Couldn't Resist...Had to post again!

I'm not sure what has gotten into me today...I just felt like posting again...

I guess I really just had a desire to brag about my wall of frames!  Love them, and the lovely Lady Courtney from TimelessNChic that made them for me, you can shop her store here, and I recommend you do.  Disappoint is not in her vocabulary.  

Not all of them went on the wall, I had other homes intended for a couple of my beauties.   This lovely chunky one ended up in my craft hutch.   

 And this one gave off a beachy feel, that had to be displayed in my bathroom!  See those adorable cranes next to the frame?  Yep, Courtney did those too...she's actually done quite a few things for me, I'm addicted to her!

So, after you check her out and buy a dozen of your own beauties, send me a pic.  I would love to drool over what she created for you.  ;)

Master Bedroom Remodel - Part 3

I love my room!  I had so much fun designing and decorating her.  Hunting Goodwill, The Barn, Hobby Lobby and of course Craigslist.  I even enjoyed all the furniture refinishing, even when I decided to redo three pieces!  Well, one good thing, at least I know I'm a semi gloss black girl!!!  Live and learn! 

This shot was taken from the door leading into the bedroom.   I promise to hang LOTS of stuff over the bed!  I know it looks really blank right now.

This was taken from the bathroom door.  I'll post pics of the master bath one of these days, I love the way it turned out too.  I'm thinking of buying two really cute trunks from Hobby Lobby to stack on top of each other and put in the corner by the craft hutch.

I took this standing buy the closet door, you can see the bathroom door on the other side.

I had to get a close up of this corner, I love these chairs and my craft hutch.  I think this is my fave corner.

So this is from the bed, you can see the back of Georgia, and my lovely wall sconces.  I'm going to put Lo's bed pillow in the closet after Connor's birthday, but I can't take the chance of the kids seeing his presents.  I don't want to ruin his surprise! 

You can almost see into the bathroom from here, and there's the door to the room on the right. 

So, I'm sure you noticed a lot of empty walls, the room isn't completely done.  I'm still working on some pieces.  I'm hoping to have some wall art up soon, but for now this is her in all her glory.

Master Bedroom Remodel - Part 2

I'm not sure what my problem has been this week...I've wanted to blog more and haven't had the time.  Connor is at school and Lo is across the street playing with her little friend, so I have time.  Well, not really, but the dishes and laundry aren't going any where...

The craft hutch started out on this side of the room and then a dear friend, Angie, made a suggestion to move it to another location.  (so it moved!)

See the black dresser?  It traded places with craft hutch, I don't think it minded.  The TV is still on the dresser at this stage, but trust me it doesn't stay there long.  See Georgia?  She's very happy at the foot of the bed, and Lo loves to play dollies on her.

Love the polka dot pillow?  Yes, this is where Lo camps out and watches TV.  How lucky is she?  I don't know too many three year olds with a 40 inch flat screen!

Ah, the Hubby, he wouldn't look at the camera of course.  Here's the proof that he painted, and love the color.  It makes me very happy.  Agave by Behr. 

Here's the room after a little rearranging, it'll be rearranged again before it's all done.  All of the black furniture even got repainted to a semi gloss before it was all said and done.  Yep I'm a glutton for punishment, but it had to be just right. 

Here's from the other side, I promise we hung curtains!  Promise more to come, maybe tomorrow, of the finished room.  When I say finished I mean until I change/add/do more....when is a room really finished? 

Master Bedroom Remodel - Part 1

Here is a sneak peak of some of the furniture I've refinished for the master bedroom design.  Everything in this post was bought on Craigslist or at the Barn, a local favorite.

This china hutch was refinished and repurposed.  What was once used to hold china now holds all my craft supplies and a few non crafty things...

This is the headboard, and I use it as such, boring I know.

I really like how the dresser turned out, of course this configuration and to be redesigned before I was completely happy.  Thanks to the hubby for hanging the T.V. on the wall.

This little lovely, her name is Georgia, hubby and I agreed that I had to have her.  Really.

This is Thelma, Louise is right next to her with her back to us, for $25 a piece I HAD to have them too.

So as promised this was the first peak into my room.  Hope you come back tomorrow to check out more.

The Stories of A to Z

How crazy am I?

Okay so that was a rhetorical question, all of you that know me know I'm slightly off...

I've been working on my master bedroom for about two months.  It's almost finished, I just want to share the before pics with you. 

It's been a lot of fun, and stressful, I won't lie.  I refinished SIX, yes SIX, pieces of furniture for this room.  Here's were the crazy comes in....I wasn't happy with three of the pieces, so I REDID them!  Crazy?  Yep I know. 

Here's something I learned, SEMI GLOSS is awesome!  Hopefully I will remember this and next time I paint, I'll use it instead of satin, then I won't have to redo anything!  lol

  

  

So this was the before, I only took these pics for insurance purposes.  How sad is this room?  It sat like this until about two months ago, 6 years like this!  Crazy?  See I told you...

Check back tomorrow for a few shots of the room as a work in progress....I promise to reveal all by the end of the week. 

Happy Sunday :)
