great hand stenciled wall....

I loved this wallpaper look from a Before & After on Design Sponge.

But, the homeowner says in the comments section :

I actually hand stenciled that wall. Some might question my sanity, but I cut about 550

circles out of freezer paper with an Xacto,

ironed the negatives to the wall, and painted the circles in grey.

I love this idea, and it turned out great!!

Check out the whole before & after here.

hanging tissue pom-poms

she loves it, and jumps for joy

so cute!
what are you looking at....I'm trying to bathe here!

One of my kiddos rooms has some cute paper lanterns hanging from

the ceiling. But, they were looking kinda sad and lonely.

Since I love the hanging tissue pom-poms that are everywhere in blogland

I decided to liven up my daughter's bedroom with them.

I made three tissue pom-poms....

one in white, one in blue, and one in turquoise.

Then I added them to the 3 lonely lanterns.

Her room looks so much better!

I followed Martha's tutorial here.

These pom-poms are fun and really easy to make.

All you need is tissue paper (mine is from Target), and some wire.

Really, I think Pip could even do it.....

once she finishes her bath.
