Musings on music and life. March 2, 2012. Whistle While You Work…. Since finding out that we’ll have a new addition to the family in just a few short months, the timeline for projects around the house has gotten a lot shorter! We need to prioritize what. Of course, this post wouldn’t be complete without a few before pictures…these were taken when we were house hunting in April 2011. Laundry room entry from the downstairs living area. Laundry Room with previous owners' washer/dryer. Though I’m sure ...

Musings on music and life. June 22, 2012. DIY Subway Art, Disney style! This whole nesting bit has made me way more crafty than I have ever been in my life! 8211; I’m sure you’ve seen this kind of art around, it’s definitely a huge trend right now:. Bed Bath and Beyond Word Art. Subway Art from Target. Mickey Mouse Subway Art I found on Etsy. Run across a few blogs that talked about DIY subway art, though. Since I’ve been so crafty lately, I figured why not try it and see what happens? This is a crucial ...

Musings on music and life. September 2, 2013. Willkommen, Bienvenue, Welcome! 1 on the list of already started projects was….the entryway! Here is what the area looked like when we first looked at the house:. This is what it looked like a few weeks after we moved into the house in July 2011:. And 2 mirrors from Target for the big white wall. Just painting the trim white made a huge difference all over the house! Soon the banister behind the couch was taken out:. You’ll notice that in the wall towar...

Mod Podge! | Melodic Musings
https://melodicmuse.wordpress.com/2012/06/08/modge-podge
Musings on music and life. June 8, 2012. Since my last post the nesting phase of pregnancy has definitely kicked into high gear. All I’ve been wanting to do is organize, and I’ve found a few blogs (like IHeart Organizing. I hadn’t heard of Mod Podge before I started reading the blogs, but now that I have I love the stuff! I don’t really have any bins I need to cover, but I did have this Elfa drawer unit in my crafting closet downstairs:. Elfa drawer tower holding all of my scrapbooking/beading supplies.

Musings on music and life. June 12, 2012. Heigh Ho, Heigh Ho…. It’s off to nest I go! In my last blog I mentioned finding inspiration from a site called IHeart Organizing (see the link in my blogroll). This project was another one inspired by that site. D and I were putting together a shopping list on Friday night, and were greeted by this (slightly frightening :P) sight:. How we found anything in this is beyond me! First up was emptying the entire pantry:. Ahh – a nice blank slate! Food, glorious food!

Be Our Guest! | Melodic Musings
https://melodicmuse.wordpress.com/2012/02/18/be-our-guest
Musings on music and life. February 18, 2012. I’ve been quite remiss on updating the blog with the progress on our house, but I’m going to start remedying that today – starting with our guest room! Our guest room wasn’t originally part of the house. The previous owners decided that they would take part of the 2 car garage and create a new room downstairs. Here’s what it looked like when we bought the house:. The room from the door. I knew I wanted to use all of the Broadway posters I’d collected ov...

Circle of Life | Melodic Musings
https://melodicmuse.wordpress.com/2012/10/04/circle-of-life
Musings on music and life. October 4, 2012. On July 8th, 2012 at 9:11am, our lives changed forever as we welcomed our daughter into the world. S was 6 lbs, 13 oz and 19.75″ long at birth. But seeing those beautiful blue eyes stare up at me knowing she’s trusting us to take care of her…it’s indescribable. We had to use the call button to get someone back in the room with us, and then of course they wanted me to wait to push til another nurse arrived. As much as there was pain when pushing, pushing als...

Meeska, Mouska…Mickey Mouse! | Melodic Musings
https://melodicmuse.wordpress.com/2012/07/01/nursery
Musings on music and life. July 1, 2012. Meeska, Mouska…Mickey Mouse! I’m sure it’s a big shock that we chose a Disney theme for our daughter’s nursery. 🙂 It’s taken a while to put it all together, but the nursery is finally done! The red/white/black/yellow color scheme isn’t exactly easy to find in stores where all the Mickey/Disney patterns are pastel, but we had fun searching for fabrics and looking for crafting ideas – though I’m sure D is a bit done with my nesting by now! D’s dad was up not ...
