weekend plans – stalled project
A while ago I hinted that we were considering making a custom bar from IKEA kitchen cabinets. Last night we drove to IKEA after work and it didn't go as planned. Do you ever have those days where nothing seems to go right? That was last night. So instead of coming home with the cabinets to make a bar, we came home with an empty bag. At least the cat likes the empty IKEA bags.So we'll be spending some more time thinking through this project and our bar will look like this a bit longer. Sigh.I'm … [Read more...]

I took out my trusty red table runner and three vases I had on hand from a bridal shower I threw years ago. Tip for cheap vases - find a local wholesale floral distributor. I bought 12 of these … [Read more...]
stencil time – martha stewart stencils
A few months back, a bunch of bloggers were receiving a stash of the new Martha Stewart craft paint and stencil collection. I will admit, I was insanely jealous. A ton of free paint, stencils and tools to try out. Are you serious? Why can't I be a big blog and get those?Instead, I relied on my trusty coupons from Michaels and ended up with my own little stash. Okay, so it wasn't free and didn't show up on my doorstep without ordering but I'm fine with that. Alright, alright, maybe I do want free … [Read more...]
sponsor time: pick your plum affiliate
Have you taken a look at my sponsor section over on the right side of the page? Notice anything different? Last week, I added my first sponsor but he doesn't really count since I pretty much forced him to. RM Pottery sponsors other blogs so why not mine? Wives should get special treatment too!But do you see that new button right next to it though? These folks were not strong-armed in any way or form. Promise. I am now a proud affiliate of Pick Your Plum! I'm pretty excited to be able to share … [Read more...]
