Yes, Master! (Bedroom, that is!)

 
Here's the very first before picture of our master bedroom before we moved in! :) 
 
 
 
You can see the crazy changes this room has gone through here
 
 
And here's the design board I put together for our new space!


 
 
We are slowly getting there, and I can't wait to share the 'before' and 'after, after, after' pics! ;)
 
What do you guys think?  Color overload or much improved? :)

Chalk Art

Have you all seen the chalkboard art that seems to be popping up everywhere?  I've been thinking about making a DIY chalkboard menu for our kitchen.  Something like this, maybe?
 



I've recently seen some awesome examples of just how cool chalk art can be.
I mean, how gorgeous is this custom chalkboard art by Dana Tanamachi?  Amazing!  I would love to hire her to do one for us, but I'm guessing she's a little out of our price range.  Oh well, I'll just drool over her work anyway! :)




I found this print on Etsy that I thought was adorable.  You can actually customize it with your own family name and recipe.  And it's only $35 for an 11x14 print.  Not too shabby! :)




And one of my favorite Etsy shops recently came out with this adorable chalkboard invitation.  $15?  I think so! :)




What do you guys think?  Gotta have or leave it in the dust? ;)
