Cam's Column

Welcome to  My New Weekly column.
 Not sure if my title is cheesy, but I'm going with it for now.  I thought I would start off with a room makeover.   We moved into our house in 2005 and have painted half of the rooms, except for my daughters.  She just turned 11 and wanted a bedroom makeover and informed us that her room was the only bedroom not painted. So guess what color she picked?  PURPLE!  She found a bedspread she really liked and we went from there.  My hubby was thrilled we were going to spend all weekend painting a purple room. 

Here is her room before the fun begin. (I wish I would have taken a picture before we took everything down, ohh well)

Here is a picture of the walls patched and ready to be painted.  BORING

The kiddos both decided they needed to be apart of the painting!  (The one not pictured is 4)  Just get a visual for a moment of him helping.  haha

The wall is finally purple!!!  Time to decorate the room now.

                                   The bedding and the walls look really good together. (even if your not a huge fan of purple)

This is what the walls really look like.  (taken with my cell phone)  She found this Marilyn Monroe poster and I framed it for her. 

Ohh look it is Justin all over her door  (I remember when I used to tear posters out of my Teen Bop) You know you did too.

I think it turned out great and she loves it so that is all that matters.  I will wrap it up with a picture of my cute Harley dog. (he helped paint too)

Wish I knew how to make a signature.  Does anyone know how?

Something New

We have been thinking of ways that we can be more vocal and not just talk about our crosses (boring).  Not only do we have full time jobs, make crosses on the side, and have families, but we also like to re-do furniture, update rooms, have parties, hang with our friends, get in shape or just like to talk.  So we have decided that we will each have our own day that we will just talk or show you whatever we want.  We are trying to be cutesy and come up with  names for our day. ha  So stop back by on Tuesday to see our first post from Camie.

New Frames

We are so Excited about our new Frames.  They are fun, bright, and whimsical!!  They will be available for purchase soon.  We will have 2 different sizes to start with.  8x10 and 11x14 picture size.   The frames have 2 keyholes on the back so can be hung landscape or portrait.  We would love to have some feedback on colors.  What colors would you buy????


                            Here are just a couple of our designs! (and yes my hubby was real  thrilled to know his face was all over the Internet)

Love checking the mailbox!

Well today I (Camie) had to run home at lunch to let my sweet bassett hound Harley out and while I was there I checked my mail and I am soooooo glad I did!  I opened the mailbox and the most beautiful thing was in there.  I have been waiting patiently for this little beauty!

Look how pretty the packaging is!! A bow and everything!

                                                                    And it's just as pretty inside the box!

                                                                                I love it! (Maybe not with my scrub top)

This beautiful piece was made by {Starfish}!      http://www.starfishblog.com/  She does great work and has some really pretty jewelry.
