A new room in the making. :)

So it is FINALLY going to happen! Yea!!  I guess looking pitiful finally worked. LOL! 

My DH has started redoing my scrap room for me. I am super duper excited.

This has to be done in stages, of course, which will be hard, but it will be so worth the wait. For starters he is building my storage unit. It will be 8 feet tall x 6 feet wide. It will sit in front of a window, so I won't have the full size for storage.

The room measures 13 x 12 feet. I want cabinets, shelves and a counter also. I know how I want it to look, just hope it can be done. The room has a fireplace and two small closets on either side of it. The other wall has a window, then the other wall has a window and the other wall has the door. So it has some challenges on each wall. 

I am leaning toward a shabby look for it. I like soft pink and green. The cabinets will be white and the counter will probably be a tan or travertine (SP?) color. I have real hardwoods and want a nice area rug also. I am going to make Lacie her own scrap area. This way I could spend some daylight hours in there. Right now I keep her out of there because she is into everything. LOL! 

Once the storage unit is up, I will post a picture. I am so excited this is happening now. It is a real dream come true!

Happy Labor Day!

Well, the whole Labor Day weekend has come and gone.  My DH had the day off , but he had to re-screen in our back porch. It didn't look like it would take him that long, but you know how those things go... There is always more to do than what it APPEARS there is. None the less, it looks great! He is so handy, he has saved us THOUSANDS of dollars by doing our home repairs himself. ok.. where was I going with this....


I have two albums that I will be listing this week. One is a FAMILY "FALL" theme paper bag album, using the new MME "FALL IN LOVE" papers. The other one is a 4x6 chipboard flip WINTER theme album. I used MME Christmas Stack for it.


I am headed to my scrap room to start on an acrylic "PRINCESS" album, hopefully it will be done this week also. I have some really "BRIGHT" new bulbs in my light, kinda looks like a hospital operating room. VERY bright. Just what I wanted. :)

Lacie goes back to school tomorrow, and I hope she can have a easy day tomorrow. The teachers she has are so patient and kind to work with her like they do. SO , hoping and praying for a good week for her.


Have a great evening, I will post pictures of the new albums in a day or two before I list them.

**SWEET PAPER DREAMS**

It's Thursday... We survived our first week of preschool. :)

It's Thursday and we survived our first week of PRESCHOOL !! Yea!! Lacie started on Tuesday. It was a bit overwhelming for her and I had to pick her up early on Tuesday. She is a special needs child so we have decided to ease her into the routine by just doing two hours a day to see how well she can handle it.

She did better on Tuesday, and even managed to sit still for "Jesus Time". Today was a very busy day for her class. The girls had show and tell, boys go next week, and they had their cooking class and Chapel this morning. She did pretty good today, had a few rough spots but did pretty good.

I have been a basket of nerves this week and had headaches all week. Tuesday was a full blown migrane. Yuk. I didn't get what I wanted accomplished this week because of the headaches. I am hoping that I can get some more scrapping done this evening and this weekend.

I will be listing a cute Girl Tear bear one Page layout tonight on eBay. It has a vintage appeal to it. I have titled it "ADORE". I will post it later here tonight once things are quiet again. But for now, it is off to Wal-Mart. We need food and the TP is getting low. Gotta have my WHITE CLOUD!! LOL!

TTFN...
