Look What I Got!

Yesterday was a good mail day around here. Want to see what I got?


I have been drooling over all of the fabulous furniture makeovers that I have seen with this paint and finally broke down and ordered some.  I can't wait to get started!!

I ordered my paint from The Bella Bungalow and they were very helpful with ordering my paint.  Just a little warning to any fellow Canadians who are also planning on ordering some - I got hit with a hefty brokerage fee when it was delivered.  I order from the States all the time and, although I have occasionally been charged for taxes, I have never had to pay a brokerage fee.  The Melon Patch in Toronto just started carrying the paint as well so you might want to check them out.

My twine from The Twinery also arrived {I told you it was a good mail day!} So many fun colors!!


As much as I can't wait to get started with all of these products, Dave and I are heading up to Whistler for a little weekend getaway {minus the kids!}  I can't wait to actually relax by the pool!

Over the next couple of weeks I will still be popping in here {and will prepare some pre-done posts!} but blogging time will definitely be reduced.  I am heading to Vegas with one of my BFF's next week for 5 days and then going up to the Okanagan with the family the week following.  If anyone has any fun projects that they would like to share while I am away, just shoot me an email and we can set something up.  I would love to have some guest bloggers around here to show off what you've got!

Have a great weekend everyone!!!

the brokerage fee would likely be due to the fact that the product is imported from the UK & not part of the free trade agreement...

Lucky you heading off to Whistler AND the Okanagan! I used to live in Vernon (and grew up in the L. Mainland) and miss the fabulous summers and lakes terribly!! Have fun!! :)

Rats! Not good about the brokerage fee. But on the bright side, you have some fab paint and I can't wait to see what you come up with.
