Picture Frame Redo

I've had this picture frame since Lumpkin, well, since I started calling her My Little Sugar Lumpkin. 16 years ago, I was in a sunflower phase. It hasn't matched ANY of my decor for some time now, so I decided to update it to fit into the color scheme of my new bedroom. My room is a lovely shade of light blue/green and my accent colors are pink and white.


I started out mixing red and white paint until I got the desired shade, but it fell flat. I then decided to add a metallic pearl white to it and that was the touch it needed.

Yep. That's my little six month old Lumpkin. She's sitting on the ugliest couch EVER after just waking up on her first Christmas morning and she has a cold. Even when she feels bad, she's still a little ray of sunshine!

No Job, But I've Been So Busy!!!

Not our house, but you get the drift...


I haven't found a new job yet, but it has been crazy busy. After the move, we've been settling in to the new house, cleaning, painting and unpacking.
I chose this pic because the paint is so close to the color I chose for my new bedroom. And because my awesome roommate helped me paint... We spent 3, yes I said 3, hours removing two layers of wallpaper from ONE wall. Crazy!!!

I am not stressing about a new job because I know it will happen. This is the best and most relaxed I've felt in almost two years. They say everything happens for a reason and I believe it! I was miserable, but would never have left that job on my own.

I can't believe Christmas is almost here! I have not completed one craft or gift project that I intended to do in the last month. I hope to finish all of the tedious chores this week so I can begin creating by the weekend! I have a Christmas Bazaar that I'll be working on Saturday. I will have a booth for my Just Jewelry business. Please visit my web page if you haven't had a chance to yet. I have perfect Christmas gifts priced affordably!

Have a great week my blog friends!!
