Pinterest Goals of the Week

 

I hear similar stories of fellow Pinteresters, that they love all the great ideas they find. They pin them to their Pinterest boards, but then they don’t follow through with them. I seem to have a problem with following through, not just on Pinterest. It’s sometimes easier to just give in to the tantrum and screams and not follow through with the discipline. It’s sometimes easier to not follow through on the good intentions of a diet or exercising once a week. It’s sometimes easier not to follow through with keeping up with my house and laundry.

I have a tendency to let my mind haze over and not think about those things….the feelings of guilt, the frustration with myself.  It’s something I need to work on (thank goodness for counseling!) 

In the meantime, I’ll choose maybe the easiest of those mentioned to try to work on, my Pinterest boards. Ha!

Here are the projects I’d love to accomplish this next week, possibly this weekend.

1. Crayon Art with Ellie. She would LOVE doing this!I think I may actually have an extra box of crayons too.

2. Art for Sophie’s room. I’m thinking possibly this framed name above her bed via Crapivemade

or else this quote found at SummerDandee. If you like it, there’s a free printable on the site. I love this quote.

 

3. Re-cover the dining room chairs. I’m really getting antsy to redo the dining room. There’s too much brown happening.

Brown table and chairs (with brown fabric seat)

Brown China cabinet

Brown Hutch (with brown decorations on top I might add)

(this looks orange in the picture….it’s brown. Trust me)

Brown mirror!

HOW BORING!!!! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

I need some POP of color. I really love the Novagratz Family and the way they design. Here are a few of their rooms that I love. I’d like to see our house go this way eventually. Eventually people. Baby steps.

I got a little side-tracked, but here is the fabric I would LOVE to use in the dining room and then do something wild with the mirror or chandelier, like spray paint it bright blue…hold me back people!

So, those are my Pinterest projects. Learning to follow through. Wish me luck!
