Project

So this past week we've been busy painting Liberty's room purple with white trim and making it really girly! I know it seems kinda silly as this is not our own home, but if you know Charlie and I, you know we like to do makeover projects so we decided to do something with the room after my closet fell down in there. Yes, my clothes are all in Liberty's room. There is no closet in the master bedroom so Charlie made me a makeshift closet in her room, it collapsed one day, and needed to be resecured. So what started as fixing the closet turned into taking down the border wallpaper and repainting! The window seats in there needed to be recovered to match the new colors so I decided to do something I've never done before...I think its called piecing? I was so tempted to ask my mom if I could send the fabric to her and ask her to do it for me. But I decided to try and figure it out myself and see what happened. I suprised myself with how easy it was! Here's how they turned out:

Dresser for Libby

Isn't this such a cute dresser? While painting Libby's room I searched on Craigslist to see if I could find Liberty a dresser since she hasn't had one. I was so excited to find this dresser for only $50. Isn't that a good deal?!

I didn't like the knobs on it so I got some crystal pulls for it and I accidently dropped one and it broke! So we're waiting on a replacement...What do you think about the purple paint??
