to link up your creations! The party is in full swing!
I have a craving for numbers …. at least with regard to decor. Does anyone feel the same? My husband is a doll, but he doesn’t get it. He doesn’t understand why I like to decorate with numbers at all. He teases me actually.
My love lives on.
Here are some things that appeal to me:
 |
| Ciasak |
 |
| Sisters of the Wild West |
 |
| The DIY Showoff |
How could I not adore numbers?
They are so much fun to use in decorating!
That was the inspiration behind this dresser makeover.
Here is the before:
Really not at all good-looking.
Solid and practical, but definitely not pretty.
The challenge drew me in.
I love making things prettty.
That’s what I do.
Isn’t this much better?
I like it.
He is mighty handsome.
I think he would look sweet in a man cave or a
teenage boy’s room.
I am thinking I may just name him Rico Suave.

I’m embracing the change you made on Mr. Suave. The new him is much more dashing and debonaire, he could go to the dance with me now.
