Me? Too many to count. So, I won't bother counting... but I will share a project I've been wanting to do for a while.
We moved out the old Radio Cabinet (it's still for sale!) and added in IKEA shoe cabinets. I am sure they have a Swedish name, I just can't remember. I actually call them the shoe boxes. As in, "You better get your dang shoes off of the floor! I didn't spend that much money on the shoe boxes to allow you to IGNORE them." They were kind of expensive; at almost one fifty a pop, I splurged. But, it's well worth it!
That space has looked so many different ways in such a short two years. I even wrote a post about it here. But it's changed at least twice since then. Not only do I have cool, new shoe boxes, I also have a new "mantel." And it's changed since THIS:
I've been working my butt off today to try and get the house put back together and decorated for Thanksgiving. I finally painted all of the patches from all of the gazillion nail holes. I also made a new chalkboard. And I even just about finished the bathroom.
Here is the new fall mantel:
Do you like my new chalkboard? I bought a painting that I quite liked (Nic called it the Paris painting) from Ross a while ago. But the colors did not lend to the new brighter colors in our formals. So I decided to paint it Mega Greige and make it into a chalkboard. And after several layers of regular and chalkboard paint, I love it! =)
Well, so much more to do. Tomorrow is CLEANING DAY (since today was PROJECT DAY). And Wednesday is BAKING DAY.
I'll check back in before Thanksgiving, I am sure.
Hope the next few days go smoothly for you as you get ready for the Holiday, yourself!
