The stairs and a broken promise!

This picture was given to my Mom when she was little
and it always hung in our room growing up
and I just treasure it.
I keep it right at the top of the stairs so
when the boys go to bed they pass it!
Well this is my broken promise and I really did try to keep it.
the mirror in this photo is another craft
project from Wednesday.
I tried to recreate one of the Anthropologie's mirrors.



going up.
Back to my broken promise.
When we painted last winter I promised to leave the
stairwell picture free.



coming down.

I made it about 4 months and i started finding
those vintage bird pictures.
then they started finding me and the rest is history.
Do you think they notice because nobody has mentioned
it but they make me happy and
you know what they say when Mommy's happy every ones happy!

I think I just need two more and it will be just right.

  3. when Ted decorated the bedroom he asked if it could be a picture-free zone.
    I tried, I really REALLY did.
    I lasted a morning!
