Triangle Banner

I have always seen Triangle Banners and LOVED THEM....so.....I finally made one.

To make this banner I actually just used12x12 scrapbook paper {cardstock}, cutout one triangle per sheet, making the top of each triangle 12 inches and coming down to a point I then...used my favorite thing...a hot glue gun to glue it onto my ric rac.

Painting....Molding.....

The last 2 weeks my husband and I found some motivation.....

Before

After

I am in love with our new paint color!  Which is a good thing because painting a 2 story entry is no easy task...so it will have to stay for a very long time.
My favorite this is how the darker paint color makes the new moldings pop and look so clean!  Moldings are something so simple yet I forget sometimes the drastic impact they have on the feeling of a home.  I will not expand right now...we will save that for another post!

I have also repainted the banister a dark chocolate color which I also love.  There again a very good thing because painting a banister is no easy task...it takes FOREVER!  And I really don't want to do it again!

Now it is time to decorate ... the best part right?  I have never had so much wall space before...I AM SO EXCITED!!!  

An Early Morning and a K!!

WOW, it is 6:30am and I am up and moving...not by choice but since daylight savings time my daughters think 6:30am is a good wake up time.  I decided I might as well get up and blog right?

Here is yet another sneak peak at my daughters room...geez one of these days I will get it done right?  It is so close....I am currently working on pillows for her room hopefully I can post them tomorrow!

I just love letters, I thought she needed a few.  I actually drew the shapes on this letter and then painted them and outlined them with a ball point pen.  Such a fun way to add color to a letter!

Night Stand Redo!

I am so please with how this nightstand turned out!  The best part is the cost...I found the night stand at a Thrift Store for $7 the knobs cost $6 and the best part is my neighbor had left over paint I used!  I know, right, a night stand for $13 can't beat that.  I am so pleased with the Chandelier hanging over it, it seems to give it just the right touch, don't you think so? (name that movie, all you moms out there with a Cinderella addict will know)

Hope you are having a wonderful evening

TTFN,
