Whirlwind Weekends............

Whirlwind weekends............

I want to apologize for not writing the past few weeks. We have had projects galore getting the nursery ready and then we had a weekend family trip, so my blog was put on the back burner temporarily.  I have been busy though with pages and pages of ideas for our home, planning the nursery, employing the Mr. to help me, and prioritizing which projects are most important.

I admit, I keep getting distracted and need to focus on the nursery.  So we did just that this weekend. Painting of the crib is almost finished.  The color we went with is Cracked Pepper by Behr.  It was suggested by my friend Cindy Sullivan of Vintage Loved. It is amazing gray! I also toned down an old brass mirror in this for over his dresser with the cracked pepper.  It looks great. Then I raided my Dad's wood supply and found perfect pieces he had already pre-cut to use to make distressed signs with cool surfer lingo for one wall......"shoot the curl", "hang ten", "surfer dude", etc.  I am excited about this and hopefully will get the signs done next weekend.

I also finished the cute little cabinet I had posted earlier which will be perfect for his Lego storage and Matchbox cars. The rocking chair was given to me by my parents on my first birthday. I will post more pictures as it comes together. Here is a preview...............




Just a few finished items...........more to come:)
