What I Did This Weekend....

So what did I do this weekend, you wonder?
Well...
I painted....
A LOT.....
The mighty fun of painting my craft room began last weekend....
And then I schlubbed off all week....
And then figured I'd get off my ass and take care of some painting business....
And I must say that I'm VERY pleased with the results thus far ! ! ! ! ! !
Every time I walk into that room it makes me smile...
And that was TOTALLY what I was going for in the planning of how I'd paint this room.
No pictures shall be posted as of yet kiddies....
Not until I can get everything a little more touched up and looking a bit better.
THEN !
Perhaps I'll share....
For now you'll just have to settle for a description....
Purple ceiling...
Walls are :
Top Half: 1 orange, 1 fuchsia, 1 granny smith apple green, 1 sky blue
Bottom Half: Multi-colored stripes of varying widths
Perhaps this sounds bizzare to you...
Or maybe even like it's notsonice looking....
But I must say that I think it looks rather good and that I'm greatly enjoying the colorfulness of it all....

I also treated myself this weekend...
To something I've never done before...
I got my hair professionally highlighted !
SQUEEE ! ! ! ! ! !
It was funny that the hairdresser thought I was coming in for blonde highlights when I walked in the door....
I guess that's a popular request?
But NO ! ! !
I've decided that my blonde phase is officially over and that it's time for me to embrace the fact that I do, indeed, have reddish hair !
So I got lighter red highlights...
And OH how wonderful they are !
They're not too obvious - - - but I can tell the difference ! My oddly colored hair now looks more uniform !
This trip to the salon was my birthday gift to myself (well, belated, I suppose) and I'm so very happy that I did it !
