Six Years



We celebrated our sixth wedding anniversary this weekend. I think it's been our favorite anniversary so far. We didn't go on a special getaway or even out for a nice dinner. We were home the entire day working on the nursery and it felt wonderful.

Our vision for the nursery has evolved over the last several months. This has been due to our budget and the decorating resources that are available. And as all of our house projects go, we've been following our instincts along the way.

But I'm so thrilled to say that Hubby has finished the painting, the wood floors have been mopped, and today the antique French armoire was moved in. Everything else will hopefully come together very soon!

A lot of the final details are now dependent on the postal system. This is because I've tried to avoid the arduous task of driving into the city and have ordered several things online. Not too long ago, a trip into the big city was something to look forward to. But at seven months pregnant, my feet begin to swell and my back begins to ache just thinking about it!

Happy October wishes to you. xo

Link Love No.25!

Wow, 144 links this week. Thank you all so much for participating and sharing your work with everyone. I thoroughly enjoyed going through the links but it is very difficult for me to find the time to leave comments on every single one.

I hope you will understand and still come back to next week's link party!

Here are the projects that caught my eye this week...

I am usually not a big fan of yellow, but this Rosette Decor Ball is so darn cute!
Sounds like it took All About Mommies a really long time to make this, but the result is stunning, great job!


Mandy's Yellow Corner made a really pretty decor from a plain, simple door. It was amazing to see the step by step pictures on how the door was transformed. You are very skilled with a paint brush!


At Second Street made this super cute eyelet dress. I love everything about the dress, I need one for myself!


I believe she is new to this link party, I visited the link and I love what I saw! 612 Riverside posted several different creations on there, but my favorite is this bracelet. So unique and different, I love the warm colors too.


You have to check out this dress by Aesthetic Nest... the dress is vintage style (which is pretty already) and she added farm animal applique around the edge of the skit. How unique and pretty.


There are many talented people out there; you guys are one of them. Thank you for visiting, I will see you at my next post!

{ Chandelier }

It all started in Ohio.
At the Country Living Fair.
I met Sue Whitney of Junk Market Style.
First, we were lucky enough to hear her speak at one of the seminars.
Then, I met SUe face-to-face in the Gorilla Glue both.
Then...I deleted all my pictures from the weekend.
{of course, right?}
So I have no photos to show you of Sue's fabulous dishwasher chandelier, I know, what?
{but, I'm sure she post about it soon on her blog}.
Anyhow, just minutes after experiencing Sue's fabulous Harvest Table Talk, I found this ~


gathered my tools


screwed these little do-dads in the ceiling
