oh, yeah. Remember how I was re-upholstering a chair?

Um, so yeah it may be almost a year since I decided to re-upholster my first chair. Let me tell ya, it's been difficult. Not because of the project itself, over all I'd say it's been pretty darn easy. Finding the TIME has been another thing. My husband took a job last year that required him to be gone 5 1/2 days a week, so mommy free time was very few and far between! And then winter came and we have no garage so I didn't feel like painting an old chair in 40 degree weather. If you'd like to catch up on the sloooowwww progress check it out here and here. If you can't recall what this chair looked liked before here you go:

And here is what it looks like now:

The somewhat finished product.  There are a few more things that need finished: the cording, the seat cushion cover sewed on, the bottom screwed back on, and the felt covering up the underside of the seat.

I'm currently obsessed with rifle paper co. Anna Bond is Ah-mah-zing! So a rifle iphone case? No brainer. Now if I could only convince the hubby that I need an iphone to go along with one of these cases...

So dearest honey of mine here is my mother's day wish list, hopefully you take a gander at it. I promise to act surprised. ;)

The new do'

The messy curly mop is gone, for now. I love it both ways, but at some point it gets a little too long and it's time to change things up. He now has a nice short hair cut just in time for summer.
*I can't get a smile out of him, this is what he gives me every time. Oh, well. He's still cute, I'll let it slide.

Confession: I'm pretty much obsessed with home decor, if you haven't already figured that out by now. Here are a few things I'm digging right now and can only dream at the moment of getting for my home.

Got anything you're currently loving?

my house has a case of the mondays

Do you ever look at something and finally it's like the blinders are off? Fresh eyes I think they call it. Well that happened to me the other day while looking around my house. EVERYTHING is BEIGE! Ok, not everything but too much stuff is all in the same color family. The walls are beige, the rug is beige, the lamp shades are beige, the curtains are beige, the chair is beige...etc, etc. You get the point. It's time for a change. I live in Oregon more specifically the pacific northwest. It rains or  is cloudy easily nine months out of the year. While outside might be cold and dreary, my house I feel, needs to be happy and colorful. The beige will be sloooowly filtering out and being replaced with more bright and white and colors. I will be sure to show you the eventual changes down the road, of course.

See what I mine?!? The beige has got to go.
