New Door, New Skirt and Old Skills

We have thought our front door was super boring ever since we moved in, but have debated and debated on what to do about it. I finally got brave and splashed some nice bright paint on there. We had a moment where we almost went super trendy with a teal, but I’m glad we reigned it in a little.

(P.S. That planter box is getting a make over very soon, hence the emptiness.)

I finally found the guts to try this tutorial. I’m not in love with the tutorial (lots of gaps), but as you can see I figured it out. I’m pretty excited about it!

In other random news I whipped out the old unicycle after my bike tires called it quits this weekend.

(don’t worry Brandon already fixed them- darn nails!)

Yep, I’ve still got skills!

    You do still have skills! And I love the door color! You are so brave to do big projects like that. It may not seem big to you, but it is to me!

    I’m impressed!! It all looks so great!

    The front door and your skirt look great! But what I find most impressive is that you can ride a unicycle! I like you even more now Megan!

  4. Oh Megan!!! I have a few things to say:

    1) I LOVE THE DOOR!! The blue is awesome. I’m sure the whole outside of the house looks completely transformed with that pop of color.
    2) WAY TO GO!! I’m so glad the skirt turned out for you. And also, reading this post made me realize I never responded to your text with the question about the skirt. Yeah, the tutorial definitely had some gaps, huh?? Confusing stuff. But you are way smarter than me and figured it out :)
    3) You are one talented chica. Unicycle?!? Really?!? that’s amazing.

      Thanks Camille! Yeah, I skipped that step. I could not figure out what she was referring to, but I guess it turned out fine. I also ended up with a weird waistband at the end so I ended up putting darts in both sides. The band isn’t one continuous line, but it stays flat now, so I guess it works. Thanks for the inspiration!
