Etsy love

"Wise Owl" I LOVE this print I found on Etsy. I ordered it for the nursery and I am so excited about it! It just makes me want to make up stories about his whimsical adventures.

A little rearranging will take place, I'm sure, but I love it.

Room for baby

Several months ago, I found this old dresser at a flea market and knew it would someday have a spot in my home. Ever since we found out about baby, I have been anxious to refinish it.

It started out a nasty pinkish/tan color, had some structural issues and was pretty dirty, but I convinced Hubby to take care of all that for me.

I painted the dresser white and the drawers an aqua/blueish. Still haven't found cute knobs, but hopefully I'll stumble across perfect ones somewhere.

Perfect fit for all his things! And most everything I used was left over, so total cost was about $12 at most. I'm sure I'll make up for that with knobs...

Precious Foot and Hand

I want to start blogging again, but I'm having a hard time deciding where to do so. Here will work for now...

I think I've officially relocated.

goals...

I want so badly to keep up with this blog! Really- I do... it just seems impossible at this moment in life as I'm being tossed and pulled in so many directions I can't even seem to think straight most of the time. My current crafting area is mixed between bedroom and living room and it just doesn't seem to be working for me.... However, we are in the process of relocating and as soon as that happens and I get all settled in, I can promise this slacker blog will becoming something much more exciting! Until then...
