My BFF sent me this link yesterday and asked if she should do this to her bathroom. I said "Hell to the yeah! But we could make that for a whole lot less." Not that $14.99 and $17.99 is a lot but I have issues with things that even I could do. And my original purpose of this blog was to journal about the things that I see people do and how I could make it for myself for less.
So get that free paint made in blood red, Pick up this $2.99 bath mat and go to Homegoods and buy a $3.99 washable shower liner and then reenact the shower scene from Phyco.
Now through July 5th, purchase Glidden paint from The Home Depot and receive a $5.00 rebate. Go to Glidden for more info and the rebate form.
I made the best chocolate chip cookies last night! I started with Amy Sedaris's
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened ( I used salted)
1/3 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
2 teaspoon vanilla extract (do not skimp on the vanilla, use your good stuff
2 large eggs
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 bags semi sweet chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts (not optional!)
Beat butter, sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract until creamy. Mix eggs in well. Gradually beat in flour and baking soda. Stir in chips and nuts. Chill for 2-4 hours, then roll into balls and bake at 375 degrees for 9-11 minutes.
Next prop yourself up on the couch with a large glass of milk and the remote. Commence gorging!
Also, has anyone seen these super cute reusable doilies at IKEA? Only $1.49 for 4!
* speaking of vanilla, has anyone tried St. Ives Swiss Formula Vanilla Body Wash

I read about this idea over at Mint Blog about using wooden crates to create this different take on the hanging plant. I happen to have several wooden toy crates
We have been working on our big move for the past few days. We swapped rooms with Sophie and put her new loft bed together. Now she has a desk, so I dashed out to the thrift store at the end of the road to see if I could find a $5.00 desk chair for her. As if it was calling me, I found a great little chair for $4.99! I should have taken before and after pictures but my Husband and I took it apart and reupholstered it as soon as it rolled through the door.
We still need lampshades for the little lamps that were once in my Etsy shop. tee hee. Now that we have a camper and with all this remodeling we are doing, I have taken like 20 items down from the shop and put them to use here!
I think I may go with this shade from Ikea...
