I can't paint, but...

I sure can slap some Thickers and fabric up on a canvas to create something that makes me happy to look at!

We are currently re-doing our living room- I am so tired of all of the dark colors and "drab-ness" when my kitchen (which is connected to it!) is such a bright and happy place!

So far, we have gotten some new furniture, arranged it all the way that we like it and we are now in the process of taking down the (mostly black-framed) wall art, replacing it with lighter and more FUN pieces! I've also made a couple pillow covers (inspired by this and this from the awesome Allison at Cluck Cluck Sew). The next (and last!) step will be to paint in the den and the hallway! I am so excited to have this almost done!

... probably because it's been hanging there blank for a good 2 weeks waiting for me to get to it. I'm pretty sure everyone who came in our house thought I was trying to make some crazy artistic statement with a blank canvas on the mantle.

much better.

Don't forget about the clutch giveaway that ends on Friday!
