spring projects

Monday, April 23, 2007

My knitting projects all seem pretty boring right now. Nothing seems close to being finished. I seem to be working on my Hanne with no end in sight. That sweater just goes on forever........rows and rows of garter!
So in need of some instant gratification, I decided to paint my vanity that has been in dire need of a paint job for years. I chose Restoration Hardware's signature color, silver sage. My sister Lisa painted her bathroom this color and loves it.

I also found some beautiful drawer pulls at anthropologie, on sale. Gotta love that!
I am meeting Keana tomorrow at Knit One, maybe I will find a new project that can be knit a little quicker!

    Love the drawer pulls! I want to live at Anthropologie. You know, in the back where the big, comfy bed is. Do you think they would notice? I can't wait to see the results. Even the paint can looks classy.

    Beautiful drawer pulls. Keep at the knitting - I also have slow periods where I don't feel I am progressing.

    Can't wait to see the vanity. Did you get the chance to see the Ballerina in person? I have been so curious to try one on.

  9. They have such awesome paint, Ihelped my MIL paint her dining room & family room with their paint. She used Latte & some other yellowish color, but I can't rememeber the name. I like their Seashore Collection. Can't wait to see the vanity.

  11. I LOVE Silver Sage from RH. That's one of my faves and will probably be in some room of my future home someday. Good choice!

    Again, Anthropologie is the best . . I love those drawer pulls! Sometimes the little accents just make everything so much more special.

    Wish I could be there to help you paint and decorate!
