Furniture Delivery!!

So my furniture came yesterday yay!! I changed my furniture because my home is a small craftsman style home and the furniture that I had prior was from my apartment when I was single, but since I am married now five years, this year its time for new beginnings. I guess with that set being from when I was single, it might have some stuff on it that I am bringing into my new marriage which we don't want. So now that we are starting with new furniture who knows what God will bless us with perhaps a baby!!! I just truly believe that when you are starting new beginnings you must start with everything. My life for the last 2 years have been just that new beginnings.

Although back to the furniture; my husband and I decided that we would spend our money wisely and we wanted good quality furniture.  After re-arranging our room and with the choice of furniture and Thank God for a huge closet, we cut the furniture in the room to one large dresser,  two nightstands and platform bed that has six large deep drawers underneath. Thus letting us get rid of the tall Chester dresser.....Yesss that freed up space for a cute little reading corner with my bose.com media player with iPod dock. The room is still a work in progress but we couldn't be happier.

                    so cute, love the green chair if you keep reading you will see why.

                                             these lamps are so gorgeous kirklands.com

My old set I would store my scarves (I love scarves) in plastic totes that slide on wheel directly under the bed. I can still do that and fits perfect....although no more bed skirts, really didn't like them anyway collect to much dust. The bed has 3 of these deep drawers on each side.

My husband even got a chance to get (2)....Lol
 

So this is were the green chair came from, I wanted a accent color without painting a wall so I pulled the color from this picture threw in a few green pillows and I love it.

 

Have a great day!!!

XOXOXO

 

                        Speaking of new beginnings also loving my new hair cut for 2014

God has been so good to me and my family I am so grateful for all the many blessings has given us, looking forward to more. Staying in His will and His presence.

 

 

 

Stencil Job...

Hello,

 

Excited my stencil arrived last Friday, only took 4 days for it to come from royaldesignstudiostencil.com my husband and I went to Home Depot and got the stencil paint. I have learned a lot with this whole process basically is read and research. The paint I choose why by Martha Stewart metallic glaze in Vintage Gold...OMG! it is going to look dynamite.

  Elegncia is the format we are using.

Because it was my first order the company sent me a free stencil,

this will look great when I do a kids room.

Lots of instructions and how two's and 10% off coupon.

 

Enjoy your day

XOXOXOX

 

Weekend fun...

Lazy Sunday!!

 Preparing for the big snow that's heading our way...ugh!!! But I am not going to complain.

 Had a great weekend very busy, went furniture shopping on Saturday afternoon. So the sales guy named Randy that greeted me & my husband at raymourandflanigan.com had no idea what he was in store for. Long story short 2 1/2 hours later I walked out with new bedroom set and mattress (king size). It was so needed my husband and I have been using my bedroom furniture from my single days 6 years ago. My husband is 6' 4' and I always wanted a bed with footboard, but he don't fit the bed of that choice so scrap that dream..... Prayed for tall husband, prayers answered Thank you Jesus just a little compromise. So we got a nice set that fits my craftsman style home, keeping with the style of the home it will look great. In the end Randy the salesman made a commission, we got new bedroom set great price and Randy the salesman had to take a long break after dealing with me!

Smooches!

Love my Bathroom!

Hello Everyone,

So I am re-doing my bathroom colors, I used to have everything in beige and green and brown. I wanted to have a spa look, so I changed the colors to a nice light teal, white and brown. Still keeping the brown in the bathroom because the tiles are brown and the wall colors are a light tan. I was shopping around for a stand to put my soap displays on and scored a chrome and glass stand from JossandMain.com this website has some of the most gorgeous items for your home. The teal towels I scored at tjmaxx.com only $2.99. I also ordered a stencil because I am going to stencil the wall behind my tub....I cant wait ordered the stencil last Saturday on royaldesignstudiostencil.com the stencil is called elegnecia...Ooohh! I will show you the finish wall soon as the stencil arrive today!!

        This is the wall that I will be stenciling this weekend during the snowstorm we are suppose to be having...hopefully it won't snow. The chandelier came from  overstock.com for $97.00 its absolutely stunning!! will give details on how me and my husband will achieve the look with stencil fingers crossed....

my teal towels and teal bath salts and apothecary jars give the any room elegance.
 Thank you tjmaxx!

getting my spa look for my bathroom! because my bathroom window is big and my neighbors can look right in, I bought a piece of frosted applique from homedepot.com for privacy.

my cute chrome stand from jossandmain.com $49.99, love the soap in apothecary jar looks great.
Have a blessed and safe weekend!

Shopping and more shopping

Hello,
 just enjoying the fruits of my labor that God has truly blessed me with. Ordered my new business cards for new business excited.

Lately I have been experiencing colors with my clothing just having fun with different prints. I have also been catching some killer sales on the web. check out talbots.com for some great winter clearance clothing. I got $99.00 dollar sweaters for $20.00 Yessss! this is the best time to shop for winter clothes for next year, and since its still cold here in the Northeast - you can still rock those boots, sweaters and coats. Check out the cute vincecamuto.com booties I got online they were priced at $149.00...Yessss! I paid $39.99 chocolate leather and suede and the gold buckle just makes them look fabulous. The chocolate leather (butter soft leather might I add) came from talbots.com priced at $499.00, I got it for $209.00  & snatched up a few 100% cashmere sweaters also that were marked down from $179.00 to $65.00 and the great thing with these sweaters is they transition right into the beautiful spring weather.....OH I am so happy!

Go shopping and get great clothes for a penny of the cost....sign up to receive emails from your favorite stores and they will let you know when the sales are coming or going on. Then pull out that card and get the best deals; and if you order a certain amount some of the websites will even provide FREE SHIPPING...who doesn't want that!!

Happy Shopping...
XOXOXO

This was my Sunday morning photo shoot, on my way to church. I mixed classic prints with leather and looked great.
