Making More Holes in the Walls

I've had a million frames hanging around the house for quite some time now from Costco and from the awesome frame sale I found back in February, was it? (75% off - I am still on a "good deal" high from that shopping spree.) Anyway, we have many walls that I've had 'plans' for, for a long time. Well, I am so happy to say that those walls are no longer bare and I am very happy with the results. I smile whenever I walk by our "galleries". The one above is in our entryway. The one below is in the upstairs hallway and the Language Art was designed by my talented aunt Amy. I LOVE finally having my girls' blessing dress on display! This was the vision I had about 9 years ago when my mother-in-law made this beautiful blessing gown for Sarah.


My brother and sister-in-law made this cute board for us a couple Christmas' ago. I just moved it into the bathroom when I saw on a friends' blog that she made something similar to store her girls' hair bows. Our bathroom was being taken over by headbands, barrettes and bows. Now they are all organized. (Thanks for the inspiration Janessa!) I got most of the bows you see on here from "Oh So Girly" - a fun blog with homemade girly bows and clips for sale. You can click on the title above to see some of Bridgette's adorable bows. I personally love the pinwheel barrettes, especially the black and white one. She has really good prices compared to some other sites I looked at, FYI.

Your galleries turned out really cute. Are these the bows you ordered last week? They came quickly!
