June 2013 summary / July plans Show and tell

For Creative Every Day challenge 2013 by Leah Piken Kolidas, I´m taking at least a picture a day for the whole year. This is my fourth time around with the Pic-a-day project and at the end of each month I make a mosaic of the month´s pictures and also summarize it in numbers for the My month in numbers feature by Julie Kirk.  Here are some inspirational instructions on how to go about it. 

I´ve taken 179 of the 181 possible pictures for 2013 so far, here are the 30 that I chose for June from the 133 I will be keeping: CLICK ON ANY PICTURE TO MAKE IT BIGGER

My numbers for this month:
* Reorganizing cabinets with baskets: 2 old ones for the paint cans and 3 new ones for the bathroom.

* Three painted rooms: 1 toilette, 1 kitchen and 1 attic.

Yes! That´s me! Taking wallpaper off

The work included 8 kilogrammes of paper and 10 litres of paint so far.

On the home front but not decorationwise: 5 visits with a total of 14 guests. 
On line numbers: 2 guest posts
~  Tracey Fletcher King painted my mug for her "cuppa with friends" series.
~ I wrote 1 crafting post with a recycled bin for Sarah from Esellek.

Plans for July:

+  We will receive 1 exchange student from Germany who will stay with us for 2 months.
+ Therefore I will take a gazillion (that´s a very BIG number ;) ) pictures of our adventures and post 1 daily blog post as part of the Ultimate Blog Challenge

  8. That's a lot of paint + paper! I wonder if next month's post will feature another set of rooms getting a makeover!

    Or maybe not - seeing as you're having to make space for a house guest.

    I've added you to the board now Paula: http://pinterest.com/notesonpaper/my-month-in-numbers/

    Happy July!

    Julie :-)
