Odds and Ends

I haven't blogged in forever! The summer has flown by...I've been busy moving and setting up house, and now the school year is about to begin so I'm also occupied with scheduling music students and checking the mailbox daily for numerous manila envelopes full of orchestra music. I've managed to accomplish a few things around our house...the first project I gave myself was making roman shades for our bedroom. They are finally done (Yay! They were a LOT of work) and we just have to mount them. I had to order a part for them online, so while I waited for it to arrive, I managed to make myself a little summer outfit.























Joann's Fabric just opened a new store on Haywood Rd. and I am loving having another option for sewing supplies!

I am dying to paint our house...we didn't have time to paint before moving in but I'm really glad because it gave me some time to really decide what I wanted to do with each room. I have my paint colors picked out and I've even put samples on the walls. Our living room, hall, and bedroom are going to be a sophisticated grey but I've chosen fun, happy colors for the rest of the house.





















Hopefully I can post pics of my mounted shades soon!
