Overwhelmed!

Sometimes when I am a little overwhelmed it is good for me to sit and blog a bit! I know this time of year is crazy for most people and I have decided I am making it unnecessarily so! 



So I am working part time jobs    Christmas  shopping, decorating for Christmas, baking, and add to that, painting furniture, buying fabric to re-cover dining room chairs and then trying re-cover them myself, etc etc!  Sound familiar. 

I think sometimes we all try to be too perfect and make everything "just right" for the holidays.

As a result I am feeling like nothing I am working on is coming out quite the way I want it to.  Take for example this cabinet!  I saw it at Auction and loved it.  I really wanted to take it home and paint it.  Well, after three different colors, none of which I am happy with, I have decided to put it away for awhile with some other projects until I feel like painting.  Sometimes you just have to take a break! 



need to pick a color-ANY SUGGESTIONS???
 

All these little fellas are just going to need to wait:
