My First Chalk Paint Piece!!!

First off, I can't tell you how excited I am to be doing a post about an actual project.  It feel like years since I painted anything, touch up painting the walls doesn't count!  (even if it does keep me very busy!)

I feel like the last person to us Annie Sloan Chalk Paint.  Finally, I've used it, and like everyone else I LOVE it!  It was a little touch and go at first, and the wax is gaining my admiration, but in the end, I'm beyond pleased with the products. 

I really like the hand painted look of the piece, which says a lot, I usually go for a flawless finish.  This is the first piece in my house that I have actually hand painted with a brush.  The rest have been sprayed.

Well, I'm gonna stop singing the praises of ASCP, and show you my finished piece.  I hope you love it as much as I do!

Check out the cute model!  Isn't she adorable?

Highlights from Party #28

I almost didn't get this post done.  I've been crazy busy with school starting for both kids.  Remember, with the girl in school, now I get two whole days to myself!

That being said, you would think I would have more time for blogging, nope.  Sommer at Designer Garden and I are having an "Upcycled" Garage sale this weekend, so we've been busy busy.  It doesn't help that we keep going to the same stores with no success!  lol

Sneak Peak of some of the things Sommer and I are preparing for the sale!

This is me

Waiting Game

I love Craigslist, but I hate the waiting!  I want you to get back to me immediately and accept my offer!  Am I asking too much?  It just bothers me, that it will take some folks days to respond.  Another pet peeve of mine, if the item is sold, take it off Craigslist!

Just wanted to share some pieces I'm waiting, not so patiently to hear back on.

This first bed would be great for the next house for my daughter.  They are asking $135, but it's been on the market a while so I offered $90.  I just bought my daughter an entire bedroom set, but the bed is a little boyish, and I thought I would use in in my sons room.

The Pre K Happy Dance!

It's more like a jig really.   I wish I could video myself doing it.

 My youngest started school this week.  I can't believe she is in Pre K, where does the time go?  I'm really excited, insert jig here, I hope to get some projects done and relax.  Another great thing will be being able to get my errands ran without children!  No more screaming fits and begging for stuff, and stopping to pee in every public bathroom.  Okay that last one may still happen.

Prepare for photo overload.

Here's Lauren Avery about a week after she was born.
