A New School is...Cool!

It's that time again. Every year the summer seems to fly by faster & faster. Since we recently moved, both boys will be going to new schools & Mason is starting junior high. So far, so good; they both seem to like third & seventh grade. So here's to a year of learning & growing.

Front Door Gets a Face Lift

I am making many changes to our new home. We'll start with the front door since that is what you see first. It started out a dark red & now it's yellow- the color is by Behr & is called June Day. I painted both sides this color & am very pleased. Thanks to Dionne for suggesting the yellow front door; it never crossed my mind, but I love it & no one else in our neighborhood has one!

Sunny Yellow is Making Me Smile

Whew, it's been sizzling HOT here this week! I am a little behind on finishing up my latest finds due to the soaring temps; they have really made working in the garage unbearable even late at night. Finally completed them today; I think the sunshine had stuck in my thoughts because both of these pieces are a cheery sunshine yellow. Two completely different styles- one Shabby Chic & the other Mid Century. I priced the sewing desk higher than usual hoping that if someone really wants it, I will be able to part with it- if not it will become part of my home & that's just fine with me :)
