While you were at school I decided it would be nice to spruce up the home a bit with a few new decorations. I know that that is not the number one priority, especially on your list, however I am feeling quite crafty right now and needed an outlet. And I can explain…
It started out as a mess trying to figure out what I wanted to do, but don't worry its all clean now! Here is what I did...
Do remember the counter top before? It was a little bland...
But now doesn't that look much better?
How about the Armorie, wont it be much more aesthetically pleasing to watch TV now?
Before
After
A little modge podge and ready to go!
What do you think about a chalkboard dinner menu? I think I may need mom to make me one permanently!!
So what do you think?
Now I wouldn’t be so quick to blame me for all this spontaneity you can blame Beth the creator of The Stories of A 2 Z blog. She really is a bad influence on me, I already have 3 more project for the upcoming days. With her around our home may just become more fun to look at, the nerve. One more thing you should know, I only spent $40 at Hobby Lobby and I used a lot of things we already had so that’s defiantly a bonus.
I do know dinner isn’t ready yet and the last load of laundry isn’t folded and put away but I can order a mean Chinese take out and we could enjoy it our newly revamped kitchen. What do you think?
Love,
Your Devoted Wife
Now to see if he even notices;)

Hmmmm.......I really like the bird house! we bought that same one at hobby lobby a couple months ago when I revamped our living room. :) looks great! I LOVE to decorate! Isn't fun?! I think your kitchen looks fab!
I love the chalk board menu! everything is super cute!
You are so talented! Justin is lucky to have such a creative wife. I too have a growing list of "to do" things I've seen on blogs...A reusable cloth Birthday banner, a children's quiet book, a "Family rules" canvas...etc. All fun time consuming stuff! None of them are priorities, but they're like an itch I can't wait to scratch.
Nancy I am going to try the the "family rules" today. They look SOOO cute. I hate that your moving we could have done some crafts together:(
cute!!
Very nice! Can we come over for dinner on Saturday? Steak and potatos sounds yummy. ;)
Love it
