We have been working on a little project over here in Portland and Salem. My mother-in-law just moved into the most beautiful place right on the river. It was a clean slate just waiting for me to get my hands on. So I offered to help put some finishing touches on this lovely riverview retreat. First...

We did not have much for a budget, so off I went to Goodwill, the fabric store, Home Depot. DIY projects here we come! Now we need some before and after pics...

| The bedroom before |
Not much change here, just a $3 shutter painted green, a garge sale wreath and a new duvet cover.

I seriously think that Sharon thought I was going to throw away all of her pictures. Well I kinda wanted to throw away a few dozen empty frames cause she has way more than that. But I neatly arranged them on her walls and then threw this wagon wheel up there...big lots special for $8.

| The bathroom...no before pics, but hey it was a bathroom :) |
She likes shells A LOT! Well really she just likes the beach a lot...who wouldn't! So needless to say we have a beach theme in here. This was bathroom was extra special because it came with a washer and dryer. We had to hide them behind this curtain so they would only be revealed when they perform.

Ben painted this beautiful wall, it took him all day and we had no air conditioning. Needless to say he was a little grumpy. Nothing a little mexican food and the funniest call to citibank (long story)would not fix. It was a fun two days without Boston and he was in good care with his grandma :)
