I went to the mailbox on Friday and guess what was there?

Remember the free Martha Stewart subscription (sorry~promo is over)that we worried would never come~

it CAME!

Did yours??

Feb, March, and April all came together~yay! Such a fun surprise to get in the mail....

And then, today I found these sweet little gems in my mailbox~I won my very first giveaway! Yea!

Rachel over at Made with Love and Glue makes these pressed peony pins and they are the cutest things ever. I won one, and then couldn't decide on just one, so I had to buy 2 more. I love them~her color combinations are perfection and they're only$6.50 each, or three for $15. Here is the link to her Etsy shop You'll love her blog as well.

I put this one on my denim jacket:

Remember JoAnn, the giveaway winner ? She got her package ~go see what she did with her bathroom:

And I love what Christina did with a $5 table she got at a yard sale:
Thanks for the inspiration, ladies! I love your makeovers~so much that, are you ready for this? I started priming the master bath this weekend! Now that it's started, I have to finish. :)

I may just turn this into a regular feature~send me your way if you've got something great!

Happy Monday~

Happy Friday, everyone! Have you heard of Pandora? Coolest website~my husband showed me last week. It's basically an internet radio station you create by helping you find music you love. I just found out I love Paul Cardall, so I just changed up the music a bit on here. You can push play below if you want to hear.

I just wanted to say thanks for your patience~if you email or leave a comment asking a question, I do my best to get back with you during naptime or at night, so bear with me. I would love to spend more time visiting all of your blogs as well, but I'm really trying to limit my time on the computer. I don't want to have any regrets about this and I have a sneaking suspicion that in 20 years I won't be saying, "I wish I had blogged more..." I just keep reminding myself that these are years with my kids I can never take back. Don't we all struggle with the whole balance issue?

Meet a dark gray bunny rescued from a yard sale for 50 cents: ( I started spray painting and then remembered to take a picture for my before) Here she is sitting on the piano feeling much more sleek and put together for her spring debut:

Have you seen these little gems at the Dollar Tree? Mine had a ton of them and so did my friend's, so I'm guessing yours will too. They are a 4 pack of these mesh bags that are perfect for containing random things throughout the house. So far, I've used them for odd socks, bath toys, and leap frog fridge magnets. I stashed a pack in the car as well and have used them when we went cotton picking and to put my son's wet clothes in when he spilled a sonic slush all over himself. Works for me~

Oh, and speaking of cotton, some of you have asked if you can buy some. Email me at lissylee@hotmail.com if you're interested and I'll get back with you.
Happy Wednesday!

Welcome from Sarah's spray paint party! I posted this one a few weeks ago, but had to join my fellow spray painters anonymous in the party. Go see what everyone else is spraying!

Don't you think these look too dark and dreary for March?? This is the month we welcome spring! Although, that bright orange Target clearance tag is fit for all seasons...
