Room Update

Hello,Okay...I know...again my blog has been neglected but for good reason. My room is finally finished. My last update mentioned that my hubby went out and got me 2 sets of storage cubes since then allot as changed. This month I decided I want a color change. If you know my husband you know that he hates hearing me say those words. I went from I light pink to a dark pink called First kiss. I not only picked it because of the color but the name alone was to cute to pass up. I thought that since the paint had primer in, plus was being painted over pink it would be easy to cover. Think again.... a second trip to Lowe's and another gallon finally did the trick. My husbands uncle was willing to make me a countertop and laminate my old one. I thought that was great. I could pick out my own laminate to go in my room. I had no idea there were that many different laminates. The array was crazy. Finally I settled on black. While at Lowe's I picked up 2 stools, 2 wall cabinets and 3 wall shelves. Now the fun has begun.My husband, father-in-law and husbands uncle worked and finally got everything hung. I couldn't find curtains any where so I headed to Jo-Ann's Fabric and found the best fabric that fit my room perfectly. I passed the fabric onto my boss who id a fantastic job sewing me some valances. Those got hung tonight. Now my room is complete and ready for some crafting.
