R.I.P. Wallpaper pt.1

Hey guys!

Yesterday was a super productive day - I stripped wallpaper from the bathroom and painted AND I went to see Django, WHICH YOU ALL MUST DO.

SO GOOD.

Anyway, here's the before and afters....

EW. wallpaper.

De-wallpapered and de-glued, and two coats of primer and two coats of paint later...

Ain't she pretty? :)

Christmas Ornaments!

I asked Lisa to pick up some colored plain ornaments for me at Michael's on her way to my place on Friday.

As usual, Lisa picked up exactly the opposite of what I asked for. In this case, she got those see-through glass ornaments. And I was like, "Damn it Lisa!!!"

But, as usual, it turned out to be better than originally planned because I turned them into colorful works of art of my own.  My mom did this a few years ago, and I took her idea. I like mine more though, because I am biased.

See? I put some drops of acrylic paint in them and added a few drops of water and swished them around, and now they look like Marbles!

and for these I diluted some glue in water and dipped them in, and then dipped them in this flaky snow stuff I got from Michael's and now they look all frosty! Almost good enough to eat! :P

So, in conclusion, thank you Lisa for never listening to my actual requests. You make life more interesting. <3
