Pillow Project

So before I decide to go all out and paint a wall, I'm making pillows to practice!

Slowly they're coming along ..
So here is my first step, tracing the template, took FOREVER!
Second step two: begin painting!
(this was tricky because there is no real line to follow. 
 you're actually paining in the middle of each shape it was called double lines.)
Finished one side of the pillow, and I love it!
Now I just need to finish painting the other side and sew them together!
I will add the finished pictures as soon as I am done ..

Here is to a new chapter

It is the month of September and well school has started back up for everyone but yours truly.  Yes that is right I am not attending college this semester and well, mostly because I have NO idea what it is I feel like spending the rest of my life doing, besides being a wife and mother.  I seem to hear a lot of grief about not going to school and blah blah blah.  But this is what I have to say: I believe in myself that I can do great things for not only me but for my family.  I have and will continue to make the right choices as they come into my life and follow down the path that I feel is right.  So thank you for your comments but this is OUR (mine and Steven's) life and we know what were doing :)


So as for now, my plan is to get back into decorating and reading some good books!

My Project list:


1. Reupholster my free chair I picked up from down the street

2. Painted Wallpaper in one of the rooms of the house-(guest bedroom or bathroom, kitchen or living room?)

3. Pallet bookshelves

4. New night stands and lights for master bedroom

and of course enjoy my life with Steven and planning our future together!  :)

Look back for project updates!
Happy Tuesday everyone ..
