Any decorators out there?

Today I am treating the kids and we're going into town.  We don't usually go unless we have some "real" business, but this is just frivilous.We'll put school on hold and maybe do a bit tomorrow.  We have three thrift stores in town, and we'll hit at least one.  Then Wal-Mart has their $1 a yard sale on fabric.  Dd 3 wants to sew a wardrobe for her doll.  I also started a new rug yesterday and would like some bright colored flannel fabric to accent it. So we'll stop there.  I   need some soap making supplies, I went to make soap yesterday and didn't have about half the stuff I needed, so we'll pick that up as well. These are my plans, Lord willing. 


I'm remodeling the bathroom and I need ideas.  I've got the walls mudded and sanded.  I'm going to put wainescoting on the bottom.  I hope to prime today, but I don't know what colors.  I wanted to do the tops of the walls in yellow and the wainescoting in blue, but my girls say that it would be too much.  Any color scheme ideas out there?  I want that "old farmhouse" look.  (With our house, you can't help it.)


I'll post later and give a report on this day.  If I find some good fabric deals,I'll post that too.

The yellow top is what I would do, but the bottom I would do in white. I love the yellow blue combination, that is what my kitchen is done in. You can use the blue as an accent color with your decorations and towels and such. Oh I think that would be so great. Dont forget to show us the finished project.........Kitty

When your daughters have homes of their own they can use any colors 'they' want. Go with the yellow and blue. If it makes you happy your family will be happier. Trust Me....Good Luck with all your adventures. Hope You find what you need.
