Just had myself a very nice little weekend. I got to do a few things that have been on my list forever. The first was use my soup pot to make some homemade chicken noodle soup. The husband convinced me to add an entire box of paste to the soup. It didn't exactly turn out as soup-like as I would have liked. Lesson learned: don't listen to the husband. :)
The next thing on my list was finally re-painting the Abby room. Remember how I said I wanted to find a color that was fun, inspiring, peaceful and pretty. Yeah well I couldn't decide/find a color that fit all those. I have a bazillion paints chips in my house and none of them seemed right.
So finally I just went to Ace and stood in the paint aisle and told myself I was leaving with the color I would use. Thankfully it was getting close to closing time so it made me hurry up a little. I don't know why picking a color is so hard for me, but I seem to out WAY too much thought into it.
Here's the color I decided on. Sorry this pic is horrible, the color is a light minty green-blueish color. I think it looks great with the nice crisp white trip.
The best part of the room though is what's in it. My sewing machine finally has a home! I can't wait to get started on some projects. I went to Michael's and got some of the supplies I needed for some of the zillion projects I've found on
Pinterest. Haven't been on pinterest yet?? You should. Just be warned, you will now spend way more time looking at projects then you will actually doing them.
