2012 Year Review +WIPs for the Home + Sewing || Last post before the New Year

Seriously long title don't ya think?   It has been a great year!  I feel like I have done a lot, and after looking at these photos, I have done a lot!  I hope to accomplish more in the year 2013, and I hope you will follow along with me on my journey.

WIP for the HOME

We made some Christmas cookies, but unfortunately, most of the dough ended up in Owen's mouth.

  • We are centering our kitchen light over the island during Matt's school break.  
  • We'll also be adding a few can lights in our living room.  That space seriously needs them!  Just look how lonely that lamp is!  




  • Started this little art project for the carport entry area.  I am debating to leave it as is.  This is just a snippet of it.

  • I am still thinking about what art to put above my buffet.  Should I make something or should I find cheap art online?  Nothing I do is speaking to me.  (To see it updated, click here.)


WIP - SEWING

  • Quilt top #5 complete, but I can't quilt it until January.

  • Quilt top #6 complete.  I'm excited to show you the concept of this one!

  • Remember this?  This is finally pieced together.  This will turn into a table runner, but it got pushed aside due to #5 and #6.


My plans for 2013 include redoing my living room and terribly lame bedroom, make a few more quilts, and anything else I fancy.  :)

This is my last post for the year.  Matt does not work next week, and I thought I would just take some time off from the blog, and hopefully, the internet in general.  I need to unplug.  (If I don't respond to emails right away or don't stop by your blog and say hello, that is why.   It's not because I don't love you.  :)

Thank you all for your continuous support and love!  As a way of thanks, I am offering 15% off in my Etsy shop with the code CHRISTMAS15.  Sale ends Jan 1, 2013.

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!  See you in 2013!

peaceout
