got my pockets full

It's been quite a while since I posted any kind of house updates on here. We've been making tiny bits of progress, but we've accomplished nothing major, I'm afraid. We've got paint picked out for the dining room and part of a outside deck built, but those bigger projects will have to wait until life settles down a bit. It was an exhausting February. I'm glad that spring is on the way.

We did manage to get the downstairs bathroom primed and painted twice. But, it needs a third coat because the baby blue paint that covered it previously is still peeking through. I've got big dreams for that bathroom, including wall planters and a Kate Spade shower curtain.

What really makes the basement right now is our chevron futon that we bought from Target. It goes great with the black, white, gray, and dragonfly color scheme we've got going on down there. If you squint hard, it almost obstructs the half painted desk and the windows without curtains.
