’twas the night before Lucketts
Well, here it is…Lucketts Eve. I am about as nervous and excited as a kid before Christmas. I’ve been preparing and shopping for weeks and I’m now just over 12 hours away from the event. Whew. We dropped our stuff off at Lucketts yesterday, but it’s just stacked under a tent, not arranged in any […]
Say hello to “Tricycle”
Well, I am totally whipped. I have actually resorted to giving myself pep talks over the last couple of days. “Ok, Marian. Just paint this dresser. That’s all you need to do right now, then you can focus on the next thing.” I have made everyone promise to force me to get in bed early […]

MMS tee & a French chair makeover
I picked up my t-shirts yesterday! I absolutely love them. Reni did an amazing job with the design and I’m so happy with the printing and the quality of the t-shirts. They are Champion brand and are 60% cotton and 40% polyester, which makes them a little stretchy and will prevent shrinking. I’ll be […]
Say hello to “Shutter Gray”
I’m so excited to introduce the first color in Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint line…”Shutter Gray.” So, maybe you’re wondering why I’m calling it Shutter Gray. I’ve decided to name the colors in my line after things I love and decorate with. I have a few awesome chippy gray shutters, so when I thought of a […]
