Style Cure Weekend Assignments

So I spent most of Friday painting the grey wall in my living room back to the"french white" color the apartment was originally painted.  I tried to mix the paint as much as I could, but instead of a pancake like consistency... I wound up with a protein shake/ watery consistency. This made my paint roller spray while it was being rolled onto the wall. Geez, I really wished I bought plastic wrap to put on the ground. Instead I spent about 4 hours painting and cleaning the floors. At the end of it all, I was covered in off white paint speckles and sweat. soooo tired.

The cool part was that after I was finally done painting I re-arranged the furniture and re-set up a new console. Instantly the living room looked better. it felt sooo good to be rid of the dark cave.  next time i will really think twice before painting an accent wall grey in a dark room. rookie mistake.

Saturday I went out and bought a bunch of salvation army picture frames to fill the wall above my sofa. i wanted that empty frame look. but after putting it all together, i'm not sure i like that empty frame look. it kinda looks stupid. so now i need to go out and get some artwork to fill them. thinking about doing a mural for jade.  i have one for andy (RIP!) so it only seems fair that she gets one as well.

Speaking of which.... jade has kinda turned into a new cat since Andy passed away. shes been out more and meowing like crazy. during the day i dont mind her long annoying meows. but at 6am.... i just want to choke her. damn you cat. can't u see i'm sleeping? ugh.

the good news is that the apartment is slowly coming together, and i cant wait. thanks to apartment therapy for style cure! woot woot!

Day 14: Go with the flow.

Today's assignment was to rethink the floor plan. since i already knew i wanted to flip the sofa and tv location... this was easy!

thank goodness. i was getting burnt out on all the stuff i had to do so far.

Day 13: Monday, August 19 Assignment: Make some progress on your projects

Dang. So much for staying on schedule.  I spent most of the weekend trying to put up a bookshelf and repainting some old ones I had.

I unsuccessfully got rid of my expedit bookshelf. which means i posted an ad on craigslist and then the person that wants it replys that they definitely want it... and will pick it up some day. and btw- they actually asked if they could disassemble the piece in my living room. dear god, craigslist sometimes it s just too hard to GIVE THINGS away! oh emm geee. so right now this huge thing is sitting in the middle of my living room. its become a new cat bed for Jade. at least someone is enjoying it.

Now... i tried to do the container store elfa project this week. i spent about 2 hours trying to put up some railings. it sounded easy, but for some reason the railings weren't matching up. somehow the wall started to look slanted. after much frustration and panic, i realized that the wall i was working on was not at a right angle to the perpendicular wall. so when i put the shelves up- it had a false level. it was strange. i thought i was at the mystery spot in santa cruz. so now my books are sitting against the wall. no shelves. :(

the good news in this post was that i was able to do a great job painting some old book shelves. yay! heres the pic:

last but not least. in my endless obsession with Anderson (RIP kitty) I made a mural of his cute face. lately i've just been staring at it a lot.

so... style cure. so far i have renovated a bookshelf, created a mural, and decluttered.  i missed my weekend shopping excursion- but will venture out at lunch time today.
