Look How They Shine For You...

This weekend was all yellow. Not really intentionally, but it just kind of turned out that way. Saturday morning we visited this serene place, visited some friends who just welcomed a lovely little bundle of joy into their lives, picked up a hopeful craigslist piece and then got to work. We were ambitious, maybe too ambitious. Want proof? Scroll at your own risk.

C gave me this for Christmas. Isn't he sweet? He said he wanted it to be a project for us.


I love it. And a project it became.

I dreamed of a yellow bike, and my man delivered.


So it was on to our criagslist hopeful.
When picking out fabrics, yellow just felt good. So we went with it. Don't worry, we are fully aware of how frumpy it looks. But for re-upholstery first timers, we're trying to be pleased. I have a feeling it will become a project again soon.






So after a Saturday of yellowness, is it any wonder that this is what I pulled out of my closet come Sunday afternoon? Yes, C wore a yellow tie and yellow socks. He's dreamy.


Speaking of the dreaminess of C, he brought a little bit of color and a lot of charm into our yellowy weekend with this breakfast masterpiece. French Toast went in the middle of the plate. And it was delish.
What color was your weekend?


Happy Monday.

Ok can we talk about the bike hanging up from the tree or whatever it is hanging from?? First look at it fully reminds me of one of grandpa's cows hanging up being butchered! Just thought I would throw that in there :) L.O.V.E. your yellow weekend.....pretty sure you guys make my day every time I read your blog.
