Once I get an idea in my head, I can't make it go away. I try sometimes but it's useless. Up until now I've been able to keep my craft hobby relatively confined. Did you catch the "up UNTIL now" part? I have been bitten, super duper, double dog bitten by the home decorating bug.
Have you seen this blog? Or this one? How about this one? Oh, shoot. I'm in such trouble. I love all things DIY and like the challenge of creating for less. Plus, there's just no way in you know where I'm going to pay full price for something I can make or renovate.
Okay, back to the title of this post. My poor husband. He would be perfectly content with leaving well enough alone and doesn't necessarily see the need to gussy things up. Yeah, I see things differently. Did I mention I have a plan for decorating the entire downstairs? Mmm hmm, already laid out on a spreadsheet and everything. I'm sick. But a deliriously giddy, budget-conscious kind of sick.
I'm hoping, praying, and begging that as long as I keep things very cheap frugal, Brad will neither have a heart attack nor divorce me. I'll be sure to let you know the outcome.
Anyway, be sure to stay tuned... I can't wait to show you all the before and after pictures as I spruce up our home! As soon as we get back from New Mexico tomorrow, I am hitting up Lowes. Uh, I mean the grocery store??? Well, after I take my car to be cleaned on the interior. Darn ants.
Oh, Jenny - I think he'll forgive you! Really your just lending the frame for your life together a decorative hand, right? How could he not love you for doing that?! And I'm eager to see the pics as well! :)
