Great finds!!!


It annoys me DAILY that my daughter doesn't have a hook up in her bedroom ceiling!!! We live in Florida so most people would be wanting the hook up for a fan.....but not me......I want her to have an amazing chandelier! This one is from trendyvintage and has a "buy now" button for $129!!!!! what?! that seems GREAT to me!!! Maybe one of these days I can convince my husband to get in the attic to put the hook up in!




Check out these super cute knobs!!!! love them!!!! this ebay store is amazing!!! They have A TON of appliques for your every shabby chic need!!! love it!!!!


I just haven't been able to find what I should get!!! Check them out at Do It Yourself Chic.

Okay, that is enough dreaming for me tonight. What I SHOULD be doing is going through the bags of "goodies" that I have stocked up on for the kid's Easter baskets............but this is soooo much more fun!

Some of my FAVE goodies on Etsy...

I am taking a break from my sewing room to do a little virtual shopping! The kids are in bed, my husband is at his softball game, my friend is coming over to do a Bootilicious Buns work out video in an hour (we are getting ready for our 70's themed roller skating rink party in two weeks), and so what better to do with an hour than search blogs and etsy!!! Sounds wonderful!

So here is my list of WANTS/NEEDS...



I have 8 of these....and I am going back for more!!! LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!! Have them in the playroom, in the pantry for snacks, and now I need them in my kid's room!!! LOVE THEM!!!! Check out the pictures that The Lettered Cottage posted...such a GREAT idea! She is running a special that is so great! Buy 6...get 2 FREE at Coastline.



This clutch looks sooo cute! I wish we would get invited to a wedding soon, so that I would have an excuse to get this amazing beauty! She has a ton of great clutches at oktak




I am not a user of pretty soaps....I am a COLLECTOR of it! I love it! This looks sooo pretty and would look amazing in my kitchen just sitting there saying hello to me! :) Looks amazing from Bella Grace Designs.






Just makes me happy! Want to hang it in my daughter's room! Or maybe my bathroom. Just think it is nice to wake up to. Super cute at Sparkle Power and she has a bunch of other great positive sayings.

I had better get off now before this hour break costs me any more money! :)

Beach Stripes


I have always had a love for the beach. I don't mind the sand (unless it is in my mouth...that I can't stand!) and I don't mind carrying allllllllllllllllllll the items down to the beach that are needed to keep the kids happy. I love the feeling, the smell, EVERYTHING.

These images are what is keeping me awake today!!!
I LOVE this picture!!!!! I would love to go to the beach that has these set up!!!

I made these beachy pillows in honor of my love of Cabana Stripes.

My husband, Chad and daughter on our family picture day. LOVE this picture!
Collin about a year ago....but still one of my favorite pictures!!!!

I was thinking about the beach this afternoon and decided I was in need of a new frame. You too can get one of these here.
Off to dream of this Saturday when we get to head back to the beach!! ahhh!!!!
