Makeover Monday #2

Wooden Play Kitchen Inspiration

I have been wanting to "make" Kaydence a wood play kitchen. I have seen many designs online and an getting overwhelmed by inspiration. I purchased a small wooden child's desk at my local Salvation Army and started with that. I will make sure to make a big deal out of post about it when it's all done. Here are some of the amazing wooden kitchens I've seen done thus far and all of the fabulous inspiration! enjoy!

So much creative goodness in all of these!!! We'll see what I can come up with!

Makeover Monday #1!!

What My Sunday Mornings Look Like and Giveaway Winner!

I doubt any of you know this about me but I play bass guitar. I actually met my husband doing so. :)  My husband is the Worship/Music Director for our church and I have the privilege of playing bass at least once a month.  It is such a great way for me to worship and to even get to play along side my handsome hubby is even better :)  Just thought I'd share this little tid bit of a fun fact.

(this is a really old pic but it has us both in it) :)

Now on with the 5th Annual Cottage Charm Giveaway winner.  The winner was selected by random.org number generator and it chose #52! 

Congratulations to...

Vintage Dresser Makeover

I finished the dresser! I think this is my favorite restoration by far. I love it! Remember the piece I found at The Salvation Army...

Beautiful but in need to some TLC!  So I sanded this one good!  It needed a heavy sanding to get all of the chipping paint off.  Once it was nice and smooth I primed it with spray Kilz primer.  I had a lot of paints here and there left over from rooms and other projects, so I mixed 4 different paints together to get a creamy, grey, beige.  Sounds weird I know but it's really pretty.  Here is how it turned out!

I love the way the colors in this room pull together so nicely.  Happy girl right here!

Most Recent Salvation Army Find

Last Friday, my friend and I hot the local Salvation Army for their 40% off day!  I wasn't really looking for anything in particular just wanted to check out what they had.  When I decided to move my craft room to the family room,  I started slowly cleaning that room out to eventually turn into a nursery for our next child (no I'm not pregnant yet, just planning ahead).  For those of you who know me...you know this :)

Anyway, I was wanting to find a long dresser to use also as a changing table.  I was totally not planning on buying one yet but COULD NOT pass this one up!

It's from 1954 and has BEAUTIFUL lines!  The detailing on this is perfect.  The price was also perfect at $41.50!  I could not pass this baby up.  It's already sanded and primed and I'm hoping to paint it tomorrow!  Once it is finished I will post the final product.  I'm so excited about this one!

She Melts My Heart

I know, I know you are all getting tired of seeing pictures of my wee one, but I have to share these! My friend Christy from " Simply Harris" has been taking a photography class online and she wanted to shoot some photos ofKaydence. She called her a "unique beauty." I love it! Here are some pics from the shoot! I think she did an AMAZING job!
