Busy Beaver! (House Pictures)

I know I've been a bad, bad blogger lately, so I wanted to take some time to show you what a busy beaver I've been. I present the following few exhibits and I apologize that the pictures are so icky. I haven't unpacked my camera so I used my phone and uploaded the pictures to facebook.

The first thing I painted was the bathroom in the basement. I got this color idea in an unusual way. I actually found the swatch under a chair at my old Pier 1. So of course I needed it in my new house to remember my Pier 1 family. I started with the basement to see how it would turn out and if I messed it up it wouldn't be seen that much. ;) It turned out fabulous! The green towels make it kind of tropical. It also flips the green I want to do in the half bath.
Next, is the guest bedroom! This is where we've been sleeping since we moved in. Because it has all of my old furniture in it, it is the closest room in the house to completion. You can see that I re-covered the headboard with a different fabric. It looks and feels so fabulous! I got the lamp with a gift card Sony's mother gave Steven for his graduation and the front pillow I got from Ross with a store credit i got from returning some pillows that didn't work out (Steven is so picky about pillows, you just wouldn't believe it!). I made the body pillow. You can't see it very well but I got some fabulous peony patterned fabric from Hancock fabrics. I used the same color--Spiced Cocoa-- for the accent wall. You can see some blue swatches beside the lamp I'm thinking about for the rest of the room and for the guest bath.
On the other side of the room is the seating area and the painting I did about a month ago.

So now everyone needs to come visit me! hehe.
