Belated Valentines




Yes, I am THAT mom who dresses her children in 
"holiday themes". But seriously, they are only going to be little for a short while and I just have so much fun playing dress up. I found the cute ruffled shirt at Goodwill (did I mention I love that store!?) for $1.99, and made a simple elastic ruffled skirt with matching rosette pins. Finished the outfit with a crocheted flower hair barrette. Hope you both gave and received some love this Valentines Day!

Finishing Touches...


I spent January working on some "home" projects. I had a stash of items that I had purchased but just hadn't gotten around to doing anything with. Our half bathroom has been "done" for awhile, but it lacked finishing touches. My colors are Gray and Yellow with a bird theme. I found Birdhouses: $1.00 each, Subway Art Frame $1.99, Vase $.99, Shelf $2.99...... Using these thrifted items (LOVE Goodwill), a little paint, some spare scrap book paper, and some free printables, here is what I came up with! BTW, I know the vase is empty, I still have to put together a fun floral arrangement.... AND I am also hoping to make a yarny birds nest to add to my shelf, so many projects to work on and so little time!
