View Full Album I think I’ll lose half of my followers with a title like that (and maybe gain a few that will be disappointed), but I just couldn’t resist. And if you aren’t sure what kind of booty I am referring to, go here. Technically I acquired everything you see here legally, so it…
I wanted to join in the last time the illustrious “Nester” had her “Price My Space” party, but I realized that there wasn’t one room in my house that was “done” enough to exhibit. They are all works in progress. I’ve made a lot of progress since the last party, but thought I would have…
I pulled off my anniversary celebration last week, and it involved a bit of insanity, so I must share, although I neglected to get pictures of much of anything. This year being our 10th anniversary, I had grandiose visions of tropical vacations, diamond anniversary bands, and all sorts of wonderful surprises. As the anniversary drew…
I’m aware my posting has been pretty light this week. Among the reasons for this, is that I am still putting together a little insanity to celebrate our anniversary (late) tonight. Another reason, is that I have been working on little projects all week, but instead of getting them done one at a time and…
First of all, what is a PBP? It stands for “Pre-blogging Party.” You see, I’ve been crazy a lot longer than I’ve had this blog. Lately I’ve been looking at photos of parties from years past, and I’ve realized that without a digital camera, and the plans to blog about party details, my pics leave…
I’ve been trying to create a post highlighting the details of our wedding, 10 years ago, this week. But I am finding the challenge of blogging with pre-blogging, pre-digital images, combined with trying to get out of town for a family weekend, a little more than I can handle right now. So I’m not promising…
This fun rustic looking keg, could be fun to use at lots of parties, right? But wait… It is CAKE! Almost the entire thing is edible, and what’s crazier…it actually works as a keg! This masterpiece was created by my good friend, Kim’s mother, Terri. Here is what Kim wrote about this cake: Mom just…
Bit by bit, I’m finishing up projects for the loft area. This table used to look like this… …except is was red, and colored on and tearing apart. While I have seen lots of beautiful kids’ tables for sale, that’s not in the budget right now. I starting thinking about recovering and/or deco-paging it. What…
I love the inspiration I get from all of you when I ask for a little advice on my blog. In response to my plea request for furniture refinishing advice, one reader, Jenny, emailed me this gorgeous picture of her banister. She used a tinted polyurethane product I didn’t know existed and made the whole…
My nephew must be a wild kid! First we threw this shower for his mom (here & here), and now he’s getting a wild jungle/safari room. This is where it is at now. I showed you a sneak peek of the ceiling I spent forever painting. After that, I took a yard stick and drew…
