Easter & Demo Delights

Happy Easter!

Yesterday we stopped by the new house to check out the demo, which is moving along at a hurry up and wait pace. Nothing new to us, except for the fact that this project is not being done by the military. Currently, the construction workers are working when they have "rain days" at their landscaping job, and during weekends. So far, they have demoed the bathroom (except for tub removal) and the kitchen. They have also removed the carpets/flooring in all of the rooms to reveal the hardwood floors underneath. And they will be beautiful!

Here is the neat wallpaper that was revealed during the bathroom demo. Quite bold for such a little space!


During our antiquing/thrifting this past week we stopped at an antique mall that was having a moving sale. We scored this fab square milk glass cake pedestal for 40% off!


The croc Easter basket is for Little Mister. The funky basket on the right was made with love by the sweet hubby for me! He took a Goodwill basket and the fabric from Hobby Lobby that I said I would like for new kitchen curtains, shredded it to make Easter grass, and then wrapped it around the handle and through the weave. Crafty bugger, he is!


Then, he filled it with sour candy and my recent obsession, Butterfingers.

 Note to all in the blogosphere: office shredders don't handle fabric well. Don't try to make Easter grass with them. (As retold by the sweet hubby) =) He's funny. I can just imagine him trying to feed the fabric into the shredder. Good idea, in theory!

Look at those CAMO eggs in the croc basket! That's how we roll around here now!
