When I was little my mother made my sisters and I some night gowns out of some of my dad's dress shirts. Given John's career, we have an abundance of dress shirts around here and I decided to make my princess a few dress-shirt night gowns of her own...
Please don't mind that they aren't ironed yet, I was excited okay.
Oh, and here are some pictures of my cute home.
You will notice that the porch railings are MIA. Well, it's kind of a funny story that ends with John falling off the porch onto me. Literally...I broke his fall. I am such a good wife. Anyway, the whole porch is in desperate need of a remodel and that's one of the many projects lined up for next summer.
Part of my kitchen.
The window seat in the dining room that I will one day make adorable drapes and pillows for.
This is the chandelier in the dining. I love love love it. (Not a good picture of it though)
And the built-in in the dining.
The built-in, the arched doorways, the window seat, the original floors and windows, the fireplace...I love the charm of my house. I just wish we had the money to really do what I wanted to do to it and transform it from cute and charming to simply perfect. Ah well...in all honesty it is perfect...to me anyway.
