A Whale of a Weekend

Happy Monday, I hope that you all had a great weekend.

We finished up Spring sports and I have to tell you that I am glad to be taking a bit of a break. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE watching the kids play and we had a lot of fun but it is so nice to just slow down.

School will be finishing up soon so we still have some concerts and recitals to attend but it will be a bit slower pace. :)

Last week I had some time here and there to try a small project that I have been wanting to do.

Here is my inspiration:

Beach Decor

I have been eye-balling these for a while now and ever since I tried the jig saw on my daughters starfish headboard I had been itching to try something else.

So...

I drew a whale on a scrap piece of wood that we had

cut it out,

and gave it a coat of yellow paint and sanded it down a bit.

I am really happy with it and again, no straight lines so it was fairly easy to cut out. :)

I am sure that he will find a place in my kitchen somewhere, I am slowly adding some things into the kitchen and incorporating more of the yellow with the grays in there.

And who knows, he may just need a friend. :)

Have a great week!!!

I also wanted to thank you for the wonderful comments about the chapel that my brother and future SIL are getting married in, I try to reply to all your wonderful comments but with everything going on lately I just haven't been able to get to the computer, please forgive me.
