Project Nursery Part 1

Project nursery is under way in the Reichert house. We have three guest bedrooms and picking out which room would be the nursery was hard! I finally decided on which room we would use and got to work!

Before…..

 

 

 I LOVE the board and batten look in this nursery that I found on pinterest.

My hubby was a little worried at first because he had never heard of board and batten, but after a quick pep talk from my brother who is in construction he was ready to go.

 First stop was Lowes to buy the materials. We bought everything we needed for under $100!!! SCORE!

 Next it was time to measure, cut,  hang and paint. I had to stay out of the room because I was voicing my opinion too much that day! These pregnancy hormones make me crazy sometimes!

 

Sorry the image quality is not great! All of these photos were taken with my iphone.

Stay tunned…more to come!

 

 

 

 

MIA part 2

Hey guys its me again, and I need to apologize again! I have been MIA but for many good reasons. More on that in later posts.

About a month ago I bought new pillows for our master bedroom. I noticed that our bedside lamps which were a sliver color, needed some sprucing up so I went to my handy can of spray paint and got to work.

Much much better!!!!

My hubby always makes fun of me and says every weekend I have off from a wedding is another weekend for a new home project. YEP!!!! Last weekend I put him to work in one of our guest bedrooms. I found a photo on pinterest of board and batten and I fell in LOVE!!!! I decided that we needed to hang board in batten in our neglected guest bedroom so we got to work!!!! Stay tuned for our progress and photos.

Taking the day off

Today I decided to take the day off from work and do some much needed spring summer cleaning. I started with laundry, then I vacuumed, mopped, more laundry, swept and then ate lunch. It’s amazing how cleaning can make you exhausted!

I did have to run into the office really fast to fill some print orders, and then I swung by the grocery store.

When I got home I got the itch to declutter!!! I started to feel overwhelmed every time I opened one of the closets in the guest bedrooms. So, I decluttered and took a car load to the Goodwill. My hubby always says I buy WAY to many pillows. What can I say, I am pillow obsessed! I just love mixing and matching pillows, and when I find a new one, I trade it out for the old. I dropped off 8 pillows to the Goodwill. Someone is going to be very happy!

After Goodwill, I couldn’t help but to swing by my absolute favorite store TJ Maxx to see if there was anything I just had to have! Well, there was of course!

I bought two of these beauties….ahhh my hubby is going to kill me.

I am in the process of making over our master bedroom, and these two pillows gave our bed the pop of color that it was missing.

Oh and a few weeks ago I nabbed these gorgeous rugs from Target…my second favorite store! 

Sorry for the blurry image! Shame on me for not using my professional camera…I was using my cheap point and shoot because its easier to upload to my laptop.  

I have been slowly giving our home a makeover. Our home use to be reds, greens, and browns. I am now going for a more neutral look with khaki’s, browns, and blues.

Next I painted the bead board that B hung yesterday! It looks fabulous! I am so happy with the way this project turned out! You can see the before photos here.

Here she is all painted and looking fab!!!

 

 

After I finish this post I plan on spray painting the base’s of the lamps in our master bedroom. Right now they are silver, but I think I will spray paint them white….photos to come!
