BABY SHOWER

Well we had the baby shower on Saturday and I was amazed at not only the turn out but how generous all the kids friends were. They received so many gifts and all are very nice. We had 40 quest show and it was a co-ed shower. Brandon is very excited and is part of everything. Even his guy friends all showed up. We had a great time at the park and had a BBQ.

Here is a picture of Tanna and Brandon (he is tall 6'4").

A few random pics and yes you can see how men shop. The pictures of the black onesies are from one of the guys. We had a good laugh!!

Kaden is due May 13th but ill take him now!!! This is my first Grandchild and I'm so excited!!

Before and After

This is a nice cabinet that I just finished. Rather than useing old paper I used some of my vintage fabric. Trimmed the piece in gold. You can click on photos to enlarge!!

STEP ONE ON VANITY!!

Well I painted the vanity and now I am trying to figure out what color of glaze to use. I love green and I am thinking of a nice soft green. My bedroom set, bedspread and curtains are vintage and the fabric is to die for!! I will also repaint my walls so once I figure out what color I will then add color to the vanity. I still need to paint my dressers but thats a job in itself!!
