This week is one of those weeks of summer that I wish would never end. The temps are in the upper 70's/low 80's with no humidity, an occasional gentle breeze, sunny and oh so perfect for being (or working) outside.

Grad Party: Furniture Projects
I showed you all the projects I wanted to get done for the party HERE. I'm cranking out furniture projects for the store all the time while my own projects languish in the woods, or are used looking ugly. I was determined to use the same passion and drive for the store projects on our own items, so we can enjoy them for the party, and thereafter!
I'm happy to announce that in one month I got a whole lot of furniture projects completed...with quite a bit of help from the seamstress extrordinaire, Happy Girl. Here's how they turned out:

Happy Room for a Happy Girl!
A couple years ago, Happy Girl and I spent the weekend sewing curtains for her room out of a bright, fun, Amy Butler print.

Spring's in the Basement
It was snowing again today...I made chili one last time...and then I needed to escape to springtime...
No, I'm not in Florida or some other version of the tropics, like 9/10 of our school district population this week...

Two are Better than One!
Two side tables (on either side of a couch or bed) are better than one whole desk that is no longer being used. This one is painted in Miss Mustard Seed's French Enamel.
