Coffee Table: Before and After

Between working, moving into our new place, weddings, pillows and studying for the CPA exam, the bf and I spent our non-existent free time working on revamping the Craigslist coffee table. It took us over a month, but we did it! By golly, we did it. Before

Supplies

After!

Voila!

Will we do it again? Umm..yea, I think we're addicted now.

Is it my birthday yet?

I just love this delicate necklace from Etsy seller VintageMusings.

Soup's on!

Another successful weekend

Yes, that is a 12" version of Elmo as a pinata. He is currently holding stickers for my little nephew Nathan, who's turning two in a couple weeks!

We woke up early Saturday morning in order to get to the LA fashion district downtown before traffic (you gotta love that LA traffic) began. We were able to pick up 40 yards of fabric for only $50 to make the curtains in our new condo. That's right - fifty buckaroos! We made out like bandits. We walked a few extra blocks to pick out a pinata, and although I loved the giant giraffe, I knew Nathan loved his Tickle-Me-Elmo back home.

We also managed to pick up this gorgeous arrangement from Dandelion Ranch.

This looks like heaven

When I (finally) get settled into the new condo, I swear I am giving this a try.
