FFA Challenge #2: Homegood's Quiz

Let me start out by apologizing about Jakey's middle finger in the Easter post. Dave said he gets it from me... I wish I could dispute that! Poor kid's already picking up his mom's bad habits... actually, I never used my bird until after a few years of commuting to work. Something happens to me when other drivers make dumb choices. Either way... Jakey's getting a tude... He's spending way too much time with his mama!!!

"What you talk'n about Willis?"

Okay... so on to today's Fearlessly Finding Awesome Challenge. It's is all about a quiz on the Homegoods website. I am impressed!!! The quiz is to help define your design style. I told you I was obsessed with this stuff...

Here is what my quiz told me:

You are a Bohemian Casual

You are interested in creating a place where people feel relaxed. You have a variety of interests and influences and so appreciate different styles, cultures, and objects. Your home is cozy, with comfy chairs, throw pillows and places to set a drink or a book. But it also feels creative and visually intriguing, because you have an artist's eye that allows you to find objects that appeal to you in a unique and personal way—whether from your travels or from a local shop. This gives your home a feeling of being laid-back, and maybe even a bit quirky with its mix of pieces—some of which are classic, some handmade, some ethnic, and some just rich in meaning to you.

You value creativity. You are stylish and fun loving, and can be an inspiration to others. You have a natural sense of drama, and you know you have to be willing to take risks—whether with colors, finishes, furniture choices, or ideas—for your home to stand out. Your home can be happy and lively and the place all of your friends want to be.

I think they nailed it!!!

On a different note:

I'm trying to get all my spring cleaning done. I feel like I cannot keep up on things. It drives me crazy!!! I'm hoping to get that squared away this weekend. I found an awesome link to a spring cleaning check off list. Love it. Dave thought I created it myself. He made the comment that I "go all in" when it comes to cleaning... that made me laugh!

I am eager to get all the cleaning done so I can start on a project I'm dying to start. Right now Jakey is sleeping in a mini crib. It's not a pac n' play or anything like that... it's a real crib, just half the size. It works great for our bedroom, however, I haven't put together a nursery or bedding for his crib he'll move into. I wish I could just put the kiddo in a twin size bed, but he'll be too small for that so I have to get all the stuff together for his crib. Of course picking out crib bedding at JC Penny's or Khols would just be too easy.. instead, I have to make it by hand. I can't help it... Jake's room theme is going to be OUTER SPACE  and ROCKETS.   Everything to do with that topic that's been done is so cheesy. My kid isn't going to have cheese. So... If I get my spring cleaning done rather quickly, I can start this fun project!!!

Here is a piece of artwork we picked up that serves as inspiration:

Adorable, right?!!!!!!!!!!!

Have a good weekend everyone!
