here's what...here's what I'm obsessed with lately.. turning my house sloooowly into a beautiful, white, beach styled cottage with a flair of Eiffel Towers and a little splash of France. And then freak out when my boys smear dirt all over my perty white things! ha. Just kidding. I am determined to raise my boys well and full of all boy even in a "delicate environment." So far, so good. we've mad major headway on turning the kitchen into white cabinetville- thanks to my Dad -Mr. crafty man who sometimes doubles as our home improvement slave.:) Don't worry, we pay him well. Handcrafted iced mocha's with Starbucks espresso beans makes for good Doodah payment! Plus lots of love and hugs!:)Most recently, I took a major dare from a fellow DIY-er (do it yourself er)- (thanks Laura!) and whitewashed my red brick fireplace. I shall add photos later.
This summer, I hope to undertake and learn from the best (seamstress my Mother...yes, conveniently related to the home improvement slave:) and work along side her to cover those oh so getting stained and spilled on daily khaki couches/sectionals. A loose, shabby chic, cottage white cover is what this girl drools over and mostly for the simple fact of BLEACH and oxyclean to bleep out those stains from growing, little men.:)
So exciting the possibilities, and I love watching my little ranchy, ranch-poo turn into my little happy cottage of sorts. Lately, I really enjoy watching Swamp People with my own gators. Hope to post more soon!
