What is going on at the Grove household….

Why are projects never ending? I counted 10 projects that I want to get done by Thanksgiving. That is 2 weeks away from today!!
I think projects are never ending because I love doing them and I don’t want to stop. I am a project addict. Haha. Are you that way? Do you finish one project to start another?
I love re- spray painting a frame 5 different times. I love recovering the same pillow 5 different ways in the course of 5 months. ITS NEVER ENDING! But I love it.

I hung a few of my favorite little framed pictures around my hall mirror.
I inherited my Grandfathers childhood desk which I love. It was in my son’s room for awhile but then he got a cute schoolhouse desk so we moved it into our room. I added anthro knobs and placed it under the art wall in my bedroom. I bought the pineapple lamp at the Farm House Sale and then found some accessories from around my house including the clock and displayed them on the desk. (I also walked around my home yesterday with a handful of batteries because I realized most of my clocks didnt even work.)

    i love that ornate mirror and the after shot looks great. i also always seem to have a project, but i'm very good about finishing one before starting another. i get bored and if i had 'works in progress' they would stay that way.

    I was seriously just going to email you to see if you knew of a good place to get drawer knobs. Oh my word, I am loving all the ones at Anthro!

    What a fantastic transformation..just love it…and just like you..I too can have 10 projects going on at the one time…and sometimes stop and start something else…just means we have an active and creative mind that is just itching to bring all those creative visions to fruition :)
    Have a great weekend!!

    I can definitely relate to having multiple projects going on at once! I'm always ready to change things up, even if it just means rearranging the furniture. Love the mirror!
