Target Haul

A quick stop at Target for Kleenex resulted in this! I don't mind :)

Entrance / Foyer Makeover

Our new home is still a work in progress but last night we made a dent in it. We have this little entrance foyer by the main door which is not big enough for a lot of drama but just right for a little something something. I finally spruced it up a bit and its amazing how small tweaks here and there make a world of a difference. I scoured this restored wood beauty at Home Goods over the long weekend. You should have heard my squeal of delight. Only my daughter can tell you! So enjoy the before and after transformation pics via my trusty iPhone.

Art for the Kitchen

When I came across these botanical art prints on Etsy, I knew they were perfect for my newly remodeled kitchen. And oh they look so good! I placed them in Ribba Ikea frames and now they hang gorgeously on my kitchen wall.

Herb Garden

Over the weekend, I did a bit of amateur gardening with the help of my trusty assistant. She had fun playing with the pots and not having to hear a 'NO' every time she picked up dirt. Now that is a toddler's dream come true! We planted cilantro, parsley, basil, mint and a few succulents. I'm watching over them like mama bear and hoping they don't die on me.

Dinosaur DIY

I always wanted to try this out, so I did and I love how it turned out. If I had my way, I would spray paint everything I found.

Supplies:

  • Lime Green Paint
  • Dollar Store Dinosaurs
  • Some scrap paper to put down

Try it out. It's addictive!








PS: Make sure you spread that scrap paper all over. I landed up with paint on the concrete which my husband did not appreciate much (ahem!). Oh well!
