Nursery

Since I am expecting my first baby, I've been looking at lots of nursery ideas. Here are a few I really like. My nursery is already a grayish taupe so some of these would not need a lot of extra paint.





I'm not all about PINK, PINK, PINK for a girl but I think this one would be great for a girl!



Can you tell I like blue? :)







And last but not least...

Idea Board

I am doing a custom order for a girl and threw this idea board together today for her. It always helps to visualize what you want.

A new look to my Living Room

I am loving these living rooms and am about to venture into doing mine in one of these schemes! They are beautiful yet functional!



... Not a living room but love these colors. My walls are already a creamy yellow, so no new paint. :)

The wonder of STRIPES

I got this wonderful idea from Emily A. Clark! I wanted something to spruce up my kitchen on my week off and I found just the thing. Here are my before and after pics.

Doesn't this just make all the difference in the world?! :)






The white stripes tie in with the white cabinets beautifully!

Revamping my Bedroom




Hello! What a wonderful week! I had a whole week off of work and it has been wonderful!! The weather has been absolutely beautiful! Got to sit out and get a tan and even had time to read a book! :) I totally revamped my ETSY shop today and am now offering FREE SHIPPING and layaway! YAY! I put up shelves in my laundry room this week with a bar for hanging clothes. It is so nice! My next big project right now is to re-do my entire bedroom. I put some pics of what it looks like currently. I am looking to make it look like the the all white rooms in the pics given. It will be such a fresh look compared to now! Whew! I want to do all of this thought without spending any money, and I think I can accomplish this. If I paint everything white and then sell my whole set, all I will need is new curtains and a new bedskirt since I already have a white quilt/comforter. My husband always teases that he comes home from work and in one day I have completely built, rebuilt, rearranged or changed something in the house. That's a little exaggeration I think, but it is partially true. :)

ETSY going alright but a little stagnant which is why I revamped my shop. Looks a lot better, I just need to get new items listed but it's hard when all I can keep up with is the orders I get. That's ok. My full time job will be over on July 23rd so I'll have more time then. :)
So here's my current bedroom:



Here is an idea: I love these! What to do, what to do?
