What a crazy week…my poor little fella has a cold and there is a lot of ‘end of the year’ exhaustion but there also seems to be inspiration blooming everywhere..like this brilliance from Rae at Armommy..hello, this means I no longer have to nicely say “shhh” when someone passes through one of our bedroom doors (the one that has so much “character” it does not sit level..ha!)..thanks Rae!

And these placemats, also by Armommy. Do I even need to explain the cuteness?…I didn’t think so! Read my recent post on Armommy here at Oh My! Handmade Goodness, a great new blog.

And it appears while I am thinking about beadboard, the Nester is thinking about board and batten..love it, tons of great links too..also love her new drapes!  What a great office!

So hang on mamas, school is nearly out and there will be more time to stay home, work on projects and enjoy kids and a relaxed schedule! At least that is my plan…can’t wait!
