Exhausted
Posted on | August 9, 2009 | 3 Comments
We are preparing our house to sell and oh man, I am pooped! It’s hard enough getting through that to do list without any added complications but when you add it two busy little french fries it gets darn near impossible! Thankfully my parents took the boys for us yesterday and played them hard while the hubs and I worked worked worked. We finished painting our large family room and installing new baseboards. It looks great but oh so different. When we first moved in, just a month after our wedding, I painted this room key lime with dark brown trims and light blue accents. It is now a creamy white with bright white trims. It looks good but it’s so not me. I miss my cheery green little room.

After
It looks nice and hubsy did a great job on the trims, I just miss my colorful space.
Onto cheerier things. I thought I’d share another of my past projects with you. In addition to that blue blanket I made for my nephew, I wanted to make sure my little niece got a little surprise too. I had this fuzzy white yarn sitting around, well, actually it was in a half finished scarf that I frogged. I also had the red yarn lying around. I modified a purse pattern I found online as well as a flower patter and voila! My little girly purse.

The room does look great! I love the “peeking eyes” of the littlest french fry! That purse is adorable too!!

Thanks Rachel, I couldn’t have made it without your easy to follow pattern.
And thanks mom
