Week 2: (The Bright Bathroom)

Week two of summer accomplishments ~


I finished on Saturday this time! :)


Over the last six months, I have had curtain material that matched the shower curtain for the girl's bathroom, but I kept putting it off for this summer. So, finally today the curtain was hung along with the black flower plaques. Our bathroom is officially done now. :) We got these baskets (above) very reasonably on Black Friday & so have our lotions, hair bands, body sponges, and clips sorted between them.
We really wanted our bathroom is be simple, girlie & bright. Mom came up with the wonderful idea of painting the walls blue & then each having our own color towel ~ I have pink, Livy has green & Rosy has blue. Then we have yellow and orange for when friends come. (Today is washing day, so half the towels are gone. :D)

Strawberries season is here! We went picking Thursday morning...such fun! Some friends joined us as well!

Look very closely in her sunglasses! (above) I did not realize Livy was there until I uploaded this picture to my computer...too cute. I believe they were having a strawberry eating contest at this point... :)





We always go to the same strawberry picking farm. The dear old man that owns the farm loves having children (and adults!) eat his strawberries while picking them. Which makes it about 20-times more fun! :)

The bathroom is beautiful!!!! It is so cheerful! How did you find fabric that exactly matched your shower curtain???

By the way, THANK YOU SO MUCH for all of your hard work at the UBS!!! You were really my "right hand woman" ;o) and were such a huge encouragement to me.

Love,
Joanna

Hey! I started working on Saturday! ...Does that count? :) You can see that doing this was a good idea... Even though you're only 2 weeks into it! If you stick eith it, you're going to be a lot happier that you actually accomplished alot that you were thinking about doing. :)

Btw, I've been working behind-the-scenes on my film throughout both of these weeks besides working for Classic Canopies... Fun! But yeah, I can't really post too much about my film (That nobody's going to watch) so people don't know what happens... Keep it exciting for those who do maybe see it. :D
