Projects, projects, projects.

I'll get back to this one some day.  As if the pealing wall paper wasn't scary enough...

But right now I'm practicing using a pattern to make junior bridesmaid and flower girl dresses.  Hoping I'll be good at this by March 17th.

 Here is my practice fabric.  I bought a ton of this when I thought I would use it for something else, and then I didn't use it.  So if my sewing is a success, you'll see lots of gold swirly, hot pink dresses on the girls.

 The junior bridesmaids will be in this green.  And the flower girls will be in the oatmealy color...IF I can improve myself at all.

This picture isn't very clear, but my friend's blog inspired me the other day and I up and painted my laundry room.  The trim, ceiling and walls were all brown.  It was a dungeon.  I took the cob-webbed screens off the windows and painted the trim, crown molding, floor boards, and ceiling white (3 coats in about 6 hours).  I drank strictly coffee and hardly ate.  I think that helped.  I still need to paint cabinets and walls.

The girls bathroom is halfway painted.  From pee-pee yellow to pealed cucumber.  Nice and light.

And since my sisters and I have found pinterest, I think we've all decided this is a crafting Christmas, and we're making lots of gifts.  Busy days ahead.
