I am launching this blog, and sticking to it! Ecpecially now that things are really happening! The countdown till "THE BIG DAY" is officially at 152 and let me tell you, it goes by fast! We looked at eachother last night and realized we have been engaged six months, and although I feel like planning has totally invaded every single aspect of my life, we have almost nothing done.
The vision though! That is really something. It's all worked out in my head, now if I could just get my future husband, my mother and our finances to agree with me!
Slow down Jessica, you're getting ahead of yourself!
First things first. Getting married. Check. House. Check. Well, in 98 days actually. Where we currently live looks like an antique store and a home depot ran into one another at high speeds! There are decorative elements, half-done furniture, holiday decor, paint, books and tools everywhere. Not to mention the everyday mess that two people and a puppy make! I could use an extra set of hands, or two, or maybe three. But here's to wishful thinking...
So where we stand is here: We have this wedding to finish figurin' out, and start packing! And then we have our little projects we are trying to complete.
1. Entryway. Refinished an old bench of mine from when I was a kid. Bought barn star hooks for each side, and the fabric to make a cushion. All that's left are two pillows, and the big window pane mirror to hang above it.
2. Dining room table. My mother's table, 6 chairs, and 2 bar stools. Sanding, stripping, staining, and painting. It is going to be beautiful, now I just need the perfect centerpiece.
3. Desk, chair, and side table. Buying them today and refinishing them as well! I love my little eclectic pieces!
Okay, check back in tomorrow to see my pet projects in progress!
