Upstairs Bedroom Project!!!


This picture makes it look more green...

Okay so I have a bunch of little (and some large) projects going on. I think I may actually be nearing the finish line for one though. We painted our upstairs spare bedroom a nice tanish color. It was pink and green stripes and polka dots. I like pink but this was a little much. So it's gone now (except the closet......). But I updated a headboard that I already had. My friend Kris and I went to the fabric store and bought some backing and then some fabric and then she and I stapled the backing around the head board.  Then the hubs and I did the fabric. It's AMAZING. I also just went and bought a new comforter set. I'm going with an outdoorsy theme.


I need to get more pillows so I can use the
other shams and make this look nicer.

I made this headboard!
Next with the room is CURTAINS! Why am I excited about curtains.... I need to measure the windows and such first but last night I had to bowl instead. First game was 123, second game113, and then I didn't buy a 3rd beer so for the last game all I got was 94.
I think this lamp would look cool in the room


Peace out,

Here gos

Well, with so much going on in our neck of the woods I thought I'd start my own blog about it. Hopefully it will be a nice way for the hubs to see all the normal things I'm going to be doing since he's out "working."




Quick bio:
I'm 30 years old, married for 2 years, originally from Iowa and now living in Indiana. No, it's not the same.

The hubs:
34 years old, also originally from Iowa. A sweet new job for him is why we moved to Indiana.



Critters:
Charlie (female Hungarian Vizsla), 4 years old. A big Velcro dog!!
Lucy (female half Chihuahua and half rat terrier), 2 years old. If she asks though, she's a Vizsla
Belle (female cat) 5 months old, thinks she runs the house
Various fish that for whatever reason I obsess over also
