I am ever so pleased with the results of the hard work of my good friends the Mamas of the Craft!
The whole living room took about 2 hours and that is including painting the radiators.
My difficult decision now is where to hang up our art.
Should it be in the same places as before, where I have filled the holes left by nails?
Will I have to be creative about picture placement and find a new arrangement?
Time will tell.
On another note, I have finished phase I of the Pre-K backpack.
All that remains is the lining, and I still have a week since Pre-K starts on the 8th!Finally, we have reached a strange time in our lives.
We have finished out our Netflix Queue.
Does anyone have any suggestions of good movies to rent?
I hope everyone elses long weekend is as productive and relaxing as mine has been,
Jess

HELLO JESSICA!
The paint job looks beautiful- what lovely, airy color! As for the Netflix, I have been working my way through "Weeds" and getting current on "Mad Men."
Don't you just lovely freshly painted walls?? They look great - and so does the backpack! As for Netflix, my son has most of his must-sees in there. Once in a while I sneak in and bump hubby's and mine up to the top.(!) Right now we're all about Mad Men. Sooo good!
Jess, what lovely walls you now have! I can't tell from the pix, but do you have a picture rail up in your molding? It's not hard to add, and it would aleviate marring your hard work; it's also really nice when you get the urge to shuffle things around.
As far as your Netflix queue, I loved Helen Mirren in The Queen. Primary Colors (John Travolta, Emma Thompson, Kathy Bates) is one I pull out when feeling a bit politico.
Have the hug-a-bugs ridden the double decker buses yet? Quite fun (and in the rain, would really feel like London!).
Later!
I love the yellow walls. Your house looks so old and pretty. I love the dark wood with the bright yellow. And that backpack is brilliant! Is it made from pink suede? What a lucky little girl! As for the Netflix, we loved Elizabeth Gaskill's North, South and Dickens Bleak House. Happy movie watching!
E is loving the muppet show. If you don't have that already, it's a good option for netflix.
I'm so jealous of that back pack! We just went and bought the cheesy product placements ones. They're so dumb.
Your living room is so gorgeous!!! I like the new spot for the piano - did you totally rearrange?
You finished your netflix queue? I am baffled. Definitely try Mad Men (we loved it) and we're devoted to "The Wire".
See you soon!
