Decorating Part I

I have decided to start decorating little by little every month....
when I have the time....
and the money.

Here is what I have going so far in the master bathroom.
I am very proud of this fake plant because I made it all by myself!
I bought the pot at Vivo.
AND it was half off!
AND I used a gift certificate that Ana gave me in 2002.
Thank you Ana! I FINALLY used it!
I bought the flowers and leaves at World Market.
The styrofoam and moss from Michaels.
And Boughta Bing Boughta Boo
I made this masterpiece.
Okay so it's not a masterpiece but it's pretty good for an amateur.

I also bought this Cross from Vivo.
Thank you again Ana.
The plant is from Home Goods
If you can't tell they are on top of our cabinets in the kitchen.

This is the wall in our guest bathroom.
I like to call it the Geisha bathroom.
I had been looking for geisha pictures and
didn't have much luck finding something I really liked.
THEN Allison to the rescue!
When Allison, her hubby and baby Aiden came to visit
she brought us this awesome piece of art.
It's not a picture.
If you look closely you can see the geisha is made of fabric.
Very nice!

Thank you Allison! It looks great!

You are doing a great job decorating. I can't wait until everything is finished, but I have a feeling it will take at least another full year before it's all done.

Nice decorating. I'm hoping when Carlos and I get settled in our other home we have the funds to decorate a little too.

Thank you handsome for your encouragement and letting me be in charge of decorating....most of the rooms. :)

My suggestion is to look at magazines and window shop around to get a good idea of what you really like. Hey wait a minute aren't you going to be too busy with two little ones. If you need any help or someone to spend your money for you...I'm your girl.
