merry father’s day

Posted on 20. Jun, 2010 by in personal

Thanks to everyone who replied to or spread the word about my search for a paid assistant. I’m going to wait a few more days to collect applications before I start doing some interviews so feel free to drop me a line if you think you’re the person I’m looking for.

Mr. Lasertron’s first father’s day was really fun and busy. We had our own little celebration on Saturday since we had so many dads in our lives to visit on Sunday. I cooked for him for the second time since we got married two years ago (wife of the year, right?) and he was expecting that.

But I was most excited to surprise him by cleaning and rearranging (and finally unpacking all those boxes from the move last year in) the bedroom. I hung some pictures and art up on the wall, got brand new sheets, and he went to bed early and slept in Sunday. I also surprised him with an appointment to finish his incomplete tattoos.

Our bed is a low platform bed which I love and the paint is Valspar’s Peek-a-Boo Blue. The sheets are all mismatched, from Target. The frames were thrifted and spray-painted and Alice’s little bed is something from Target too. Not much I can do about the grody carpet right now but I’m looking for a better rug to hide it. Loathe carpet.

Here was my inspiration picture for the room–our bedroom/closet is exactly the same layout, except our room is a dormer. What I’ve done so far is no big deal to look at–there’s a lot to add–curtains, lighting, more photos, a better rug, and of course to redo the closet. But I am beyond excited about this start.

Finally, there are still some headbands left in the new Princess Lasertron store (linked in the tab up above!) And if you already placed an order, it’s on its way now.

    Your room is so cute! I love the mismatched sheets – I didn’t even notice they were mismatched – that’s how well it all goes together :)
    Do you have any idea if you have hardwood floors under that carpet? My sister has a dormer as well – she ripped up the carpet, had these guys refinish the floors, and painted the baseboards/walls/ceiling – it looks sooo good!

    I love your room!! It makes me want to redecorate mine. I’m just so obsessed with polka dots lately.

    You are too sweet! The food looks yummy (especially those pretty tarts!) I just love how you made that little note on the bed – adorable and so thoughtful!
