Pull it ALL out

So, I decided to get gutsy and paint my toenails will the munchkin was awake.  I know it may seem ridiculous to call this gutsy....but when you've got that little face and ten curious fingers in front of you....its gutsy, okay?

My solution was to distract her with the depths of my nail polish bag and boy did she have a good time!

She carefully removed EACH item and threw placed it aside.  I tried to pack up before she was done but we quickly realized it was vital to remove the last several bottles of nail polish before we packed up for the day...haha. 

I'll Spare You The Mush

So....you saw my fancy sewing machine, but I didn't have a good place to put that beauty. So, I desperately needed another desk for two reasons:

1) Awful Walmart corner desk for the computer
2) Really cute refinished desk from craigslist that ONLY holds the sewing machine

CHECK OUT THIS BABY................

Hand crafted by my awesome husband

(that's right ladies...he rocks)

Don't let the picture fool you. This bad boy is long enough to hold not only the computer, but also my sewing machine, AND the serger. It's a small room's dream table.

My personal carpenter offered to cut cord holes in the top to organize all the chaos and he even suggested carving out the back of the legs so it would sit flush to the baseboard and wall.

I decided it was perfect the way it was and I didn't want to risk not thinking it was perfect, so I had him leave it just like you see above.

Hasta la vista nasty corner desk!

AND.....if you know anyone that wants a really great desk that I refinshed, just let me know :)

Only the Beginning....

One Girls Camp craft down............

So many to go......

I know you are anxiously waiting...

but I don't want to post pictures until it looks completely done. I am so proud of us! We used plenty of tape and a chalkline and it turned out pretty dang good. We finished all the painting on Sunday afternoon but we still have to touch up the chair rails and hang them. When those are done and I have some pretty pillows to match..I will take a picture. I promise.

While I'm on here I thought I would also post about how excited I am for this weekend. I told Tyler to take Friday off and we are having a little post-birthday bash. He has no idea and I have been SOOOO good about being sneaky. I cannot wait for him to find out what he has in store!
