Is it any wonder I have paint in my hair?

It has long been said I'd paint anything that doesn't move. This week, I may have painted a moving thing or two, if it happened to get in my way.

Since I last posted, I have painted~

the hall (white)

one chair (gray)

one coffee table (creamy white)

one  buffet/tv cabinet (duck egg blue/green)

one dresser  (pale gray)

one hutch (pale gray)

one chandelier (not quite finished with this one but I'm going for a chalky zinc look)

Speaking of chandeliers, did you notice the birdcage light up there?  I had a birdcage. I wanted a new light for the newly painted hall. A pendant light kit from Lowes, and a little wire and I came up with a super easy, pretty darn cute light for my hall for under twenty dollars. 

I'll post with more details later. I need to go wash some paint out of my hair, and off my toes. And elbows. I'm a messy painter.

It looks beautiful - and I wouldn't be surprised if designers from Pottery Barn steal your chandelier idea - it's so brilliant!

Wow! you have been one busy lady. In our family it's my husband that usually has the paint all over him. Jackie

Thank you Amber!

[Denise Fahr]

Wow! I love that birdcage idea! I would have never thought of doing that but it look awesome!

[Jenny Limb]

You are fabulous! You make me want to jump up and paint everything!

[jen @ tatertots and jello]

Wow - you have been busy!! Everything looks great. I LOVE that birdcage light. Darling!!! I had to laugh when I saw the title of your post. My whole head was white on Saturday. I was spraypainting everything in sight in my backyard and it was windy -- I was a mess!

Snap! We've been painting too. I love how very clean everything feels right after. And your house is looking glorious.

I LOVE the finished living room (with the complete IKEA sofa) I cant believe you have already changed what is hanging over the couch...wait a minute...yes I can =) Hope you guys make it Friday night, I want you to see Hailey's room.

Thank you Denise. I like the shadows it casts on the walls.

Thank you Jenny. Not sure what came over me, but I have to ride the wave when it comes : )

Hi Jen,
Love me some white spray paint. Its a staple around here, like toilet paper and paper towels. You always have to keep at least one can on hand for those emergency spray painting urges : )

[Autum]

Thank you Ali. I love the clean fresh feel after painting too, although my garage isnt looking too fresh and clean right now with all the painting paraphernalia I have piled up.

Hey Jess,
I took down the frames to put up the beadboard and was waiting to put them back until I get the trim piece up. Im not sure I will put them back now though.
Im pretty sure Alyssa is working Friday night, but Bayleigh and I will be there. What would Miss Hailey Bug like for her birthday?

Have a great day ~ Deb

I think I like it better w/o the frames too. I really need you to come spend the day in my living room!! (seriously)
Alyssa called today and Hailey said she wants something Hello Kitty =) See ya Friday!

[Autum]

We went to wallyworld tonight and got the Hello Kitty : )  See you Friday.
And congratulations on your news today!!!! Do you have a girls name picked out yet?

[Leah Rodrigue]

I LOVE that bird cage light. A white one would be darling over my daughters reading chair.

[Cris @ Mom. Nonstop.]

That is gorgeous! I love the shadows it creates!

[KasiaJ]

Ha! I'm a messy painter, too. I love your birdcage light!

[Autum]

Hi Leah,
Thanks! It was so easy to do and I think a white one would be really sweet in a girls room.

[Autum]

Thank you Chris. Me too : )

Have a wonderful weekend!
