Happy Spring!

 

Hello friends! I hope you are enjoying your spring so far. It's nice to see the brown winter grass turn green again and see my beautiful roses bloom.

Spring18

Even my pups are loving the fresh spring air!

 

Spring20

 

Springtime always seems to reinspire me as it does for the most of us.

With that, I've decided to tackle some new projects while still planning my upcoming Oct event, and moving into my new studio.

I've been itching to change my entire kitchen paint and decor for ages. 

So a few weeks ago I my kitchen went from yellow with an old bunny border to soft creamy white walls.

WOW! What a difference!

 

Spring5

So fresh and clean looking.

Spring4

Can you believe the name of the paint is Mayonnaise. So apropos!

 

Spring3

I also decided it was time to take all the decor off the walls and shelves and start all over again.

 

What you see now is the BEFORE photos. My AFTER photos will be in the next post.

My children's sippy cups crammed in the cabinet shelves also got cleaned out and put away nicely.

Unused glasses got wrapped up and will be dontated.

Spring11

Several pieces I no longer want will be available for sale.

This chandelier will be listed on ebay next week.

 

My husband can't understand why I wan't to tackle so many projects at once.

Does he not get that I can MULTITASK???

Im sure Im not alone with this one. My husband does not multitask well, so he get's frustrated when trying to understand why I want to take on so much.

 

I want a pretty kitchen NOW….not later.  :)

He's a sweetie and pitched in to help. 

Here's an action shot of him getting ready to hang a chandelier up for me.

Spring16

 

Over the weekend I purchased several old furniture pieces dirt cheap! 

All they need is some TLC and will be new again to display in my kitchen and studio.

 

Spring14

 

I spent most of my weekend painting and distressing furniture.

This photo inspired me to paint my green hutch into the same soft blue shade.
