Pinterest Challenge Overload

Yesterday I posted my completed YHL Pinterest Challenge project.  I had three pins that I was considering as my project and chose pin #2 the menu board as my challenge project.  Details here on that project.  The other two projects were just going to have to wait until another time.  But I was on a roll!  Why just stop with one project?  That's right - - I was an overachiever and completed all three inspiration projects this weekend with just a little twist.

As a reminder, here are the other pins I was considering:
Pin #1:  Painted Curtains 
Pin #3:  Front Door Decor: 


Where's the twist you ask?  In Pin #1 I liked the painted curtains but when I stopped in at a favorite thrift store, The Awesome Possum, I found these........
Yep, a set of the same peacocks in the photo!  Only $10 for the set.  I can so see these in a bright color like pink or turquoise but since I'm not certain where they will live I'm going with white similar to the inspiration photo.  Here they are in their temporary home - the main floor hallway.
