Over the past week - my mom's been visiting a lot. I'm glad to have her over. I think she was in a spring cleaning mood. And boy did my house need it! So we started cleaning - rearranging - hanging. Few hours later - looks like a new home!
On to shopping for stuff nothing in particular, just stuff for the house. Of course - when I want to spend money I can't find stuff I like and when I don't have money - I like everything I see! But I did find a nice ivy for the top of the entertainment center. I was searching for a metal plaque for the entryway (something that doesn't cost a fortune.) I'm still looking. I found a nice ficus and am in the process of searching for a park bench that is inexpensive.
This weekend is the princess's b-day - We'll be fixing up her room too. Repainting - I'm thinking yellow. Right now it's bubble gum pink (I hate it). I already purchased a new comforter - very whimsical. And a dressy one - white eyelet bed in a bag. $29 bucks - it was a steal. She says she doesn't like yellow. Eventhough it's her birthday, she's gonna lose this one! I've always wanted her to have a yellow room. I think it is so happy, fresh and cottage-like! I plan to take down the disney princess decor and move to a more "big girl" cottage type theme. Flowers, butterflys and hearts.
The prince's b-day is coming up in less than 2 months - so we plan to paint his room at the same time. His will be blue, of course. I really hate red, so blue will have to do to coordinate with Spidey.
