Home Makeover
Monday, February 16th, 2009I have been trying to make my apartment pretty. I get it to where I’m happy with the way it looks and, two days later, I absolutely hate it and have to start over.
I love Design Sponge and one of my favorite sections is the Sneak Peeks, where you get to see artists’ homes and studios. They are so inspiring! I recently saw Jill Bliss‘ place and fell in love with her breakfast nook. I’m not sure if that’s what it is, maybe it her dining area. Either way, I think it’s pretty darn wonderful. So, with that in mind, I set out to make my tiny dining room a little more Jill-esque. It still has a long way to go but I like it so far. I’ll be sure to show you when it’s totally finished.

BEFORE
I moved all my furniture out of the space so I could start from scratch.
AFTER
…and a "huge" one!!!
Monday, January 26th, 2009I was watching TV a little while ago when, all of a sudden, I heard this horrible noise…like the world was coming to an end kind of noise.
Next I saw the cat run out of the bathroom and I obviously thought he did something! Well, I went in and all I found was the soap dispenser on the floor…so what happened???
Let me show you
Disaster area (my magazine shelves came crashing down)
And from the other side
This is where my book/magazine shelves used to be. I guess they were too heavy!!
A "Little" Accident

Better than I expected!!
Sunday, January 18th, 2009Lots and lots of lint but at least it came out the same size!
Something blue…
Sunday, January 18th, 2009I’ve “felted” way too many sweaters in my life but this is ridiculous! I have this light blue area rug and it was filthy so…I have to wash it, right?
Well, here’s what I found when I opened the washing machine!!! The thing is in the dryer now and I’m scared to look.
I’ll show you in a few minutes…
This is the inside of my washer after I pulled the rug out.
And some of the fuss that got everywhere!
Even on the floor!
