Well we’ve done it! We are officially into our new house and OUT of our old place. I can’t even tell you how sore I am from all that moving, not to mention the blisters I have from paint rollers. In 2 days we’ve managed to paint 4 colors and Primer over a total ofRead more
Squeee! This weekend we move into our house! Ugh, its been WEEKS, and every day I come up with new projects to do for the place. Like these botanical prints that I originally shared on Making The World Cuter. I haven’t let the fact that I’m not IN THE HOUSE yet slow me down. Oh no!Read more
