Hello all. I have been stuck in a rut! A rut of not updating my blog, that is. I love reading all your blogs but I just kind of lost the desire to blog about myself. I even thought about deleting my blog but then my husband and number one fan of this here blog told me that the blog must go on! I didn't realize he liked it so much! How sweet! So here goes! I thought it only natural to continue where I left off from my last post. This summer I got a hold of my old twin bed frame from when I was a young gal and decided to paint it and put it in Emma's room. The darn thing took about 50 million cans of spray paint! Not really, it only took about 10 but that is A LOT of spray paint! I'm not really sure why it took so much and honestly, I felt like it needed a coat or more at least but I just got so darn tired of spraying and my poor fingers got so sore! I was going for the Shabby Chic look anyway, so its good enough! So without further ado, here it is folks:
I realize these aren't the best photos to display my handy work but you get the idea! Emma likes it and its a step up from having the mattresses just on the floor without a frame! Her room is a work in progress and its been fun to decorate! The white furniture would totally pop out if there was a nice colorful shade of paint on the wall. I wonder if my landlord would allow that?! Hmm. Emma is getting so big! She turned 3 this summer, if you can believe it. I will slowly but surely be adding some more posts to this blog so that you can see what we've been up to this summer! I must admit, it feels good to be back sharing with you in this crazy blogging world that we call Blogger : ) Hasta luego.

Way cute bed! Spray paint is way over-rated, I think. Every time I think, "Oh, this will just be a quick job with some spray paint." Only it takes about fifty thousand paint cans and about fourty thousand trips to the store, and about thirty thousand coats with a half hour between each coat! EXHAUSTING!
So cute!! And I like the white on white. Emma is a lucky girl. (And her hair is so long!) Glad to see you're back blogging.
Very cute bed, and even cuter girl! I am glad you're back...I've been watching for your return so that we could keep up on your cute family!
Thye bed is sooooooo cute. Emma of course is soooooooo cute. Glad the blog is going on I would miss it too. I totally understand the rut.
Dani it looks great in the bedroom! That was such a good idea. Even if it took 50 million cans. :) I love the Ducks cookies. How funny!
So darling!!
