I totally spaced on CT last week. I may have been painting, or cutting out some lion costumes, or just running around like a crazy woman. Who really knows! All I do know is that Tuesday came and went and I didn’t have anything to put up there for you all. This week it is all about practical projects and getting things crossed off of my to-do list.<\/p>\n

And I can show the bathroom this week. First let me refresh your memory of the girls’ totally 60’s bathroom. (Excuse the horrid photo – it was the only one I could find, but you get the general idea, yeah?)<\/p>\n

Mmmm…pretty, eh? Can you blame me for my wallpaper-tearing-down fit? Remarkably, the wallpaper was easy to come down but it came down and left bare plaster walls. So I primed it and had every intention of putting a nice, pale yellow on the walls. But once the primer was on, the white just looked so nice and clean. So I went with a warm, yellow-ish white. And, now – I smile every single time I walk into that bathroom.<\/p>\n

I swapped out the white photo frames for black ones and shot some new bath photos last night for the other wall, too.<\/p>\n

Now I’m on the search for some cute vintage tea towels to make little half curtains for the windows. Stay tuned on that one.<\/p>\n

I have a baby shower today, so I put together some burp cloths. My friend doesn’t know the sex of the baby yet, so it was all kinds of green for the cloths. And I found the softest, light-green chenille for the back of them.<\/p>\n

And I attempted another little project that I’ve wanted to do for awhile…but I finally had to shelf it this afternoon. It is kinda a big fat FAIL. For now at least, until I can re-work it and hopefully make it work.<\/p>\n

They are supposed to be these little A-B-C stacking blocks, but the cubes are a little lopsided and I’m having lumpy issues. However, I did re-purpose the little birdy that was supposed to go on the B<\/strong> cube and made a baby card instead.<\/p>\n

And I helped Ad’s teacher by zig-zagging little handprint projects. I’m not really sure what they are doing with them, but Addie was so very proud that Mommy was doing something for HER class for a change. She also, ah…ahem…helped<\/em> me.<\/p>\n

Now we are back to our regularly scheduled programming…and cutting out lion manes. Fair warning – next week will be all lions and hopefully 19 completed lion heads. Don’t say you weren’t warned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
