Living room redo

We moved a few months ago and here is what our living room looked like before:
And here it looks like now:


I made a lot of the items so it took me awhile to get it all put together and put up. I pretty pleased with how it all turned out.

I have plans to put up some white shelves on each side of my wall collage. But we have a lot of other big things that costs some $$$$ so my pretty shelves will have to wait for awhile.

I hope to also get a nice big area rug to put in there too, but that too will have to wait.

Easy Peasy Handmade gifts

I saw this very cute gift idea HERE and just couldn't pass up on making some of these. So I headed to Big Lots and the Dollar Store and got some hand soap and fake flowers.
We had some ladies help with a church function recently, so I made a little tag and dropped them off. I must admit they were a big hit! (and for a good price too)


All you need to do and remove the labels, push the flowers down with a skewer stick and dress it up how you like, then give them to someone special.
