Some place to store the booze.

Recently I've totally been head over heals in love with the idea of a glamorous ( throwback to the sixties) bar cart!  

Check out a few of these gorgeous ways to store your boozes!

This one looks so pretty with all the Christmas decor!

So it's been decided one of my next home purchases has to a fabulous bar cart!

Now I just have to find one in my budget....

What do you all think, do you like your liquor out in the open?  Or hidden behind the closed doors of a cabinet?

Glamorous Holiday Wreath!!!

I finally finished my DIY Glamorous Holiday Wreath!  It took me a few days, and several trips to every craft store in the area, but I did it!  I also managed to wipe out every  little square mirror in three cities!  Well it was definitely worth it, and will be a new favorite wreath for years to come!

Here's how she went together!

I bought a 16" styrofoam wreath at Michael's, and laid out all my little mirrors first so I could make sure that the placement on the ring would work.  I initially was only going to mirror the top and had plenty of little mirrors for that, but I decided to keep going, and thats when I ran into a problem finding more mirrors!

I then used a mosaic glue to hold them down.....that had to dry for 5-7 hours before I grouted the ring!  Long wait time!

Here she is just about done, what you can't see is that I ran out of my smaller mirrors on the other side!

This was all after searching for them in three stores!  I didn't know each store was only going to carry two or three packs of the things!  But I made one more trip, found some mirrors, finished up the grout, and here is the finished piece!

I LOVE how it turned out!!  I can't wait to get our tree this weekend and see it surrounded by all the Christmas stuff!  We only put up a real tree and I wanted to wait an extra week to get it this year as it is usually just about dead by Christmas, when I get in Thanksgiving weekend.  So next weekend will be a BIG decorating time for me!  I can't wait!  I've pulled down all my Christmas boxes, and have put a few things out, but really the tree is what usually starts me every year, so I like to wait for that!  I will post pictures of the goodies when I get them all up and out, and of the finally home for my new wreath!  I'm thinking it will look gorgeous under a swag of greenery! 

How about you guys, are you all ready for Christmas, or are you like me, just getting started?

Oops....I ran out of supplies again!

Hello everyone!

  I hope you all had a fantastic Holiday weekend!

  I had a bit of a crazy week myself last week.  After multitasking to the point I forgot about the sweaters I was hand washing in the bathroom,  letting the water over flow the sink, which in consequence flooded the floor with several inches of water.  I decided it was time to take a break.  I couldn't very well take time off from work, as you know in retail this is kinda the busiest time of the year!  Sooooo I took a little break from projects, to just relax, and spend time with Josh and the family. 

I must say it was very nice to just chill!

But, I couldn't stay away long and I am now ready to get back to my many projects!

One I have been working on today......and I am very excited about it!  I will only show you a little peak because I ran out of supplies and didn't finish it.  I have made TWO trips to TWO different Michael's Craft Stores today!  I still ran out!  Oops!

Here's what I'm working on!

I can't wait to show you finished pictures of this!
