I'm not sure what came over me, but this morning I woke up and decided I MUST paint something that color (pregnancy hormones??). The front door was the lucky pick! I was tired of it being the drab grey/green it was, and it just seem to fade into the house. Nothing about it said "Welcome to our happy home!"

So Roo and I set out on our painting supply buying mission. I think she was just as excited as I was! Pink is, after all, her signature color.


We even got her a sponge brush so she could help layer on the gorgeousness.
After just one coat I knew I had made the right decision. It was splotchy and completely not finished, but I was already in love.

By the time the 3rd coat was on, I was beginning to contemplate painting my whole house very berry raspberry. The pictures do not do it justice AT ALL! I just can't get the color to show up right on the computer.
I've still got some accessorizing to do-fabulous white house numbers to put on and a gorgeous bright green and white arrangement-so that it's not just a big pink door. The numbers have been ordered, and since Rob took the day off today (YAY!!!), I am going on a hunt for the stuff to make the arrangement. I'll post another pic once it's completely finished but for now. . .



Isn't she lovely?! Isn't she wonderful?!
