Chic on a Shoestring Decorating Feature!

Oodles of thanks over to Kate at Chic on a Shoestring Decorating for featuring my $10 DIY Upholstered Headboard in this week's episode of Flaunt it Friday! 

I'm pretty honored to be in a league with some of the other AWESOME stuff that's up there: 

In LURVE with this chalkboard wall. Woah. Structured *check* Bold *check* Versatile *double check*. Dear owners of House of Chic and Penoche, I will be arriving on Thursday. 

Bold (and home made!) curtains by A Thoughtful Place.  Love those stripes!

So, Kate - THANK YOU! And congrats on reaching 1,000+ followers! If you haven't checked out Kate's blog, Chic on a Shoestring Decorating, go now! (But don't forget to come back! ) :D 

Have a great rest of the weekend! I, for one,  need to go mix up some more glaze if only I could peel my lazy butt off the couch... 

xo,

Stylish Blogger Award!

Wowee, do I feel lucky! Many thanks and virtual hugs over to Tara Lauren at Lauren Lane Decor

 for bestowing upon lil' ol me the Stylish Blogger Award!  

Now, I am informed that part of the responsibilities of my title (joking) are that I need to share seven things about myself. Ah, my public wishes to know more. 

1. I make more messes than I clean up 

2.Up until a year ago, I had no idea I was crafty. Other than being kickass at the Social Studies Fair  (1st place, 7th grade, woot woot!) 

3. Coincidentally, that may be the last time I've won anything before today! 

4. I am by no means a morning person. Never was, never will be. My college roommates and husband can attest to this. 

    5. I like Harry Potter. I am not ashamed of this. 

    6. My favorite place on earth is the Alameda Flea Market in Oakland, CA. Brats and $5 suitcases. Yes and Please.

     7. I REALLY like blogging and meeting all of you has been SO much fun! Thank you so much for everyone that's come by and I love hearing from all of you. 

Two blogs that I'm really digging right now are: 

Mandi over at Vintage Revivals

She's got some really excellent tutorials and projects that I can only describe as "ballsy". And that's a VERY good thing.

and

J over at J&J Home

Haha it's a yellow and gray day, isn't it?! She's a fellow South Floridian who blends DIY with Mid-Century style, and totally owns it.

xoxox,
