Since my Mom got here we have been busy! We have done some redecorating. First we redid the mirror. It had Christmas berries and green branches on it. We ripped those off and replaced them with spring colored trinkets. We found this cool lantern and put some fun flowers in it and voila, a nice spring accent for my boring shelf. The gnome, scary or cute?
Mom brought a variety of recipes with her and we have been cooking up a storm. Last night we went to book club and everyone brought a treat from the book. (Recipes are part of the story.) Mom read the Carrot Cake Mystery and mine was Cream Puff Murder. SO that is what we took. So many yummy things to eat so little time!
We also redid the kids' bathroom. Now we have a bright and funky shower curtain with flamingo accents. I have no idea how we came up with flamingos other than the colors matched. But it works and we all love it!
And the finished products. They look amazing! I was totally impressed with my mom's skills! You can't tell but the ties at the top are made from three different ribbons. She is amazing!
Thanks Mom, I know they wouldn't have look nearly as good had I done it myself.
We have 4 days left before she goes home and my to do list has considerably dwindled. But I am sure I can think of something else to keep her busy ;)
