Friday...

We survived
(barely)
the first three days of school...
how many more felt?????

The downstairs bathroom is finished
(water leak inside the wall)
new wall,
new floor,
new paint,
dust everywhere....

My Husband an I played tennis...

I didn't know it was possible
for all my muscles to hurt at the same time.

I'm looking forward to the rest of today.
TV,
Coffee
and fabrics...lots of colors...

I see more rosettes in my future!!

After all....

"Weekends don't count
unless you spend them doing something completely pointless"
~Bill Watterson~

So go ahead...
enjoy your weekend and don't forget
to do something completely pointless!!!

Frugal Friday and recycled post!

My house has these niches on the wall...one in the downstairs den

and another one in the master bathroom (before picture not available, but I promise it looked just as ugly!), over the toilette, that for some strange reason the builder thought people will like....
Sorry Mr. Builder, but those niches need help!

I added some fake bead board to the back wall, metal brackets and a shelf, to transform the bathroom niche into a cozy spot to display a pretty collection of vintage bottles...

an old mirrored door to make it look bigger,
an antique framed print...(love the aqua and yellow shade of the wall together!)

and of course, some necessities...

The project cost me under $30, that qualifies it for Frugal Friday...
Easy and inexpensive transformation with lots of cottage charm!
Now, I just have to tackle the one in the den....but first, I will visit all the Frugal Friday Participants at
The Shabby Nest!

AND BECAUSE WE LOVE TO RE-USE, WE ARE RECYCLING THIS POST FROM YESTERDAY AND LINKING IT TO:
MAKEOVER OPEN HOUSE
THANK YOU JEN FOR HOSTING!
(how's that for stretching?????)
