Oh washi tape how I love thee! In the beginning of the year I made this planner to house all of my daily to-dos and ideas. The cover was just stained and plain. It was pretty but needed more.
 This is where the washi tape came in. It just sticks to the cover perfectly. On top of it I added the ‘looking forward’ rub-on.
 So easy and simple.
 For the inside I made planner pages and tabs to make it complete.
Enjoy your weekend!


Dresser make over

Last weekend I was given this dresser. We were in serious need of a dresser for our room and my Dad just happened to have this one in his shed. It was my grandparents so that make its extra special 🙂

Now its the perfect grey to compliment our room. And bonus my dad even had the paint so it was 100% free to us! Score!


Finding Balance

On my quest to find balance in my life I realized I need to change the way our home is functioning. In January I made myself a list of all the projects I wanted/needed to get done around the house. I’m finally getting around to staring the list. First project is the biggest: redo the guest room. So far our “guest room” has been a catch all for anything we don’t have time to deal with. I’m done with that! It’s not too often we have a need for an extra bed but the option would be nice. That way if anyone has too much sangria at a scrapbook party they can just stay 🙂 The whole time we’ve lived here I’ve been thinking and planning what I want it to look like. Here are a few inspiration pics.

As you can probably tell it’s going mint! The only problem is finding that right shade. Do you have any idea how many shades of mint are out there?!?! A lot! My goal is to paint this weekend. I’ll post pics of the progress. See you tomorrow for new item Thursday!

This month I will be starting New Item Thursday! Every Thursday I will be listing at least one (hopefully more) new items in my Etsy shop. There have been so many ideas swirling around in my head and I can’t wait to share them! Here’s a little sneak of the covers I made for my Park City album:
Check back each week to see whats new!

Sad day

Today I was saddened to hear the news of Jr Seau’s death. Being born and raised in so cal (and obsessed with football) he has always been looked up to in our house. My first thoughts were what could have made him do that? What could be going through his head to make him kill himself? I am so sad for his family and friends. And all the football fans who looked up to him.

It just proves that money can’t buy happiness and that things aren’t always as they appear. Take a minute to tell the ones you love how much they mean to you. You never know how an “I love you” can brighten someones day.
