When daily our SD weather is so perfect... last night we played outside with the boys until dark....
.....I wonder how people live in the cold....I have been in snowy areas and was in snowy SLC last week and it was so beautiful but I just can't imagine having to wear coats and gloves and warming up cars trying to manage little kids in snow suits, pushing a grocery cart, getting your mail.....and how do you go to yard sales and eat at outdoor cafes in the snow??? I have a new found respect for those in the Midwest and east who take this all in stride....
Isn't this a little beauty....very old and in great shape...$9.95 at the Thrift store...it is perfect for the little alcove turn on the bottom of my stairs....some sanding, a coat of white paint and some distressing and then it will be a perfect little addition....not sure what I will put on top of it just yet....any ideas???
A wonderful door stopper Fleur de Leis (this is a funny story, Kristen had seen it there earlier in the week and almost got it for me but passed at the last minute - I am glad it waited for me!) I think I will paint it dark gold and sponge on some black paint texture....and 4 really unique and beautiful glass candlesticks for my craft projects....this entire group was $14.00 and once I washed those candlesticks they really sparkled!
Also bought this other very heavy 2 tiered table (on the right) that I am not sure what to do with but I have never seen a heavier table and it is old, old, old....it was $3.95
We all had bouts with the flu over the weekend - it was ugly....all slowly recovering....hoping to stay healthy and get some projects done!
