No Weather Report-I Promise

 

I had to start my post with a promise that I would not be informing you of the local weather report here today.

It seems to have become my favourite subject of late!

So sorry about that, ladies.

 

Instead I'll talk about some happenings in my life that I've forgotten to mention to you.

Starting first with my kitchen corner redo...

 

 You see, I know just how much more exciting it is to you to know about my little furniture rearranging in the kitchen than it is to hear about how slowly the snow is melting in my back yard. Ha!

Well, it's definitely more exciting to me at least.

You might remember that I had this small china cabinet here before, but it is now moved into the spare bedroom were it has become a blanket cabinet.

Yes, it's true.

That photo will follow later.

I also forgot to tell you that I started work on painting my bathroom cabinets last week.

Whew, was that a job!

 

I first sanded the cabinet surfaces. Then I washed them down. After they were dry I painted the cabinets with primer. And lastly, I applied three coats of paint to the surface. I still need to go back and apply another coat in some places. So not quite lastly yet!

Of course by the time I got to the second coat and realised this wasn't doing the job, I remembered I'd read somewhere (Pinterest, no doubt) that you should mix a bit of your paint colour with your primer to avoid having to apply so many coats over the bright white surface.

As always, a day late and a dollar short!

 

I spent today gathering ideas for a new bag that I want to sew as soon as my bathroom project is finished.

All of the bags are styled very similar and each one has great tutorials to follow.

So what do you think?

Which one would you choose?

Happy Monday All!
