Jump Frog Jump!

When my son was in preschool we moved into our new house.
 When I asked him what his favorite book was he said Jump, Frog, Jump.
We would read this story every night and he would say "Jump,Frog,Jump"
 in his cute little 3 yr old voice.
 It was adorable. I miss those days..............................................................Oh, where was I ;) 

 It was about this time that Pottery Barn came out with the cutest Froggy Bathroom stuff. I was in love!!

   Quirky fact about me I LOVE FROGS! I know it's weird but I've always had a soft spot for them.  Kermit makes my heart swoon. What a cutie.

So... Of course I headed right over to Pottery Barn and got myself some Froggy Love!


This Bathroom was the perfect place for my Froggy Collection!


so much FuN !
My little Guy Loves being a frog.

I have loved this bright Honey Yellow Bath.........for 7 years.
YES, I said 7! That is a true testament to Pottery Barn Quality!
Just the last year or so the shower curtain has started to show some wear & tear
and the rug is well GROSS!.


Can you see the problem with these 2 pics. Towel bars with         NO TOWELS on them. My Kids cant hang up a towel to save their hides. So I'm going to try and fix this problem.

Sad but true. We are ready for a change.

So That is what I am doing this weekend.
Changing my Froggy Love to something else.


Here's a Hint: It's blue,white and it's from Pottery Barn???

I can't wait to show you............

And then Home Decor ..My heart went pitter patter! Ok not really, but I really Love this sign
But at $99.00 + shipping...... ouch, not in my budget :(









Love Wall Art
Soooo you know me I made my own with help from the Hubby!!

I started with these letters I found at Hobby Lobby
1.99 each at 30% off!

then I went to Home Depot and picked out some trim.

I love this trim. It was $1.44 a ft. I needed a little over 9 ft.
but then I ran across this Door kit!

It came with 16 ft of trim plus 2 bullseyes and
 cute bottom of the door thingies-thats what they are called, right??

So I had a 6+ ft of trim plus the bullseyes and cute bottoms left for another project..score!

My Hubby helped me cut out the board,trim and some squares for the corners.

then we glued and clamped the trim on and let it dry.

Next I glued on the letters and caulked the seams.

Then paint! Good ol' can of white spray paint and there you have it!!
WooHoo.

Besides taking forever to dry in cold weather.. it's Perfect!!

Mine measures 18 1/2" x 43 1/2"....... I LOVE IT!!!

Cost breakdown:
Board- had @ home
Letters- Hobby Lobby  $5.94
Trim- Home Depo $20.25
Glue- had @ home
White spray paint - had @ home
Total.......$26.19  TAA-DAA!

Not to shabby. Even if you had to buy everything, it's still a LOT cheaper.

I'm going to put it in my "New" bedroom!! So excited to have some art in there!

I haven't decided if I want to antique it or not??

What would you do?
