It's happening. Today.

Just dropping in to share with you what is going on over here--which is just like every other day, except this post is much shorter.  Maybe the shortest ever. This morning, Greta and I trekked out to get some paint and while she napped (she actually went upstairs and climbed in her crib and went to sleep by herself--crazy), I immediately got to trimming those walls out.  


So far. So good.  I'm not even hyperventilating.  Here's hoping I get some good painting time in today (hence the mini post) so we can share lots more photos tomorrow.

Also, our new chandelier arrived this morning! Honestly, it feels like Christmas.

  1. I'm not normally one to comment, but wanted to let you know I am so excited! I've been obsessing about you painting and hoped you wouldn't wait too long!
    I've also been in awe over your bravery at getting rid of things you no longer like or that don't fit your style and it has inspired me to go ahead and get rid of items I don't love anymore. It's always felt like failure to me, since I think i should just get it right the first time, and not change my mind! Tough lesson!

  4. I swear by my brush! I never have to tape off. I have seen it at Home Depot and Lowes, but here's a link to Amazon, too.
