The Raz

Nesters, meet my nephew, Lucca Parker Alterio... {AKA The Raz....}


He was born yesterday at 10:38 AM with a full head of hair, bright blue eyes and is the most adorable thing I have ever seen in my life.  I will have to travel to NYC to meet him face to tiny little face over the weekend but I'm already in love.  How could you not with those chubby cheeks!!

What's Next?

Many of you have been asking, me after seeing pics of Satine, "What's next?" And let me tell you, that is one very good question.  I had my sights set on doing a wing back chair...

Upholstery Class: Week 11 Satine Comes Home

Today is a very proud day, Nesters.  After eleven weeks of blogging about Satines' wild transformation from "drab to fab" I am thrilled to announce she is complete.

Bye Bye Bed

Heya Nesters!  Sorry for my absence yesterday... sometimes life just gets in the way of blogging! {How dare it...}  But I made up for it with double posts on Wednesday... right?? Be it as it may, I'm back in action.  I made a bold move last night: I am selling my good ol' bed.

Goodbye Dame Elizabeth. 1932-2011

Due Date

Heya Nesters!!  The idea of today is a super exciting one for me.  Why?  Well remember the baby shower I threw for my brother, Joe, and SIL, Molly? Today, my nephew is due to arrive on the planet and blinking, step into the sun.  There is more to see than has ever been seen. More to do than has ever been done.

Satine: A Fashion Review

Hey Nesters! Since the next upholstery class post may be the last post about Satine for quite some time, I thought we could bid her adieu by getting to who "Satine" really is on the inside.   Except I suppose, since you watched me tear it down to the frame-work, we all know exactly whats really on the inside.  But let me be weird and personify her take a stroll down ficticious memory lane and see how she started out, only to reintroduce you to next Monday as our newly made over, uber chic gal.  So let's delve in, shall we?

Who was Satine before.....

Upholstery Class: Week 10

Heya Nesters.  I can't believe I've already been posting about Satine for 10 weeks! Totally wild, right?  I just can't wait to get her all dressed up and into a space to see her in all her velvety glory. I know last week you guys were all so sweet to tell me that my post was not boring. This week I will rival last weeks boredom! I kept hammering away this week, completing the nail head trim.
