This past Friday we celebrated Ridley’s 1st birthday with a party! It was so much fun and very low key. We invited immediate family and Ridley’s BFF Savannah and her family.

Last Minute New Year’s Decor

December 30, 2009
Photobucket

It’s almost 2010 y’all! Doesn’t it seem a little weird? Like we should all be flying around in space capsules? Maybe I’m just getting old!
Anyway, on to the good stuff. Prince Charming and I are hosting a New Year’s Eve Par-tay! (Almost) all of the the Christmas stuff is put away [...]

Cute NOEL

December 17, 2009

After I decorated the chandelier with candy canes, this window (that I dug out of the trash, frugal, right?) looked quite lonely and forlorn.
After brainstorming, I decided that I would purchase letters from Hobby Lobby to spell “Noel” because I already have “hope” and “joy.” The letters were only 0.99 each! I spray painted them [...]

December 17, 2009

This time of year brings with it an event that holds a special place in my heart – gift wrapping! Yes, and it’s so special that all of the gifts remain unwrapped. Ha! Seriously, I love, love, love to wrap gifts. Maybe it’s the OCD part of me that loves straight [...]

During a recent episode of un-intentional brainstorming (why is it that I can intentionally brainstorm and never think of anything?) that I came up with this awesome plan for decorating in our dining area!
What do you get when you put 36 candy canes (only 0.88/box) and clear fishing line together?

Beautimous.

Pottery Barn-ish.
Fabulously Frugal.
A Candy Cane Christmas!
Now…Go [...]

It feels SO good to have finally finished decorating our home this year. I just haven’t been in a huge hurry to get everything decorated after Thanksgiving – not sure why, but happy about it.
But it’s done and I’m quite pleased (and excited) about how everything looks. Prince Charming pulled out the decorations on [...]

Frugal Thanksgiving Centerpiece

November 19, 2009

One of my favorite things to do is decorate — my home, the homes of others and for events. It is my goal to be as frugal as possible when decorating. I like to “design on a dime” without it looking like I did!
I scour thrift stores, yard sales and TJ Maxx for versatile items [...]

October 9, 2009

It was so fun to host my sister’s baby shower at my home last night. We had such a great time! It was so nice to visit with both old and new friends. Kelly got a bunch of sweet gifts. Several were handmade…so precious.
