Thou Shalt Not Covet (ok maybe just in your dreams)

Wow. That's the first word that came to mind when I visited Karen over at Sew Many Ways and saw her sewing room. My next thought was..."I wonder if she'd let me move in with her?" This room is what I see in my dreams at night when I can pretend that my jewelry making supplies, sewing paraphernalia and bazillions of other craft supplies aren't spread out all over the house. Ahhh...I love dreamland. (And who knew that paraphernalia had that second r in it??)

Sneak Peek at Living Room Re-Do

If you are in need of something that's going to make you smile, then I have found the blog for you. Hop over and check out Mila's Daydreams .... you will not be sorry!

Living Room redo is still in progress and probably will be for a little while longer. But I have to say, we luuuv the new color. Such a huge leap from what was here before. It was definately time for a change. Being the novice blogger that I am, I forgot to take before pics so you'll have to look behind us in the photo above to see what the bookcase wall looked like before I got started.

It's Raining Boots! (Rubber ones)

OMG! If you're looking for some cute rubber boots to keep your feet nice and dry while you do your antiquing/junking this fall, then Target (online) is the place for you! Would you believe me if I told you they have over 100 styles of adorable rain boots? You heard me right...I stopped counting at 100. I figured if you haven't found your favorite must-haves by the time you get to 100 then you might as well get off the computer. This retro style pair with the cute birdie print just might be my fav!

Beach Furniture ReDo

Thought I'd share some photos from my "Beach" furniture redo. This was so much fun, I could've just kept going! This furniture went to live with my daughters...now I've moved on to my living room redo. Does it ever end? Linking to Metamorphosis Monday at Between Naps on the Porch.

Better Late than Never!

I'm probably the LAST PERSON on earth to jump on the dollar store hurricane/apothecary bandwagon, but as they say...better late then never right? I luuuv me a good dollar store and anything even resembling a dollar store, so I was thrilled when one opened right up the street from me. And as of a couple of weeks ago I have my very own Goodwill Store! Woohoo...what more could a girl want???? Maybe a heeuuuge junk/flea market? OK...back to my hurricanes. These were fun to make, but will probably be the extent of my "fall" decorating as I'm more of a Christmas girl...always have been. So, you will probably see these again in a couple of months filled with Christmas goodies! Enjoy...
