OPAM-december

Between taking down my fall decorations, replacing them with Christmas ones, buying and wrapping presents and processing print orders I didn't have time for a true OPAM in December, but I did make some fun decor and thought you might enjoy it. Maybe you can save an idea or two for next year! I love wreathes-and when…

OPAM-november

I have to admit that this project technically took longer than a month. It started a while back when I saw a cute underwear wall decal on the Red Velvet Art website and thought it would be really funny in our master bathroom. They didn’t have the colors I wanted though, so I traced the decal and…

thankful muffins with mustaches

I got these super cute cupcake toppers from Elsie Flannigan's blog . I didn't want cupcakes though, so I put them on apple cinnamon muffins-yummo! We wrote things we're thankful for on the thought bubbles. And the mustaches are so funny. :)   I couldn't put all my blessings on the cards, so here's a…

OPAM-october

I was an OPAM slacker during October. We were out of town several times and just busy-excuses, excuses! But I couldn’t completely abandon my to-do list, so this month I went for quick and easy. That seems to be a recurring theme, doesn’t it? But you just wait for my November project, okay?! You’ll be…

November 12, 2009 - 2:50 am

Rachel Newbauer - Okay, so first thing is that I LOVE this! Your dining room is AMAZING!!! Secondly, I love your comment about the "Queen" because Rob always says that to me concerning the amount of china and crystal that I have…I tell him it's just a southern thing :) And third, I stole your idea of painting the panels on the closet doors – Julian's are now bright red :) Just a little splash of color :) Hope you are well!

November 12, 2009 - 2:33 am

Julianne - We have been looking for buffet/china cabinet to match our dining room too. I need to put my "Lyndsay creative cap" on and search craigslist and places like that for things that I can re-do and make match rather than trying to find it already perfect! Looks great!

November 12, 2009 - 1:50 am

Christy - Ok, this is my favorite! I LOVE seeing your projects every month. It always reminds me that I need to get off my butt and do something, too. :)
