Rethink Junk Visit

Yesterday my mom and I went to see this interesting place called Rethunk Junk. We LOVED it! This lady makes some beautiful furniture and we just gawked at how awesome her prices are. She has lots of furniture to pick from! Short ones, tall ones, big ones, small ones, black and white, red and blue. Everything was eye candy to me! I only wish I needed it. But, I will always follow her blog and keep her in mind when people talk about purchasing something new! This place was great. My mom scored three beautiful end tables for $125.00 total!

On another note.....I made my first goal with my new 31 Gifts business! Yay! Fireworks were going off in my world just two days ago! I am loving my new job and cannot wait till tomorrow when I get paid. First pay check in 3 years. It will feel good. Sadly, we have already spent the money that is coming my way on a NEW BED for my tiny tot. Now that she is getting a new bed, I am getting the itch to re-decorate her room. Which is kinda silly because we have only lived here 6 months and her room has a new coat of paint on it already. Oh well! I am thinking creamsicle for the walls. D is not liking that idea very much though. So, I am on the hunt for new paint and new bedding! Yep, I'm excited.

I know I have not posted about the party yet. I am sad to say that although it was a success, I failed to get some really great photos. I was just to darn busy. I will post a pic of her cute dress though. Once I wash it!

I wanted to share this blog with my readers. I have been following it for 2 years and I just really love what she has to offer. The store is in Marietta, GA which is close to me now that we have moved. Her prices are great and I would pretty much like to have just about every piece of furniture she has to offer. Enjoy this jewel of a website!

Almost Party Time

My little tot turned 3 on Monday and I have been preparing for her party for the past month. It is this Saturday and we are both very excited. I am so thankful that I bought things ahead of time as now would not be the best time to shop. (budget....arghhh) I have lots of decorations and drawings that I have been working on for her Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Party. I even made her a party dress (remember that red polka dot thing I mentioned in my previous post), which is cute, not the best made dress out there, but she is still going to wear it. I insist. Plus, she likes it because it has Mickey and the gang on it. I showed it to D and he smiled and then did his arm at angle to point out that it is not perfectly straight along the bottom. We laughed. Oh well, she is only 3! We will look back at the pictures one day and laugh together over her dress. I can hear her now, "Mom, what were you thinking!" So, pictures will be coming soon of her crafty party! Stay tuned!

Lots of Goodies

We have been in the market for a desk. I found this super nice desk at a consignment shop last weekend and I bought it right there on the spot! It was a great feeling and I was so proud of my steal, I mean deal. It was $80.00. I had a $40.00 store credit so I paid $40.00 for this solid wood desk that will last my baby girl many, many a year! Woo hoo! I am thrilled.

Next up, I took FULL ADVANTAGE of my Mother's Day Out today. I found this gem of a thrift store called Clothes Less Traveled. I stayed for an hour and walked through, slowly taking everything in. It was soooo nice. AND, I left with 7 clothing items JUST FOR ME for a total of $22.00!! A Vera Wang dress for $5.00 friends, Ann Taylor sweater for $2.00, Aerpostale Jeans for $3.00, just to list a few names for those brand kind of people. I tried to take some photos of my finds, but this was the best I got. I was not about to put them all on and try to model them for you like some people do. It would take forever, I had a hard enough time taking my cozy feet picture for the header!







Wondering what that cute red polka dot item is lying on top of the desk? Wait and see!!! More to come!!
