...and it's sinful to have a Monster so awesome and handy!
can you even believe the transformation? Monster totally rocks.
Laundry Room:
Paint: Accent Wall: Glidden Orange Slice Paint Walls: Dunn Edwards Silver Spoon
OMG, never EVER ever buy Gildden. We got the paint sample - the quart, that they sent to persuade everyone to buy their paint? Devin cursed them the whole time he was painting, and then when he was done painting and putting up cabinets, the three coats of Glidden came off with just a nudge of his thumb. And they were NOT wet. They'd been drying for five days already.
Light: Ikea FUGA light - 2 halogen bulbs. It's hot, but totally fun. But I think a fun chandelier in that room could take it from Mid-Century Modern to Hollywood Glam in a hurry.
Cabinets: These are HANDMADE by the Monster himself. Kinda totally awesome, right? He took two sheets of walnut plywood and turned them into euro-style awesome in a matter of days. AND! He picked out the pulls, and did a really good job at that, methinks. Shelves too.
Basket: Locker Basket from Fry's Marketplace. I have these in the office, but it's not ready to show off yet.
Socks: Years of mismatches, I tell you. Years. But somehow, I always seem to find a match three years later to a favorite sock, so it seems worth it.
yeah, that's totes some popcorn scraping and holy hannah painting and a super fun light selection from me.
Nursery
Paint: Milk Mustache by Dunn Edwards. The whole room, even the ceiling.
Light: Indoor 4-Light Chrome And Crystal Flushmount Chandelier from Overstock.
Night Stand: Garage Sale! (and matching dresser you can't see and mirror)
Bed: Devin's mom bought it for us way back when we were thinking we were going to sell the other house.
Clock: Tawnya saw it at Target and picked it up for $2.00 for me. 'Twas a stroke of awesome, I tell you.
Bedding: A target clearance thing... Though I am going in a different direction now. For sure.

Website of the Week: Tigress in A Jam. It's a canning blog that I've really been enjoying. A lot. So fantastic I tell you! I especially loved the Can Jam challenge that she did last year - it was super great, and super awesome, and I love looking back at the links and finding new recipes to try from the litany of ones people submitted!
