SOoo pretty and girly! I have to find some. I think I need to make that table runner.

Another thing I'm in love with right now is horizontal and chevron stripes!!

Okay, I could keep going but I think that's enough :) I like these bold stripes most when they're done in a neutral color, or bold in a small section. Another idea is to use the same color paint but alternate stripes with glossy and matte--that would be really subtle and shimmery. I'm definitely going to have to do something with chevron stripes...Maybe a quilt for Owen's big boy bed...eventually.

Final love interest is starbursts.

That's all for today. I hope you had as much fun as I did!!
