Weekend Wrap-Up

After this past weekend I have lots to blog about, mostly updates!

Update #1: I am almost finished with the Guest Room. Yay! The prints I ordered from art.com came in and I did NOT love them. The paper was pretty much the same color as the walls, and I didn't want to change the wall color. So I decided to go with paper from Paper Source in some pretty prints. They made the room. They just pop, and what I love is they are the first things you see when you walk up the stairs. I also got the frames from Aaron's Brothers 1 cent frame sale. The whole project came out to be <$100!







Update #2: I put up the door hardware a couple weeks ago, but finally took some pictures! They are a little different than the ones I originally posted. They are still egg-shaped handles, which I LOVE, but they have a keyhole. We figured it'd be best to just get all door knobs that lock on the bedrooms, especially since they were only $2 more. They turned out GREAT and I really love them! Again, this whole project was less than $100, thanks to eBay!





Update #3: We took Master Mo, our foster dog, to an adoption event yesterday and he got adopted!! I was really sad, but he went to a good home.

However, that home had a cat and apparently he does NOT like cats! He, quote, "tried to kill it". lol. So, we get him back tonight :)

And that's about it for interesting updates! I do have to brag that the weather here is amazing - sunny and 73 and not a drop of humidity :) It's weather like this that reminds me why we go broke to live here.
