The Fun Parts of Saturday

Today I am still suffering from the lingering effects of a nasty migraine.

It was perfectly sunny and beautiful today, but I wisely chose to stay out of the sun.

Sooo...before breakfast THGGM and I went to a new Goodwill store. I found a brand new not-even-opened Klutz book for .49 cents. Happy happy headachy me!

After breakfast with the family we went to our favorite antique mall. I found a fabulous mirror, brush and comb set - originally nicely priced, but on a 50% off sale.

And, I found a clock face, velvet ribbons (think 'little people' adornments) and a package of iron on transfers. That face on the left? Looks like Famke to me.

And, what Saturday would be complete without a trip or two (two) to the hardware store.

This is my latest idea for the little bathroom off of the kitchen. I believe it is at least idea number four.

I peeled the vinyl paper off months ago, and have grown rather fond of the color of the backing that remained.

This color is pretty close to it, so I bought it. I didn't want to scrape off the gluey part due to the high-gloss minty green paint underneath it. Now that I have the paint, soon and very soon I shall attempt to remove it. The dots above were punched out of other paint samples. I want to paint dots on the walls. I approve of the blue and green, but I think I need to keep looking for a better red.

Oh. And I've already started the Maria Montessori book. It was a prelude to a very long nap, which I must have been in need of. While I napped, THGGM moved a lot of furniture around and I never even heard him. He also got more painting done on the outside trim of the house. I do believe that he accomplished all that he set out to do on his vacation.
