Just to continue the saga...

So I couldn't just paint the bathroom, I had to clean the closet as well.
Then I took these frames and painted them.
So now they look like this.
The bottom one actually, I still need to sand the edges a bit more.

I've also been using this...
and this...
to press these. (Curtains) Because your friends will know whether or not your kitchen curtains are pressed and starched. Right?

This post is totally like airing out your dirty laundry. I feel liberated. Ha.

Oh I know what you mean girl... Once I begin, no closet is safe!

Happy ironing and starching!

Haha, I love it! We are so alike, Irene. I can't tell you how many different house projects I have started before we have an event planned at our house. Can't wait to see your house! And I will be sure to open up your closet and take a peek. You don't mind, right? lol.

Have you seen the Target commercial where the girl practices cleaning, cooking and greeting her guests? (it's funny). Your house is looking tip-top -- love those frames -- what a difference! xoxo

Oh, yes, totally! They will be inspecting every little inch of your home...NOT! We all think it's like that, but thank the Lord it's not! All they really care about is the food, well except for that one aunt who says "give me the tour"! Ugh! Does she really need to see my toilet! Come on!

Sorry, got a little carried away there! :)

Have fun cleaning!

xo,
Adrienne

This post was so funny. I am the same way! My husband's aunt came to visit this year from Iowa and she'd never been to our home before. I went crazy cleaning, I even scrubbed the walls in my bathroom (it's been forever and they needed it) but like she was going to notice that, right? :)
