    21 April 2011

    It’s here a day early because my kids are out Fri-Mon for a little spring break, so we get to spend a long Easter weekend together. I’m excited to announce that next week I’m going to do a series on “putting it all together” ~ my thought process when I tackle a space in my home.  I’ll take you step by step and you know I have no professional background, so it could be pretty humorous as well…

    On Friday, you’ll be able to link up a space you’ve created that you love!

    putting it all together

    ***********

    Have you noticed my blog’s new look? My husband was out of town for a few nights last week, so I stayed up ridiculously late reading tutorials, trying different layouts, trying to streamline it and tweak it. If you click on my credits button up there below my header, you can see what I used. I need to add a FAQ button and paint colors in my home, and have a survey about 320 Sycamore I would love for you all to take, but that will all come sometime hopefully sooner than later.

    a merry mistake

    19 April 2011

    Do you remember this Goodwill chandelier I got back in September for $19.95? We decided it would be perfect in Lauren’s room, but we had to make a few modifications.

    a few quick deals

    Blast. The Easter dresses I bought at half price are now even cheaper at Children’s Place.

    tcp dress

    Many are 14.99, then use code A6D2011 for an additional 15% off, making them $12.74 each. They also have cute matching short sleeve cardigans. You probably won’t get them by Easter, unless you pay for express shipping, but still a fantastic deal!

    If you have a store near you the sale should be there as well. Click on the sale button, it’s in all depts and you can use the code on your entire purchase.

    ***************

    Have you heard the buzz about this hair straightener: Remington Ceramic Flat Hairstyling Iron, 1 Inch??

    It gets great reviews~very interested if any of you have it? This is the cheapest I’ve seen it for $39.99 w/ free ship and some claim it works better than the $100+ ones…

    Happy Tuesday~

    thrifty handles for furniture

    13 April 2011

    Furniture hardware can be pricey. Sometimes they can be more expensive than the second hand furniture itself. Lauren’s nightstand and desk were missing some handles, so I pulled an old trick out: ribbon for handles!march 2011 062 1
