I want to start by saying a little about me (don't worry, I wont go on and on with a lot of boring details) I'm 28 years young and a stay-at-home mom to two wonderful, beautiful, energetic children, Madelyne and Patrick. Madelyne is 3 and Patrick is 2 and I'm lucky to have the time to sit here right now and write this. Seeing as how I stay home with my children I started to find that my days kind of run into each other, the good old "same thing, different day" routine. Well to break up my days I decided to start "little" projects that would keep me happy. What better projects are there than beautifying ones!
I'm a novice DIY'er, but I find great satisfaction in everything I do. When I fail, (it has happened a lot) I buff it out, sand it off and try again!
We bought this old house about 3 years ago. I was about 8 months pregnant with Madelyne so I didn't do much to it at all. All the walls were white, flat paint, that wiped away with a wet rag. Some of the rooms in my house are still like that. I have really only [seriously] painted the kids rooms. I say seriously because the rest of what I have painted wasn't very thought out and wasn't done very well. Now that my youngest is old enough to play nice with his sister I have decided it's time to right all my decorating wrongs. This is my journey to making this old house a beautiful home. Inside and out.
