LOVE is in the air

Love can start at any age. Just remember that we should all love like little kids.

This sweet picture of Reese and Jack was taken a couple weekends ago when my family came to visit. 

I will share more on that weekend this week. Happy Valentines Day!

Wishing you lots of LOVE!

I heart Elfa

I just fell in love with the Elfa system from The Container Store! I am serious....in love!
I had this little nook in my closet that needed some customized attention and the people at The Container Store hooked me up.



I told them how many pairs of shoes I had, heels, wedges and flats (not many of those)
and what other type of storage I was needing...like this jewelry drawer.
All of the shoe racks pull out to hold nine pairs of heels!

 And for the other bracelets in my collection I added this paper towel holder to my other wall.

 

with the rest of my necklaces and earrings.

 I have three extra shelves of storage above the jewelry for all of my other things.

 I hung the Cinderella quote my mom gave me a while back...so appropriate!

 And now with all the shoe boxes gone, I have a place to store my tall boots.
Thanks to my sister for helping me cut out cardboard inserts for all my boots so they will stand straight and keep their shape!

Ahhhhhhh! The Container Store changed my life!
PS. They are having their annual Elfa sale right now thru Feb 13th.

Thanks Tom

Sometimes good things do come from all that spam mail. Today I checked my inbox to find this

TOMS has come out with the cutest ballet flats. I have got to get a pair of these! 

Check them out here.

Working Bees & Sneak Peeks

We have been working super hard to get some things checked off our list around here. 

Mom & Dad came up this past weekend to help.

I decided our kitchen had to have a chalkboard wall.

 I started by applying this magnetic primer so we could put up some of 

our cute save the dates we have gotten.

 I cant wait to show you the end result with the chalkboard. 

Here is Dad putting up some good ol' board & batten in our guest bathroom.

 SMILE!!!

 He is the best! He worked so hard and made everything perfect!

 Now, my other little worker bee wasn't as thrilled about "project day" as the rest of us. 

 But he did a great job and I am loving my over the door storage in our bathroom.

Here are some sneak peeks at our progress.

Whoo Hoo! Hopefully I can get this bathroom painted and put back 

together before our company this weekend.

We tried a new recipe from Skinnytaste and thought it was worth sharing
