I can tell the first trimester blahs are getting close to being over. I’m starting to brainstorm creative ideas.
And today, for the first time in over six weeks, I actually got to my sewing machine and started creating. Of course, I had to have an afternoon nap first and then clear out the mass of stuff that had accumulated on and around my craft area the past six weeks. But, I got there and got in some quality time with my machines. It does a heart good.
During my brainstorming and nausea and “restricted activity” and Zoe’s bought with a virus (thankfully, not strep but two more times and those tonsils are gone!), I also watched HGTV Design Star. That just made me crave a big project (well, that and pregnancy always seems to bring a big project).
So, my next big project is going to be our china cabinet.
Mark and I found it about two to three years ago at a used furniture store. I love it. But, it’s stained. And nothing is stained in my kitchen. Well, the floors are but that doesn’t count. So, it kind of just sticks out like a big brown box on my wall near the dining room table.
So, thanks to Pinterest, I’ve put together what I’m going to do to overhaul the china cabinet.
First, paint. My dad is going to flip but it’s paint or nothing…and here’s what it will look like:
That sounds amazing!
