Storm IN

There is all these warning for our first BIG one coming this weekend that is a blizzard , storm warning , lots of snow , cold temp. and nastiness . So I am preparing for the LONG weekend to be in . This is what I am up to today . I bought lots of Extra thread for my sewing machine , made a  white chocolate smartie cheesecake, cooking  a ham , picked up some paint and brushes to start painting the boys room, hauled wood up to the house and planning for a weekend @ home which really in my eyes isn't all a bad thing to me . I am all ready bring it on old man winter . 

Here's a peek at my inspiration for the boys room.

Once again horns love also love this headboard so digging this maybe for a BIG boy bed for little man . 

Source I can not provide a proper source for this as it was a broken link so anyone that wants to help me with the proper credit to this room please do . 

Have always been a fan of the pallet DIY. This would work for Dman head board as he already has a bed so just alittle DIY to finish it off. .Also digging the map I would call wreath on door too.

I think this could be a possible DIY project .... someday . 

There that is my weekend plans in a nutshell , to cozy up with my family eating cheesecake by the fire in between painting the walls of the boys room and making some Tutu's too .
