... My New BFF


...IS SPRAY PAINT!!

... I have never really been a big Spray painter! It's messy and stinks! But after seeing what some creative people can do with a can of spray paint, I was sold!! Here is what I've been busy doing (besides sniffing it)...

...I bought a new shower curtain for Sweet Pea's bathroom, but didn't want to spend the money on buying a new soap dispenser, tooth brush holder and trash can. So I sprayed painted what I already had!! I am not the best at it, but practice makes perfect!!

...I recently found some Decorative Wood Plaques at Big Lots. They had 2 white and 1 black. I bought them for $8.00 a piece thinking I would use them as is, somehow! I then got the brillant idea to spray paint them all the same color!! So that is what I did!

...Now if my lil sis doesn't come and get these BEA-U-TI-FUL bead-board frames out of my garage, I am claiming them and they will be spray painted!

...Feeling a little Martha

(getting dinner ready... notice the countless bottles of the good stuff around)
...My family & friends tease me that my name should've been Martha. Sometimes I agree, because sometimes I can be pretty freakin' crafty! 
My Pottery Barn magazine came in the mail yesterday, I then proceeded to flag it with sticky notes. It looks like the Ikea catalog that is oh so worshiped in the Sassy Stewart Home. I flag it because I like to dream, and I DREAM BIG! 

My goal for the year 2-0-0-9 is...

Be a little MORE Martha!
I love crafts and so why not do it non-stop for the next year?

PS. Sweet Pea is cracking us all up these days... Gosh I LOVE HER!!
