Robin Day Photography

We have been having family pictures with Robin Day since Lane was a baby. And she will be the only photographer I ever use. Matter of fact if I could re do our wedding photos I would. Photography has come so far in almost 9 years. So here is a sneak pic of some of our wonderful photos from our latest session! Thank you Robin Day for capturing moments to have forever.

Fav weekend pins!

I find Pinterest sooooo calming ( you can find me here ) I could pin for hours. It takes my mind off whatever is going on around me...and lets me pretend I'm either filthy stinking rich or on an island some place...Maybe my own island?!

"No, I don't have time to organize that closet. I'm too busy pinning organization ideas on Pinterest." ;)

BUT, I feel like I have came across some really cute stuff this past week on Pinterest and at our GCN (Girls Craft Night) we made a super cute craft we found on Pinterest

1. This is the original photo from Pinterest. It actually has NO link tho ( don't you hate that?!) Anyways. We bought our letters from Micheal's for $10.00 total. Already had Chevron painters tape made by Frog found at Lowes. Then we just painted it with basic craft paint. And distressed with Martha Stewart stain also found at Micheal's. 


Frog Tape Shape Tape- oh my gosh, where has this been?! (It's new..) Tape that's already cut into some patterns- chevron, wave, and scallop. Perfect!
Chevron letters

Heres ours-




2. I LOVE THIS! Has anyone tried anything like this??? Heres the original source from the Pin- Wood Transfer

Wood Transfer Tutorial. Oh my goodness, this is gorgeous!

3. I'm obsessed with the top wall. We need to re do behind our couch badly. And the stairs. But I have never found anything I LOVE. Original Pin

Gallery walls and layouts

4. And EVERYONE needs this. I mean for real!

And simply because this was my favorite quote I found this past week! 

I need to remember this because I struggle forgiving  myself for my mistakes.

Mail Pouch



If your offended by dead animals this post is not for you. 


Hubs needed a man area now that the basement is done and Moms settled! He desperately wanted to recreate the famous mail pouch tobacco barn sign. 




And who am I to tell him no? He works so hard for us and our home. Not to mention he's a pretty good decorator and damned good painter. 

Ok, wall was a tan color. This was the former office. Now painted in valspar from lowes. It was really important to him stick with the national historic preservation colors. I need to double check but I think this is our color. 






Next he added a big black square! If I taped this it most likely would be a octagon or something horrific! 







Ok now time to start stenciling!! Ps- I didn't do anything but clean.







His idea this whole time has been to cover the actual wall with his deer heads. 

We love the way it turned out! 

Ta da! 


Here she is in all her glory! 
Obsessed much? Ha! However he deserves his own thing and this room is perfect! 




As the room finishes I'll add more pics! 

Now to finish my new office! Maybe I'll display my purses?! Ha!
