ruffle shirt

I made this ruffle shirt in half an hour the other day. I'll have to post a tutorial soon to show just how I did it.

three blues


Here we have the three blues all on one wall. The bright one, is the first color. The white looking one is the one we went out to buy last night. And the gray little blob is actually a color my husband mixed himself using the too white color we bought. We went with the gray blob color.


Before (left) : the ugly bright baby blue

After (right) : the gray blue my husband mixed

We love how it tuned out!
It helps having a husband who, as an artist, mixes colors for a living :)



collection


I just wanted to share my collection of thrift-ed milk glass.

the wrong blue

Remember this room? It used to be red. My husband and I were ready for a lighter more airy color so we went with a blue. We were wanting slate gray blue and it ended up being bright baby blue. Yuck! We lived with it for two days, couldn't stand it and just bought another lighter grayer color, hopefully it will be better. I'll keep you posted.

playing with toys




I got out the animals and plastic play dishes all because I just wanted to take pretty photos. The kids thought this was great seeing mom play with their toys. Fun was had by all.
