We just had a really nice trip to BC to visit my family. It was a last minute kind of trip and way too short,
I have some family coming back this way, so I'm quite excited about that.

I probably should be getting the house ready for them, but, I just really don't feel like it right now. It can wait! Priorities right?? Heehee.


Even though I've been gone I have managed to get a few things done. Yay!
 I finished one of my side coffee tables... 
 

I also prettied up an old dresser we got off of Kijiji...
(Before)

(After)
 




Quite a long time ago, I was talking about painting our front door. I finally got around to doing it, and 
now I'm not sure what I think about the color  I picked. I've gotten mixed reviews about it.
What do you think?? 




And finally, a picture of the dress I made for Nadiya with the same pattern as her sisters.
I love it on her!

Yesterday we had a severe thunderstorm warning for where we live. It missed us but the sky was
looking pretty dark for awhile!

  1. I heard you were out there! :) Great pictures! I love the coffee table. The front door...it looks good - just doesn't really pop.
    Crazy weather we're having isn't it. It's been raining/storming almost every evening!
    We're off early in the morning. Talk to you in a couple of weeks!

  2. That's awesome Rae. I'll have to come and see the front door in person...but what i can see from the pic is that like Suzanne said it doesn't really pop.
    That storm was intense hey, i thought it would have been way worse but then just like every other storm it switchs and follows the river just before it hits us....if you talk to the people in Neerlandia it was pretty intense, they had hail the size of baseballs, the big ones even!

  3. Those clouds seriously look like they're going to turn into tornados! freeeaaaky :S

    Love the coffee table and the green door. It doesn't pop, but it sure is unique. Just because it doesn't pop doesn't mean it's not awesome :)
