Lately.........
I've been attached to my sewing machine.
I've made about 2,849 pillows........
a crib sheet (out of this Alexander Henry fabric)..........
and a slipcover for our ottoman.
(I'm waiting for some sunshine to take some decent photos of the rest of the living room.)
I still need to make two duvet covers for Jude and Phin's beds and then the sewing machine can get put away.
This late in the game (31 weeks) pretty much anything and everything is knock down, drag out exhausting for me. However, it's a mad dash to get everything done before I go into labor and with my history that could be sooner rather than later. I can't believe how quickly this pregnancy has gone by and that we'll be holding sweet baby boy # 3 in as little as six weeks!! Speaking of that sweet baby, his nursery is almost finished. I'm just waiting on one last piece of art.
This awesome photo taken by my Aunt.
I have a pretty sweet framing situation for it too.
Happy Friday, hope you all have a great weekend!

Help!
For the last few weeks I've been going back and forth on my paint choice for our bedroom.
Just to remind you this is what we have going on in our very small bedroom.
The abstracts on either side of the bed will be changed out for some vintage chinoiserie prints and the headboard still needs nailhead trim.
Mr. Brown nightstand has since been painted this color (Rustoleum Gloss smoke gray)
Opposite the bed we have this situation............told you this room was small!
The above mirror has been swapped out for this painting.............
These fabrics are also in the mix.....David Hicks large scale print will be curtains, ochre floral (much prettier in person!) is a long bolster and gray ikat is a small pillow.
Originally I was planning on a pale pink for the walls..........like these.
But lately I've been wondering should I go dark(er) instead?
The last two photos are close to where I'd be going if I chose something darker...an inky green charcoal gray.
If I did something darker on the walls I'd paint the trim (and the closet doors) the same color like the bedroom (by AB Chao) above. The dresser would be painted either the same as the nightstand (Rustoleum smoke gray) or high gloss white or black.
If I decide to go with the light pink the dresser will definitely be painted high gloss black.
So what do you think, light or dark or neither or both or any other combo of the two????
