Giddy Up~Cowgirl Party

 I finally have gotten around to getting all the pics from the Epic Cowgirl Party for my girls.
 My two girls birthdays are 1 week apart so being it was my youngest (Audrey's) 1 year old birthday and my middle child (Abigail's) 3rd birthday, we decided to have an epic party. This party took us about 2 months of planning and crafting to come together but it was well worth it. I couldn't have done this party without my partners in crime, Aprill and Angi. Thats all of us below..


So when we were researching this epic party idea, we knew we didn't want to but cheesy decorations but make everything ourselves. Yes, pretty much die hards. What we didn't realize is how crazy we were and that we had endless ideas that kept growing and growing. We did everything from a photo booth to cow pies and everything in between. Take a look below for some real fun pics. Enjoy!!!

Coral Coral Coral

 Have you ever found yourself loving one color for a season and almost everything you do has that color in it. For the longest time it was Red for me, than Aqua and now CORAL.

I decided with the new move to the new house ( which by the way is totally God hooking us up, I still pinch myself daily) that I would re-do my bedroom. I can't seem to stick with a style for longer than a year. A year is really pushing it but whats a girl to do.

I scored these awesome night stands for FREE and of course couldn't wait to bust out the milk paint and paint them, your guessed it, Coral! Now Aprill would testify that my painting skills are.... Well... Not the greatest but with milk paint, it makes me look like a GENIUS. Really I am not:)

Anywho, normally you would have to sand a piece of furniture because of the lacquer that is on it to make sure the paint sticks BUT with milk paint it requires NO SANDING!!! Awesome! As a busy mom of three any downtime I have has to be super focused and easy to get stuff done or it's just not happening.

Milk paint not only helps everything stick but it makes it super easy to distress a piece of furniture. I never was a huge fan of shabby chic until I discovered doing it with bold fun colors and not just vintage roses and white paint. Distressing now has somewhat become an addiction as I am discovering the more I distress a piece of furniture the more I LOVE it.

Below is the the before and after.. My before shot is not the greatest as often I get going and forget to take a before picture.


Now come over and DIY with me!

Blessings,

Chevron Print

I don't know about you but I am ADDICTED to chevron print! Work has been so busy so my DIY days have been limited. We just moved into a new house so of course there are a million DIY projects that I need to accomplish. I started off with my living room since that is where we entertain the most. For everyone who knows me personally, anything that doesn't have a place gets shoved into my hubby and I's bedroom because who is going to look in there?! Unfortunately that is the room that needs the most love and yet I still haven't gotten to it. So be on the look out for a Master Bedroom ReDO.

It's amazing what you can do with a couch you have had for a while; you can make it so fresh and inviting again. Take a look below and go buy some CHEVRON!!!

Choose DIY

This weekend all three of us were in one place. You know what that means
 CRAFTING OBSESSION CREEPINESS. It was many nights of lack of sleep, lots of giggles and of course crazy crafting. The kind of weekend where you plan way more than you can possibly do and you quit half way through because the few hours of sleep outweigh the thrill of creating something cute.

What brought us all together you ask? My daughters Abigail & Audrey's extravagant birthday party.
For the past few months we have been planning a party of a century, a giddy up, rutin tuttin COWGIRL party. The party will be a completely different blog but for now I will just highlight the awesome weekend.

All I can say is DIY brings so much joy and tons of laughter. Choose DIY and do it with your friends. Your life will never be the same:)

See below for some fun photos...

                                                                          That's Us:)

                                                           That Table is Pretty Clean:)
