-I had previously written that I desperately wanted to find a new dresser for our bedroom. Since we recently got rid of my highschool, black iron canopy bed (FINALLY!) and got what we call our "grown up bed", my black dresser didn't match. I wasn't sure if I wanted to save up for the dresser that matches our new bed, or try to find something inexpensive and do the whole mix and match thing. Well, we were driving back from a visit to Michael's parents house in Texas and stopped at an antique store. This place was full of treasures! Seriously, if we'd had a Uhaul handy, I might have done a lot of damage! Unfortunately, we didn't have much room, but we did have just enough to haul back my new dresser! I love it! It still needs a little work, but I absolutely love the color and the style of it.
-Ok, the next thing wasn't exactly on my original to do list. It was one of those things that I did when I didn't feel like doing anything on my actual to do list. But, now that it's finished I'm glad I did it. I wanted to spruce up the wooden chair I had in my classroom this past year and give it a little pizazz. I still have to find the perfect cushion (I thought I found one with a perfect brown pattern, but my eyes were just playing a trick on me, and when I got home the brown was actually black :( ) but other than that it's finished!
I know what you're thinking..."Is that ALL she's done?!" Well, the answer is pretty much YES! It's summer! I'm taking full advantage of my 'allowed to be lazy' time and it has been wonderful. However, I will say that I've been doing some organizing around the house. I've also attempted at some gardening and also figured out which t-shirts I'm going to use for my quilt (both of which are on my to do list, thank you very much!) Anyways, I know everyone is eagerly anticipating the completion of all of my projects, so I'll be sure to post pics as soon as I have something to show! (That was a joke by the way. Courtney, I think you might be the only one who reads this!)
Until next time!
