blow it up.
I was determined to have an oversized picture of E in her new room, but I wanted something more dramatic than a gallery-wrapped canvas. Enter HomeGoods. I found this baby on clearance for $27. One of the edges was cracked and because it was beveled it took a bit more to repair than just a flat edge. I was happy to pay the extra money because I am so happy with the results!
Stay tuned for the full reveal of her room tomorrow!

black stallion.
This beauty has had quite a makeover. Not so long ago, she looked like this…
That was in my parents house. As soon as we moved her to our house we lost the hutch. See how I created the wall of intaglios here.
But I still wasn’t thrilled with it, so I painted it the same color as the walls.
and spruced up the hardware with Krylon Gold Spray Paint
I also had a piece of glass cut to protect the top.
Isn’t she lovely?

Just a Little Snippery.
I bought this dress from Asos a few months ago. Cute, right?
Not if you have boobs or an ounce of fat on your arms. Since I bought it online, I did not want to send $20 returning it. Instead, I spent $20 having it altered. We turned the sleeves into a much more flattering cap sleeve and took in the waist just a bit. I wore it to E’s first communion…. and was quite happy with the results!
