Paint

 

I finally got all of the hardware off, and got everything out of the closet.  I had some blue paint leftover from painting the boys’ room and think it works great for this project.  I tried painting the other day while all the kids were home and well, that did not work so great.  Duncan wanted to help, and Claire is like a moth to a flame where potential mess is concerned.  I am hoping to get the painting done this week, however, since I’m down at least one kid. 

I think I need a light fixture and am going to look for a very small chandelier.  I also need to cover up the spots on the door frame where the hardware was.

Alarming Pace

Things are moving at an alarming rate.  You might not be able to keep up.  I (read:  my husband) got the door off the hinges, and the only things left to relocate are a lonely, sad snowman, a small heart-shaped block, a birthday wreath and a few miscellaneous stationery items. 

What about that wire rack at the top?  I am contemplating taking it down because 1) it lacks the aesthetic I am going for and 2) I might put it somewhere else. 

I have also decided that I will need a light source.  There are hall lights, but the closet itself is dark.  A tiny chandelier would be awfully sweet. 

Goal for the week:  Completely empty, shelf gone, possibly painted.
