Christmas Decorating!

 Merry late Christmas!! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season! This post is super late, it's been a busy couple of months! Here are a few pics of our Christmas decor. The Christmas banner above we made at a Relief Society activity. The little red ornaments hanging on the mirror I bought from Michaels for $1.

 

Those cute little glass presents I bought at the dollar store a few years ago. I printed out the letters PEACE on some cute Christmas scrapbook paper.

 

The little gift boxes on the right I bought at an after Christmas clearance sale at Wal-Mart. Yes, everything in this was super cheap. That's how I roll. ;) 

And last, but not least a picture of my little kidlets. I love this picture! I want to blow it up on a canvas and have it hanging by the tree every year. I love the magic of Christmas through Childrens eyes. It's amazing!! I'll post my Valentine's decor soon. xo

Stella's Vintage Green Dresser!

 So I know for a fact that I took a before picture of this dresser. However, I can't find it anywhere! Not on my phone, not on either camera, laptop, it's gone! Boo!! At least I have the after pics, right? This adorable vintage dresser is for the cutest little girl named Stella. How cute is her name?

 I went back and forth on EVERYTHING for this dresser. I tried multiple colors, three sets of hardware (and eventually went back to the originals), distressed it lightly, then decided to add more. Even the hubby helped on this one.

I think it was worth it though! I love how it turned out! These pictures aren't so true to color. It's more of a bright green. I hope she loves it!

Trendy Grey Entertainment Console

 I bought this console awhile back. It's been sitting in my garage halfway painted for months, that's how I roll. I love it! Of course I want to keep it, but there's no space. :( Anyway, I was originally going to paint it black, (surprising, right?) but after priming it grey I decided it had to stay grey. (notice how my grass is green again? yay!)

 I love the hardware! It's so unique. I decided to lightly distress it.

I love that this piece only has a little bit of detail. Sometimes I love a lot, but on this piece I really like that it's minimal. I'm also working on a dresser for a little girls room that I'm excited to post when it's done. I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Btw this console is for sale! If you're interested in it, let me know. 

Thanksgiving Buffet Decorations!

 I think this is the first year I've actually decorated for Thanksgiving! Don't ask me why. I'm glad I did though! I just made a quick burlap runner, printed out some letters to put in cute frames, put a glass pumpkin in a hurricane and found a cute little owl. After some blog-spiration (I made that up! With my luck someone's already made that word up though. ;) I decided I wanted a neutral colored Thanksgiving and I'm loving it!

 Why didn't I take more pictures?? I love this little owl. Found it on clearance at Kohl's. I wish I'd taken pics of our Halloween decor too. It actually looked really cute this year. Next year..

 I've also been working hard on improving my photography skills. Here are a few pics of my beautiful kiddos. I might not leave them up for long, but I'm super proud of myself for how they turned out. I love this first one of E in this amazing Oregon apple tree.

 Here's my L, isn't he sooooo handsome??? I love this face.

Another fave, love this little princess. Hope everyone's doing well! Happy Thanksgiving!!!
