Finally making progress again

We crossed off House To Do list items like crazy last weekend. In addition to boring-but-important things like fertilizing and de-bugging the yard, buying parts for our broken fence gate, and slowly replacing the 748 can lightbulbs in our home with LED's, I've been working on a couple things in the girls rooms.

Like, making over A's thrift store chair. It looked like this originally,
and after a few coats of paint and new fabric, now looks like this:
She exclaimed "pretty!" when I brought it back up into her room. Sounds like the stamp of approval to me.

Also, her furry friends have new homes, off the floor and out of the way, thanks to three wall-mounted garden baskets. #thankspinterest
She thinks that it's a game that they are up there, so they have all come down and back up again several times in the past 24 hours. Every time she does so, I gasp, thinking that the baskets are going to rip right out of the wall. They are secured with four big wall anchors each, so they aren't going anywhere...I guess we both need to calm down about them. :)
(Colors are off in these pics, took them at night w the flash.)
Me thinks the amnuls look pretty cute up there.

Finally, not related to the girls rooms, but our front door already looks different than it does in these Before pics, and will be even more so after tonight. Dun dun dun.
Can you handle the suspense? ;) #worriedeyes
