner! :) They make me happy, and Abby too. She keeping going in her room and saying ooooh pretty flowers. :D


    One last picture of that side of the room! It is finally coming together.

  Oh I forgot I haven't done a post about her closet makeover ;) Well that is coming soon my friend.
I have a few more projects I want to tackle still.
- new curtains
- old mantle shelf with knobs
- lace bunting

  I am so excited to see how it all comes together! :) Tell me what do you think? Do you LOVE the pink and teal together as much as I do?


Thanks for stopping by,

Squared Away

I wanted to share with you my laundry room Before and After!

Here is the before (with her dirty paint, yellow molding, and poorly assembled metal shelving)

Photobucket

First thing I did was replace the floor to match the kitchen, and paint the walls a little darker blue than the main part of the house. Next thing I wanted was a statement wall! So I got some decorative molding, added two picture frames, and a chair rail.

Photobucket

I used paintable wallpaper on the inside of the squares and gave it a faux finish. I added a darker contrasting color around the framed area to really make it POP!

I painted and distressed a ugly yellow pine shelf and filled it with Goodwill finds! The Silver box is my favorite! :) It is a great place to store lost buttons. It makes me smile every time I go in there to do a load of laundry, which is way to often! LOL

Photobucket

I have so many projects to share!!! I could stay up all night typing! haha BUT my babies would not be very happy with me if I did that, so you will just have to wait until tomorrow. Good Night!

Thanks for stopping by
