So, it isn't Friday like I said it would be when I posted my big reveal. Wanna know why it is now Sunday instead? Well, because about 8:30 pm my sister in law texted me and asked hey do ya'll want company tonight? (For those that don't know we live about 3 hours from them so its not like its just a pop over to say hi typeathing). Apparently they were heading down this way to visit her family and wanted to know if they could spend the night. They would be here about 11:30. So, I go hunt down the husband at the neighbors and drag him home to clean while I finish my project hastily.
So they get in and we talk and end up going ot bed around 2ish. Up at 8:30ish to start preparing for the cookout we were having with the neighbors (which Bro and Sis in law knew about grrr). About noon we go out ot lunch at Babes. Then they left with my cute chubby (weighs as much as Wyatt does and is a year younger) nephew. We went home and finished getting the house ready for the visitors that evening. We ended up having about 15 to 20 people here. Travis made the most amazing brisket I have ever had! I made my friend Corley's amazing spinich rolls, carved up a cataloupe and made it all fancy (balled it and everything), and set out a fruit tray. It was a big success! About 8:30 everyone headed home and we cleaned up and went to bed.
Which brings us to today. We got up and went to a new church. I think this may be the right church home for us. We will see after next Sundays sermon. Today's wasn't the best I have ever heard. (The pastor kept repeating the same part of the story over and over). So if he makes up for it next week we will keep going there. Wyatt did NOT like being left in the nursery. He started crying when I left him and cried when we went to get him. Makes me kind of sad because he used to LOVE going to the nursery at the church in Sherman. I guess this is what happens when he doesn't go to daycare or the church nursery in months.
Well, without further ado. The reason you are probably here in the first place...
Before:
Ugly Brass colored metal and some funky technicolor beige seats.
After:
I reupholstered the seats in pink and green ticking stripe fabric
And painted the fugly brass a pretty oil rubbed bronze and I painted the backs white.
I tried spray painting the backs, but it kept chipping off, so I just took some acrylic paint and tossed it on top of the spray paint.
I also made new curtains. Its a toile design in rose that matches the pink on the chairs. Eventually I want to put some green sheers behind the curtains. What do you think?
