It's all in the details....

This past weekend, I finally got around to some house projects that I've been thinking about for months. It's amazing how some little accents can make all the difference in a room. I hung some shelves (and when I say I, I mean my Dad) and used some pieces I had laying around the house to decorate them.

Here's the 1/2 bath pre-moving in

Now with 3 new little accent shelves-

My original plan was to hang two shelves, which I got for $2 each at a local store's going out of business sale. However, my Dad and I discovered that the stud measured 20'' from the outer wall, not the standard 16''. Argh! So, we couldn't stagger them. With the shelves now one directly under the other, I decided that an odd grouping looked better.

I also want to take a minute and tell everyone that I have the best Dad in the world. He never fails to help out an any way he can, whether it's tiling my kitchen floor, picking me up when I was stranded after a car wreck last year or not only paying my 1st speeding ticket when I was 16 but being awesome enough not to tell my mom about it or grounding me. Yep, I'm a daddy's girl.

So, thanks Dad for all you do for me!

Love, S
