Meet Stella...

Stella, {the newest member of our family} used to be ugly, tacky, gaudy, and just plain awful. She is now refreshing, bright, cheery, and delightful. {and fantastic, and beautiful, and awesome, etc}. She got her name because she is quite simply stellar. And I couldn't name her stellar, so i named her stella. she. is. incredible.

When I adopted her, she was a sad thing but had tons of potential. TONS.

I couldn't sleep for days {if i'm lyin', i'm dyin'!) because I was SO excited to see Stella's transformation. It was too late the first day I bought her, then the next 2 days it rained, then the 4th day I had to go to class all day {bummer}, so it was a lot of waiting. I hate waiting for projects!

Ordy Boy, being the sweetheart that he is, totally knowing his Joon Bug and her antsy-ness, started the project without even being asked. We discussed color options and of COURSE I wanted white, but he made encouraged me to go a little crazy. I was hesitant but i'm so happy with the color now!!

I had a choice of three different Krylon yellows, but ultimately went with the "Bright Idea" and I am super happy I did!  It. is. perfect.

he sent me these pictures while i was in class, and my responses to his texts where less than enthusiastic. I was notttt feeling the color. I regretted my decision and felt too bad to tell him to go white. plus i didn't know if it was even possible after his 5 coats of yellow and shine... ugh. regret.

BUT THEN I SAW HER IN PERSON. she was the most BEAUTIFUL shade of sunshine yellow! I was ecstatic. I couldn't wait to take her home and hang her up! Alright, here she is in her new home!

she is so me!!
