Da yard

My mom was suppose to do the front retaining wall as my 'house warming present'. That didn't happen. Then Holly was going to take it over, but nearly 200 feet of weeds and unsettled soil hindered her. However, the wall needed to be done. Knowing it would take a few years for the plants to add curb appeal, I had to start this year.

This lead me to think: who do I know that knows enough about plants, but can keep me in line. Auntie Shelly! Shelly has an amazing way of keeping me in line. She has this strange thing where she makes me clean up after a project is over. I fight, but in the end, I feel a lot better.

It was a big task, but Shelly had a couple days off. This was the start:

Hotdog!

Holly and I were sitting in the back yard when we say a small bunny. He was eating a small daisy. It was super cute.

He was a very small bunny. His mother probably died and left him to fend for himself. He sat in the back yard and ate daisys. He would start at the stem and nom until the flower hit his mouth, then he stopped.

This week in Art

With the new room, I had to find things to put on the walls. I believe that the art on a wall makes the room complete.

I already put most of the pictures I already owned on the walls in my house so I had to find new pictures. It was late and I knew I wouldn't find what I really wanted. On one of the walls I put my dad's first violin. It looks antique, but it is not. He bought it at a garage sale and still had nail polish marks for finger placements.

I just needed something for above my bed. I always have more fabric then the average bear so I used it as a canvas. Yes, it is not high art, but it adds the balance needed for the bedroom.

I moved

I got really sick of my bedroom. When I moved in I took the master bedroom as my bedroom. I removed the closet thinking I would replace it in a timely manner. Then I thought I would put in new flooring and molding. However, I failed to do any of that. I wanted to, but then I came up with new ideas for the room. A master bedroom is a selling point and I don't want it to be a room I would just like.

I bit the bullet and moved. I decided on the smaller craftroom because it had a closet and finished floors. It was a great idea!

First, I had to repaint. I thought it would look good to paint vertical strips on the far wall. That ended up looking very bad. The only other thing I had to do was move everything from the old room to the new. It sucked, but when it was done, the room ended up looking great!

I love my new room! It is great! Small, but great.
