Black and White Wednesday "A tiny tease"

Park playdate and reno 230

So, our endless renovation is just about finished, tomorrow should be nice and sunny so I'll grab my camera and go crazy.

I'll post the finished product on Thursday. Meanwhile, for Lisa's black and white theme - I thought I'd give you a tiny preview.....just to whet your appetite.

I just knew it was coming to a close, didn't I...I said it earlier! I am just dying to see what you've done. I can tell from all the little details that Wanda the Amazing left her artistic mark every single place you look. Love the lighting, the cabinetry, the details, the PICTURES...YOUR pictures, framed and ready to roll......oh, I just can't WAIT!
You are a little teaser, aren't you!

Happy Wednesday!

Okay Wanda... you're killin' me! Haven't you ever been told it's not nice to tease? I can't wait to see the entire room! Just from the little teasers, it looks fabulous! Can't wait for you to share all the little details you must have made. Have you cooked yet in your new kitchen or are you still taking in the newness of it all?

Happy Wednesday!

Thanks for your kind words on my blog. My little brother's story IS pretty overwhelming, we agree that he is in the right family, like you said. :)

I adore the pictures on the mantle! And I wish I had the stress of renovating my home to look forward too ;o) Actually, maybe I should get the home first before I think about renovating!

Hi, I'm Wanda. I am a happy woman, wife to Danny for...oh....lots a years and finally Mom to THE most adorable little girl from Hunan, China - Dahlia. And now we have been blessed again with another daughter, Milana, from Zhejiang, China. (The 2 best things I've ever done!) We live in the Montreal area. After a loooonnngg wait for Dahlia's little sister Milana (pronounced - Mee-lana, like banana), we finally brought her home in August 2009. Dahlia came to us in Nov 2004 (at 20 months of age)and a year later we began the application for another baby - at the time the waiting period was around 8 months. Almost 4 years later (say what!?!)we, at last, brought Milana home. This began as the story of our journey to bring Milana home and life with her big sister, Dahlia. It now continues as we live as a family of four!
God. My (growing) family. Hangin' out with my girlies. My wonderful friends (you know who you are!). To laugh (out loud and a lot!). Music. Painting. Hugs. Long chats with my buds. My garden. To read (ha...when I can!). Sunshine. Spring, Spring and more Spring. Building things. Cooking. Decorating. Parties (ahem). The internet. Life. Movies. A.I. Dancing with the stars. So you think you can dance. Travel. Umm..did I say laughing my head off. Oh Gee...everything actually!!
