Nursery before pics

Work has begun on nursery prep now that we are 7 weeks from Graustino's due date. I'm hoping things will take shape quickly as I'm starting to lose steam!

And, here's one with my BIG belly for those of you who have been asking.

Organized my freezer

I think it's nesting, but I've organized my freezer with bins from Target.



I've got space for veggies, fruit, and meat.

Looking good!

Loving this kitchen!

The white cabinets look very similar to those at LaNa.  The beadboard is awesome!  And, the aqua painted walls are so fresh.  I'm loving this to brighten up our space...

Updated desk chair

I'm kicking myself that I don't have a before picture of this project.  I swore I had posted one years ago when I first gave it an overhaul for my dining room. 

Oh well, here is the most recent picture of it which we will be using in the office/spare room.  I love how fresh it looks and how amazing it looks in our newly painted room.  More detailed pics to come...

Dresser project

In the past, I blogged about how I would like to re-paint the dresser below.

Dresser after

The hardware and mirror were spray painted to match. 

Also, note the new curtains!  I bought 2 panels at Target, cut them in half, used the no-sew option of hemming them with iron on/fuseable Stitch Witchery, and voila!

Desk redo

I repainted an old desk a few years ago, but never got around to figuring out what to do for the pulls/handles. I liked the old original, but they were falling apart. And, I never found a good alternative.

Before:



It's past time for a quick fix!

After:



I'm loving the simplicity of the twine! It's feeling nautical to me. And, in the spare room/office that we just repainted a Caribbean sea blue (pics to come soon!), it seems fitting.
