There’s a new place in St Petersburg worth checking out. As you may have guessed from the title, it’s called Brocante Market and is filled with more vintage goodies then you can imagine. It’s like the perfect estate sale, with the bad stuff already thrown out. Yes, it’s that good. This past weekend was the […]
Tree Branch Curtain Rod
Have I shown you my tree branch curtain rod? No, no I haven’t. I was going to share pictures of it once all the walls were painted, but that day hasn’t come and I am getting awfully impatient. You may have spotted it here, here, here, or here, but only a peek isn’t good enough. […]
Estate Sale Goodies
I don’t go to estate sales often. It’s always a hit or miss kind of situation and frankly I would rather spend my Saturday’s at a park with my children. Despite all that, last Friday I found a listing on craigslist for an estate sale less than 5 minutes from where we live. So I […]
Dining Table!
I never thought I would be so excited about a dining room table. It’s nothing fancy and not extremely stylish, but it’s a proper dining room table, minus the actually dining room. You see, I have been on the lookout for a table ever since I’ve realized how useful they actually are. Before I had […]
The Adventures of Boop, Nani, and Peanut Butter: A Life Lesson From a Toddler
Philip had an idea to start sharing little tidbits of our lives titled “The Adventure’s of Boop, Nani, and Peanut Butter”. Isabelle is “Boop”, Eliana pronounces her name as “Nani”, and Nani calls Elijah “big brother”, but it sounds more like “Peanut Butter”. Now that we have who’s who out of the way, let’s get […]
Chalkboard Train
You guys, I hopped on the chalkboard train… I finally did it. Boy am I glad I did, and so are the children. You see, chalkboard-everything has been on Pinterest since Pinterest has been Pinterest. Whoa, take a breath. So after resisting its influence for a solid year, I finally caved and made our household […]
Dealing with Stinky Cloth Diapers
When Eliana was a wee baby, I used cloth diapers and took good care of them. Every two-to-three days I would wash them and sun dry them. Fast forward passed cloth diapering a toddler to now, and you will find at least one week old dirty diapers in their wet bag, waiting to be washed. […]
June Thrift Store Finds
Would you look at that, it’s the second week of July and I’m sharing June’s thrifted goodies. That is definitely an improvement from last time around. Aren’t you proud? I’m going to let you in on a little secret, I didn’t find this table in June, but I did completely forget to share it with […]
Framing Children’s Art
If you follow my on Instagram, you may have gotten a peek of Eliana’s first painting. I was just as excited as she was. Yes, I am one of those moms. After a few weeks, I thought it was time to show off my toddler’s masterpiece. So I took this not-so-great paint chip art… and […]
May Thrift Store Finds
Look here, it’s July and I’m finally sharing my thrift store goodies I found in May. Very timely, I know. I will refer to this as fashionably late. Don’t worry though, I have some great finds to share with you all. Plus, I’ve already scored some great things this month that I get to share […]
