It occurred to me today that many of the clothes that I have in my maternity stash have paint splatters on them. I guess that is because the only time I get the "bug" to decorate is when I am 8+ months pregnant. The orange shirt I currently don has paint on it from both Abby and Nathan's painted ceiling projects and yesterday I added to my maternity wardrobe some paint stained pants. Oh! and because I'm all about stuff coordinating lately, I went ahead and spilled some more paint ON OUR NEW AREA RUG AND ONE OF THE DINING ROOM CHAIRS!
I decided yesterday to paint the lamps in the living room black instead of the green that did not match anything I own. The lamps turned out lovely (except for the fact that I have bought and returned 3 lampshades for one of them and still don't have one that I like!) but in my pregnant clumsy state I SPILLED BLACK PAINT ON THE RUG AND CHAIR!!!I scrubbed and scrubbed the rug and luckily it's a funky green shag and you can't *really* tell but the chair was un-salvageable. I will say that I have contemplated recovering them since I got them about 3 years ago but the avocado green has kind of grown on me. I do have enough fabric leftover from the curtains for 2 chairs so I will recover the 2 that sit against the wall.
Guess that's ONE way to motivate me to get another put-off-for-too-long project finished!
I'll post a pic when I get them recovered!
I *did* get the wall words up (Thanks to some help from my UL friend Amy!) and pictures into frames!
