Welp! It seems like the only thing these days that keeps my head on straight, is creativity. I've been crafting A TONNNN, but I also decided to break open some paints and tackle a few household painting projects that have been on my brain; after all I have quite a bit of hours on my hands (don't we all?!?) :) I have been eyeing up our downstairs bathroom for some time.
