I did manage to do a little cleaning and purging in the living room but the wiping down of walls has been pushed to this week. I got sidetracked in my craft studio (not doing crafty things unfortunately) but cleaning, purging and organizing. When I took over the closet in the guest room I unhoused a mess of crafting goodies and some less than attractive plastic stacking drawers.
I think I came up with a creative and pretty way to incorporate them in to my studio but it is still a work in process. One that I will share just as soon as it's done.
Our weather this weekend was picture perfect for early fall in Southern California It was just cool enough to need a light sweater for church on Sunday. I decided to put together something using one of my favorite color combos, yellow and blue. I found a few options on my pinterest boards for inspiration.
The only thing I splurged on was the pretty yellow and white scarf...less than $5.00 at Walmart. I love it and I love how it completed the outfit.
Monday's are my house cleaning days and I have to get back to my work in the living room, so that pretty much takes care of today. I will be making a quick trip to the thrift store some time this week to look for small oil paintings but not until I have a load to donate first.
I hope you have some fun things planned for the week. Want to share?

ReplyDeleteYou're looking very pretty in yellow and blue, Patty. You're making me think about how I need to sort through my clothes and jewelry for new combinations.
ReplyDeleteBlue and yellow are so classic.
ReplyDeleteYesterday afternoon I took an art class and decided to dress better than my yoga pants and a t-shirt. I stood on the corner waiting for my friend to pick me up and laughed when a neighbor turned down our lane and commented on how dressed up I was. I had on jeans, a white tee, an orange sweater, an orange necklace and orange flip flops. But, I did feel a bit dressed up after a summer of shorts and tees.
And now I am off to work in my daughter's garden after a walk on the beach. I guess I should clean, but I know the dirt will wait for me.
I love blue and yellow together. Cute outfit! Today is my cleaning day also so I'm trying to catch up on blogs so I can start. See where my priorities are? LOL
