Just in time for Christmas

We finally got around to painting the bedroom. With the colder weather people seem to be quite sluggish lately. But we got ourselves in gear and painted away.
Here are some pics of how it looked before
(on a previous post)

That green was the bane of my existence. I would wake up every morning in a bad mood having to look at it. But now...



A happy colour. I've been wanting a bedroom this colour for years.


In fact, this hamper is my inspiration for the colour...





Its hard to tell how nice the colour is on the computer. Though it is girly (that's what my man said "It's girly, but as long as your happy with it."). Its pretty cool during the day, the colour changes on the walls, from a pinky purple to more of a lilac in a darker light.



With that done, I am going to put away the paint brushes (thank God!) and try to finish my Christmas shopping (eek!!! only a week to go)!

After the Storm

This is the view from my living room window last night the storm was just picking up...


This is the view this morning...




Very scary. I thought we were snowed in. But I guess we will be spending the day shoveling. Luckily we don't have to be anywhere today:)
