Paint, Pictures & Projects

Dear Diary,

I spent my weekend giving my hallway a makeover. I have wanted to paint it for awhile and just never have gotten around to it, so Saturday I bit the bullet and got some work done.

I painted, rearranged pictures, decided on a table and made myself a little something to tie it all together. I couldn't be more happy with the outcome, which is good because I am sick of working on it.

There is always a project, always an idea and always a slow process due to lack of extra cash lying around or more accurately, less time to get anything done. It does feel nice to finish something and be pleased with the result, but a finished big project has just led to more smaller projects, as it always seem to do.

I have come to the conclusion that I tend to decorate my house with pictures. Some people buy artwork for their walls or neat decorative pieces, which I have my fair share, but for the most part my walls and shelves are lined with pictures.

And why not? My girls are cute, our family is important, my photographer is amazing and my house needs decorating so it only makes sense. And lets be honest, does anyone stop to look at that framed sailboat you have hanging in your entryway? No. But EVERYONE stops to look at framed photographs.

Once I get a couple more pictures ordered and put in the frames that are hung and waiting for them, my hallway will be complete. However, if a 3rd child ever happens in this family, we will need more wall space.

Sincerely Yours,
