Well, school is almost out here ( one day left ) and that means the beginning of summer vacation and time to work on my projects, more junking and garage sales, and lazy afternoons at the lake!
I have been very busy and my junking so far this year has been AMAZING!! I have so much to share, I'll be blogging a lot this summer!! I have a few pics of the garden and what I have added so far. I have to admit I haven't done much yet this season, but I'm working on it...
I found this cute chest by the side of the road, a TON of terracotta pots ( this is just a few of them ) and the door and wreath are also junk / garage sale finds.. not bad, eh?
I grabbed a couple of croquet mallots and balls out of the garbage, and just stuck them in the garden for now, but something creative will happen with them later..
And I love this teal birdhouse someone threw in the garbage.. perfect!! I just drove it home and stuck it in the ground.. it couldn't have been easier!!
Stay tuned this week, I will be adding more vintage finds to my etsy store as well as featuring a giveaway!!!
Last week I was on a mission and completely scrubbed and cleaned the girls room and the toy room. Needless to say, one week later both rooms look like I never even touched them!! I did manage to sew some curtains for the toy room and I scrapped some ABC wall decorations to give the room a little style. Maybe one day it will be picked up enough to actually post pics of the WHOLE room!!! A girl can dream, can't she??
I did also hang some curtains in the baby's room. I had been looking for SOMETHING for his room ( we have terrible windows.. the more coverings over them the better! ) I found this curtain for $ 4.99 at Goodwill. Not my first choice for a window covering, but it works and it was cheap. believe it or not I chose the colors of red and blue for his room and it is getting hard to find stuff for little boys rooms in those colors!! Huh... Anyway, I also got these cute camping lanterns for Jayson's room at Goodwill for $1.99 each. I grabbed both, one was red and one was green. For now they are on a shelf in his room, but they may move. Once I get Jayson's dresser painted, his room wil basically be done for now... but nothing is EVER finished, really, is it???
There are a couple of designs in my Etsy store, or I can customize a mug for you in any color combo or design you would like!! The giveaway will end at 10:00 EST on April 3. Here is how to enter..
