Pride and Joy

Since we moved into our house I have been painting like a mad women non stop. I have painted the entire house and I'm so happy to say I am almost done. Besides painting I did a couple wall projects that I'm absolutely loving. Pretty soon after we moved in my good buddies Melanie and Kenzie helped me put up this beauty. It's textured wall paper that I painted over. I loved how it turned out and thank goodness they were there to help because I had no idea what I was doing.

I just recently finished this wall and let me tell you, steciling a wall is a work of love. You would never belive how long this took. Once again I had a lovely assistant, my mother who is a pro at steciling to help give me tips.

Not looking forward to this process again. I have one more wall in a different room that I'm going to do. Yikes!

Oh and let the count down begin. My lovely parents get back from their mission in 21 days and I couldn't be any more excited!!Photobucket

Love the walls! You have done such a great job. I bet that has been a big project. I hope you're watching SYTYCD this summer, it's been really good so far.
And I'm so glad your parents are coming home soon! I bet you just can't wait.
