Hey guys! How's your week been!? Charlie and I have been busy this week. Deciding when to take down Winter themed decor and pack up the snowmen always seems like such a hard decision! Please tell me I'm not alone!?!? I'm slowly pulling it all down and replacing it with all the hearts and roses and Valentine's Day Stuff. When do y'all take down your Winter things???
We have been working on our hallway and photo gallery wall for what seems like months now! At least pics of my sweet baby Paisley will never go out of season! So we'll get right to it.....
Say hello to our ugly hallway "before"...
Boring. Plain. Tan. Empty Frame. Blah.
Boring. Plain. Tan. Empty Frame. Blah.
Now, say hello to my big mistake...
Helpful hint: ALWAYS make sure you check to see if you need to buy glossy, semi-gloss, flat, etc.
OK, let's just go back to that for a second....do you see that huge splotch of miscolored paint!?!? How embarrassing!
Fresh paint...ahhhhh
Level and mark...
Tape it off....
Paint between the lines...
BE PATIENT!!! Let it dry overnight, then pull.
Now, stand back and admire...
Hellooooo STRIPES!
I've admired zillions of photo gallery walls on Pinterest and had big dreams of creating our own. Especially since Miss Paisley joined us.
Our house is pretty open. You can see this hallway from just about anywhere, so it's the perfect place for our very own photo gallery wall and it's safe to say this is our new focal point!
Ready, set, cue image overload....
This "E" came from the Nashville Flea Market. It was royal blue when we bought it! It came from an old business sign. I like to imagine what kind of business it came from...or what city it once looked over...
Our amazing family photographer, Nichole at Whimsey Photography took the majority of these beautiful pictures.
We wanted a mixture of frames and textures so we decided to make our own canvas prints.
