Bubbles Make Me Smile

This past Sunday was an awesome day. I had a list of chores to get done, but I managed to ignore all of them. You know why? Because after Elle brought me coffee in bed, she brought me bubbly. This beverage always makes me smile. Hell, it was champagne Sunday after all. Every Sunday is.

After several sips of bubbly I started brainstorming on what we should do with our day.  Again bubbly makes me happy so I thought I’d give Elle something that would make her happy. She’s been begging me for this for months.

So I said it. “Elle, let’s go get paint and redecorate your room today!” She squealed.

She picked the colors and the design. I bought the stuff. We both did the work.

Now I walk into her room to brighten my mood. The large polka dots are just like bubbles. They makes me smile. Maybe even more than champagne on Sundays or clean sheets on Sunday night. Okay, that might be a stretch. But I do love Elle’s new room.

    Love it! I’ve gotta remember to show the kid…we’re moving to a new house this week and she’s begging for her new room to be painted. So…if you don’t mind sharing, how did you manage to make the perfect circles? I’m home-decor-challenged (understatement) so everyone else might already know, but I’m in awe and wonder!

    Amberly: It was SOOOO easy. Go to Home Depot. Ask to see the wall decals. And wham, they have different colors and shapes. And you can move them after they are on the wall. Brilliant. Enjoy. Be sure to share photos of your project.
