SUYL- Pictures & Curtains

** SO SORRY!! I GOT THE WEEK'S TOPIC MIXED UP ( I HAVEN'T PARTICIPATED IN SUYL FOR  A FEW WEEKS) SO THE FIRST PART IS ON PICTURES AND THEN I ADDED CURTAINS AT THE BOTTOM!!!**

HEY! to all of you visiting from Kelly's Korner and Classy Clutter!!!

Just to give y'all a heads up, we just moved into our house a few weeks ago so I don't have much to share today.  What I do want to show is Natalyn & Elia Rose's 95% completed bathroom!!!

Get ready for several pics as I share my little project that I completed for their bathroom.

I started with 12x12 frames from Hobby Lobby. I got them 85% off a few months ago. (You know when Hobby Lobby has to clear 1/4 of the building to make room for Christmas decor in mid-May!)

 Not only were these frames super cheap, but look at the detail!!!

 I got these wooden letters with my 40% off coupon and yes, I am one of those people that will do separate transactions to get each on sale!!

 Got my spray paint at Wal-mart. Krylon high gloss in Watermelon.

 Then I spray-painted the frames.  At first it was a bit of a war between me and dead grass.  Grass, wet spray paint and a strong south wind don't mix well. I finally just found some empty cardboard boxes in the garage (I had previously had the frames on flat cardboard directly in the ground) and this helped a lot!!!

See how cute the frames are looking!

 Next step was painting 12x12 canvas. I know the paintings look a little weird, but once you see their shower curtain, you will understand.

 Natalyn, my little helper hard at work!!  She painted a canvas that will eventually go in the toy room.  She then moved onto painting cardboard boxes (we have a million few of them around here at this time!)

 After phase I of painting dried, I then traced their first initials on each canvas using the wooden letters.

 Finished product!!!

 I know the pics are hung a little too high on the wall, but I don't want little grubby hands pulling them off the wall (and when I say "little grubby hands," I mean Elerz!!)

 I know the trashcan doesn't match, that's a project for another day!!  (I already warned you that the bathroom was only 95% complete!)                        

** OK.  Why is it that when you need to take a few quick pics that your camera's battery

goes dead!  I charged that sucker for like 3 minutes to get enough power to take these pics.  They aren't very good, but you get the point!**

CURTAINS, CURTAINS, CURTAINS!!!!!

These are our new curtains for the Master Bedroom.  They are grey-blue tweedish fabric.  I am thinking about adding some fabric to the bottom once I finally decide on pillows and throws for the bed ( my original idea turned out awful!!)

 Ignore the mess around the night stands....

 These are Nat's curtains.  We had them in the old house and I am planning to re-do her room once she starts school, so they are staying right now.  They are black-out curtains from Target. ( If anyone out there has any ideas for a rainbow , pink leopard, ladybug, country music , fashion room----LET ME KNOW! (that has been Nat's request.

 I tied a knot in ribbon and cut the back loop and added velcro to use as cutain ties.

 These are Elia's new curtains.  I got them at Wal-mart for $10 each (they are black-out aswell!)

I am also planning to update her room, but plan to keep with the same color scheme she currently has.

 I love me some polka dots!!!!

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY!!!
