My Picture Wall

I have wanted to start a picture wall in my house for quite some time now.  A few weeks ago I finally got around to starting my wall o’pictures.  I bought the saying in the center from the Dollar Store and collected old picture frames from around the house or I bought a couple from Dollar Store as well.  I put my wall in the middle of the hallway in between the master bedroom and the loft.  All my frames are black or black/silver for uniformity. 
Here is just a sneak peek of my picture wall.  There are no pictures in the frames as of yet since I am still working on finding the right pics to go in each frame. 

I love how it is coming along.  I can’t wait to fill it with pictures and even add more frames to it later on down the line. 

DIY Felt Wreath

I finally made one!  A felt wreath that I have longed to make for about a year now!  I found a couple of tutorials around the interwebs for a cute and easy to make wreath.  It took me a while to actually sit down and make it but when I did, I realized that I didn’t have a wreath which I thought for sure I have bought at the Dollar Store.  So two days ago, I made it out to Michael’s and found my wreath so that I could get started.  And here is my beautiful wreath

The pic came out rather fuzzy but oh well.

My Foyer Make-Over Part 1

Ever since we moved into our house a year and almost a half ago, I’ve wanted to repaint the trim in our foyer.  The previous owners had the trim painted an ugly ‘purple’ color as I call it.  It’s probably really called ‘mauve’ but it still looks purple to me.  Well we I finally got around to repaint it white.  Unfortunately we don’t have the paint for the trim in the rest of the house so I had to do my best to find a pretty white.  I started the first coat the other day and finished the second coat today and am now waiting for it to dry so I can take the tape off and clean up the newspaper.  Here is a sneak peak of how it looks.

Before:

The new color is on the left… old yucky purple color on the left.

I can see the improvement already!  I will post final pictures when I am done.
