Painting, Sewing and Organizing

July 5, 2011 - 16 comments

Here is a peak at what I have accomplished during my kid-less week.

Painted my son's room {and organized his space}:



Recovered a bulletin board:


Picked paint colours for my younger daughter's room and will be re-covering the seat on what is to be my daughter's chair:


And sewed another pillow with fabric that makes my heart skip a beat!


Don't forget to enter my giveaway to win one of two subway prints!

    Loving the combo of red, black and white from what I can see. Very bold, perfect for a boy.

    If my kids were away I'd be sleeping all day and staying up late watching bad tv. You are a rock star girl. Way to go!!

    We all love our kids, but it's easy to get things done with an empty house, isn't it? Now when are we going to get to see all of your handiwork?

    I loved the striped bulletin board! Is that covered in fabric or is it painted? It reminded me of a current Ikea fabric. :)

    Awesome Barbara... I've been thinking about you a lot lately because my daughter has me enlisted to recover her throw pillows - all 14 of them! And I'm not the wizard at the sewing machine that you are. Wish me luck ;-)
