Thalia

Loved the dress Thalia was wearing during her performance at the White House, so I suddenly got "Thalia" fever... Here are a few nice pictures I found on the internet.

Window Mirror Project

A few weeks ago, I was able to obtain this mirror below at Craigslist. It has a small crack in one corner so I found a design that might be able to fix this. This is the mirror I got:



And here is a picture of how I want it to look. Well "kinda", being the "creative" person I am, I will put a whole new twist to it. Watch out for this! (This picture below is NOT my mirror).

The Weekend Project Reveal!






Last week I posted the "before" pictures of my weekend project. Today I am posting the "after" pictures. The "window/mirror" is not yet completely finished because I still have to add some "finishing" touches. So here is the "semi-after" picture of the "window/mirror" and the finished product of the nightstand.

Window/Mirror & Nightstand Project.


Here's a wonderful find at Craig's List last weekend. It was being given for free because it has a crack (see lines on the rightmost top corner). When I got it, I didn't know if I was going to cover it up with nice wallpaper material or a picture of Paris (a place I've been wanting to go back to, but with hubby this time). The small side table was obtained about a year ago, but I just never got around to completing the project. Good thing, because I got some very good ideas from the internet on how to "finish" these projects. Stay tuned!

Small Bedroom Inspirations

I am trying to get some inspiration for one of the bedrooms I am fixing up. My childhood friend is arriving in 2 weeks and I want to make sure that they are comfortable. Here are some inspirational rooms from HGTV that I liked:

Reading Room, This room used to be a Bathroom but we've opened up  the wall and are in the process of turning it into what we call a  "reading room".  Complete with a daybed and TONS of pillows!  :-), It's hard to believe this room used to be a bathroom!  It measures  six feet by six feet, and just happened to be the perfect size for a  twin-sized mattress.  We use the space to read, relax and as an extra  guest bed when we have out of town visitors., Bedrooms Design

The white painted finish and mirrored panels  minimize the piece in the compact space. A slide-out tray adds to the  piece's function without taking up valuable floor space.  , Bedrooms  Design

Master Bedroom, After we finished our yellow room, my Husband and I  decided to adventure to re-decorate our Master bedroom. We painted,  laid down floor, added crown molding, recess lighting and a chandelier.  After all that, we made the headboard (almost got a divorce over  this..LOL.ever try to re-model a space with your spouse?..ah!), all the  pillows and added a fire place which we painted and modified the part  where the TV inserts since we couldn't find anything that would truly  fit our fireplace or TV size (I should say my Husband painted and  modified). I had a really hard time with the curtains, to be honest.. I  do not like them down to the floor however, most people do., Bedrooms  Design
