I just love that color. If I had a cubbyhole, I would climb into it about now. Good hiding place. LOL. Thanks for the sneak peak. I love your room. I envy that you are talented enough to do it yourself. Great job, my friend. HUGS♥♥

I also have an attic room with the slanted ceilings, (which you loose a lot of workable space with). How tall are your short walls? I am really excited about seeing your pictures. Looking for ideas for my own. Thanks so much

Hi LAB55, I found your room through Debbie and I love it. I see all kinds of ideas that could happen in this space. You have done a great job!! Looking forward to going to the finish with you. Beware of the heat. It is so bad here, no one is even going outside.

We have had a few pleasent days, but the humidity today is a little bad, but the fans are doing a good job.
We are to get up in the 90's again, I knoe that isn't really hot for yous that are mid West & South, here in the Mountain of Maryland, it is like what we get in August.
I think Mother Nature is having sever HOT FLASHES LOL

Still have to put every thing back & mount my lights.
The pink was too dark so lightened it using sponge & brush

Tried to do some flowers, still needs a little detailing

Thank you !! I will start over the weekend. Need to weed the small garden in the morning. I did the front flower beds & planted a few more flowers in them.

Thank you !!

It will take a little getting use to, with the different layout. It had been the other way for 5 years. I know where everything is, but it is still different.

Get some rest & I'll catch you tomorrow. DH will be home from work in a little & we will call it a night.

(((((( HUGS ))))))

I going to take a few days to catch up my other things that I kind of slacked on. Some weeding,cut grass & straighten up around the house. LOL
I have a lady bring some fabric to make some capris & some mending I have. Than I will put the boarder on my Hawiian quilt top & some blocks I already have cut.

It is hard to believe it only took me about 20 days. :roll:

I would have to get a passport, I have never had one. Unless I sneak across the border, & with my luck I would get caught. LOL

Just take one area of the room at a time. I know easier said than done LOL
