Yes...school...is...out! Which means I will be finding all kinds of ways to keep myself busy! I am the project queen over summer. As my grandmother says, I inherited the "crafty gene", which generally means I start a whole bunch of projects and get some of them finished. One particular project that I began, drum roll please, two summers ago, I am bound and determined to finish this summer. I decided to try my hand at some quilting and my grandmother has been very helpful in this whole adventure and she's told me that if I can just finish putting it together, she'll do the quilting for me. So here it is...you'll have to have a little imagination. I only have one row to finish and then I can put the top together.
I have also been playing with my mantel since my last post and I wanted to post some before and after shots.
It still doesn't feel just right to me, but I definitely like it a lot better.
I recently had a friend visit who definitely went above and beyond! She helped me paint my bathroom! I hope that this summer I can replace the lighting fixture and make all the old gold light switches white. Take a look:
We'll see! I have a lot to do in a little time, but it's good to have goals, right?
Love the new bathroom color. I need to come to your place soon. Maybe a (half) day trip with the girls. What could we do that's fun in Duluth? Shorty Howell? =)
