Works In Progress

Greetings....well it has been busy around here....we have finally switched out the office for the children's room....well kind of....we still have to switch out the closets...but the big stuff is done....

Here is a butterfly garland sophie and i made from an anthropologie catalogue....i think we need to drape the corner with more or from the ceiling....we will see....this is the corner where here toddler bed is....it was unmade so no photos....

Here is my new spot....

the desk is definitely a work in progress....i dont know if i should refinish it or give it a good scrub and just put some pretty knobs from anthro on it....i have ridiculous amounts of art and craft supplies as well....there is probably some weird giveaway in the future coming too since i only did one at the beginning of summer....
If you live local stop by the claremont green market at the packing house tomorrow....there is also a wine walk going on....should be fun!
