Sherwin Williams Wallpaper: I Love, I Bought and I Want

Let's see...what to tell you about today.

1. The graduation ceremony last night was beautiful and well...intense. My preggers hormones forced me to start tearing up the moment we sat down...they also made it seemingly impossible to get one decent photo of the festivities...OK...I did get one...

The same hormonal imbalance also made me want to punch the woman in front of me straight face down...she turned around and shushed my sweet 4 year old boy after he had managed to defy all toddler laws by sitting quietly for 2 hours with absolutely no toys, food or electronics...I swear I wanted to put daggers through her eyes...anyhoo...the night was one I'll always remember...these kids of ours, they turn into amazing people who you just know will change the world somehow, so so quickly...it's amazingly sad and amazingly glorious all at once.

2. #projectlittlemiss got a major boost yesterday...my fabulous client gave me the A-OK and wad of cash necessary to secure these two big goodies from my favourite antique mecca, Petits et Jolis...

Note my blurry photo issue...also take notice of the amazing feet that PS, are on the back as well...this puppy will be the centerpiece of the closet that won't really be a closet when we're done with it.

This vanity also happened...

It's going to get a coat of blusy soft pink on the outside and a hit of magenta on the inside...yum.

A stunning little French lamp, complete with porcelain floral finial and a magical light box with 4 dancing ballerinas also got bought.

So good.

Oh and to cap my client shopping day off just right, I happened on Pink Wallpaper while blog reading and discovered that Shannon had a bundle of Schumacher's Lace in aqua for sale...

...and then...I...a) gasped b) emailed my client while simultaneously contacting Shannon to see if it was all sold c) emailed my designer friend Hollie to make sure my yardage calculations were correct...PS I'm an amateur d) prayed to the gods that the 12 yards we needed were still unaccounted for.

As luck would have it, WE GOT IT!

So happy...$38/yard for fabric that retails for 3x times that amount.

It's going to make some reeeeel purdy curtain panels and one rather delightful balloon valance...just you wait.

And while we're still on the topic of #projectlittlemiss and great luck, I'm crossing fingers that these Etsy finds will also happen...

God I love vintage lighting.

3. I thankfully got confirmation that my beloved #projectscarlett wardrobe will indeed fit up my stairs...had a little scare yesterday when the mover phoned and sounded concerned...watch Instagram (@bijouandboheme) later tonight for sneaks of the install...I literally can not farking wait to see this in my house...

4. I'm totally on the 'It's a girl' nursery train and not sure how I'll get off it if the news goes the other way...don't get me wrong, I'd LOVE to have another boy...my decorating self though wants a girl just so I can buy things like those
lavender lamps I showcased...and these divine little numbers...
