Ta Da!!!!!!

Remember a few weeks ago I posted that I had a new project, well with the nice long weekend my hubby finally had time to work on it. We had searched and searched for a dresser on craigslist for the longest time. It took forever for us to find one that we both liked at a fabulously frugal price. I picked this one up for $80 bucks, yep  that's all. With paint we paid a total price of $100 :)  I love it!!!!!!!

and with some work here it is after

Happy Labor Day!

New Project

I've been searching for a nice dresser without having to pay a fortune for it and I finally found one that both me and my hubby like so we picked it up last night for only $80 bucks!!! Now its time to get busy and get it sanded and repainted, or shoudl I say my hubby get it sanded and repainted. I can't tell you how excited I am to finally have a dresser...lets just say it has been at least 15 years and the whole baskets in the closet, yeah that doesn't work so much for me. I can't wait to post pictures of the process but here is a sneak peek with out the drawers being in it LOL

Happy Friday!!!!

Vintage Mason Jar to Soap Dispenser :)

My mom and I were out on Saturday and went to an antique show for the Barn House. These mason jars were there and I loved the color of them and thought I could do something fun for Awbrey's bathroom which is a beach theme. I had no idea it would become this...I was thinking more like white pebbles or shells haha. My mom was blog surfing and came across this awesome idea (sorry I can't remember which one she found it at because I would love to give kudos to them) anyway I searched for the perfect pump that was the right length and I thought the black would look definitely better than a clear one. So my loving husband drilled the hole and viola!!!! Awesome soap dispenser with some style :)

Happy Planting!!!!!

Look at what we are getting ready to do...I am so excited! I love fresh veggies and they are just so darn expensive. Let me tell you since i have been eating so many I am at the grocery store 3 times a week getting fresh produce. Not any more, I will be planting my first garden in the next couple of weeks. I have wanted to do this for a while now and was trying to figure out how on earth I could get a garden to grow at our apartment with a shady patio...it just wasn't going to work. Our wonderful friends Laura & Dave live out in the country & are letting us use some of their acreage for a 20X30 garden. It will be fun growing my own veggies and getting to do this with our good friends. We will be planting green onions, sugar snap peas, green beans, carrots, pumpkins, sweet onion, lettuce blend, cantaloupe, beets, bell pepper, corn, yellow squash, zucchini & tomatoes.
