New Room

I'm very excited to (hopefully) add new storage to my Craft Room.  

We're going on a shopping trip and that's top on my list:

Storage Pieces!

All these pretties are really inspiring me.  

...by the way, I HATE the term, 'Craft Room.'

I just don't like the sound of being crafty, so it really needs a 

new name.  

Exciting Stuff

You know when people talk about 'seeing things through a child's eyes?' 

It's so true.  

I LOVE to see Griffin get excited!  

Fake Textures

Lazy woman's way to fake a Texture.  

Somewhat legit, right?  

Pretty

If.

...I can't wait to do A LOT of dancing!

Little Prepster

Monogram Me

I've never been a big fan of monograms,  

they either seemed too preppy or reserved for the under 5 set.  

But, I did REALLY like the towels from the Lonny Bathroom I posted earlier.  

It was a little funky with a touch of prep and it worked.  

...so I tried it out.  

The full bathroom isn't reveal-ready, but the towels surely look cute!

Please ignore the crazy, blue light in the left corner of the pictures. 

Maybe it's an apparition.  

This house was built in 1879, after all. 

Welcome back, Mr. Cannon!   

Still In the Wheat

Field of Dreams

Wheat fields in the Spring.  

Cabinet

This area in my upstairs hallway has been in need of a little love.  I finally added some books to the shelves and updated the paint to dress it up for the day.  

Getting better!

Progress

Here are a few 'Before and During' shots of the Dining Room.  

Again, not yet ready to say, "After."  

Wink.

Becoming A Model

I think Griffin actually likes being my little model.  

Or, at least he's cooperating.

New Chairs

Thanks to last week's Metrolina Expo, I have new chairs in my kitchen.  

After a paint job and new fabric, they're good as new!

Curly Cutie

Before and During

I hate to say 'Before and After' because so many projects are still works in progress.  

So, here's a peek of the Living Room Fireplace Before and During.

C Is For Clearance

I'm very excited about my upcoming, BIG furniture shopping trip, but I'm also trying to spruce up the little areas in the house.  

...cheaply.

Enter a quick trip to HomeGoods and my tiny, downstairs bathroom is looking much better.

Toes

This really makes me ready for summer.  

Flower Fabulous

These were shot in a church yard down the street, 

which makes them the first flower pics not taken in my yard.  

Quite an accomplishment when you consider ALL the flower posts I've done!

Easter Egg-Stravaganza

The Easter egg hunts were a success! 

We have enough candy to last us 'til next year and Griffin had a blast at all the parties.  

Daddy was a great egg-hunt supervisor and MamaK got to wear her Easter bonnet.  

Happy Easter
