So if you ever wanted to get your hands on some Marimekko pillows, bedding, or even fabric… now’s your chance. Because one of you is scoring a $500 gift card to FinnStyle!

    We spent the last weekend trying to get all of the finishing touches to our house done (like painting cornices) and packing ourselves up and cleaning the place in order to move out. Tenants were moving in on Sunday, and got it done! After getting not a wink of sleep Saturday night.

    Definitely glad that’s finished! Now onto the next place!

    I have a long list of projects to begin, and a backlog of projects in progress. But, I’m happy to say I’ve been putting the finishing touches on our master bedroom, and our 2yo son’s room. They are now put-together and cohesive. I’m also putting the finishing touches on a couple of quilts that have been in progress awhile. I’m getting on that already!

    FINN ME!!! I am so glad to finally have the exterior of our house painted! After buying a foreclosure last June that had large-scale graffiti and various shades (and qualities of finished work) of stucco patches from the last owners and my husband’s recent patching, I am so excited that everything is finally the same color!!! Now, I didn’t love the 7 hours of masking/taping off that required before we could use the paint sprayer, but it was oh-so-worth-it in the end :). Yay for no more poorly spelled “art” (so and so “wuz here!”)–my hubby is the best!

    Also, I love Marimekko and Finnish design, particularly because I lived in Finland for a year as an exchange student, as it reminds me of my second home!!

    My husband and I finally got around to switching our floating shelf and the gallery wall in our room. We’d rotated the bed by 90 degree and meant to switch things around so I could hang a plate and a few more pictures, and that FINALLY happened this past weekend.

    We just finished laying down flooring and repainting all the walls after a HUGE demo (taking down a wall) in time to host our wedding. It was so good to get it all done in time – we took a week’s break!

    Alas, the list of projects is never ending so I think the true feeling of “finished” it yet to happen. Hopefully in another month! :-)

    Finally managed to get around to repainting our balcony floor before the winter rains hit here in Cape Town. One of those not terribly fun, not particularly rewarding, but still totally neccessary chores that just had to be done. SO happy it’s finished, and I can get back to re-upholstering our fireplace chairs :)
