WHEW what a weekend!!

Hope every one had a great weekend!! I know I did!!

Lets see:

Saturday I slept in thank goodness. Shopped at Michaels and came home and got down to business....and by business i mean painting. A friend of mine's daughter is turning 1 I happened to have an extra kids rocking chair hanging around and so I went to town!! Girls are sooo much easier to do things for then boys wow!

Mind you out here in the lovely Arizona desert-it was 103 degrees on Saturday. UGH. and my painting had to be done out side!! And here is what I have so far-still needs little details but all in all I think it looks pretty dang cute if I do say so myself!

                     The start of the chair-I had to Kilz it first as I had previously attempted something on this chair


                              The Princess Crown-Im not an artist but this was hand drawn no stencils

                                                         AND the semi-finished product!

So that was project #1 {actually it was the only real project I actually worked on}

Project 2 is an old frame I bought at my FAVORITE store-----GOODWILL! Yes I LOVE goodwill! Its kind of ugly but with a lil paint & some additions it will be just what I want. Pictures of the before & after to come soon.

Project 3: Something I learned on my new favorite site!
Terrible picture but you get the idea! Instead of having my bags {this is only a small portion of bags I have} laying around on the floor or having them get mis-shaped whatever you hang them from shower curtain hooks in the closet! So SIMPLE so stupid but yet such a great idea. I loved it and had to do it. AND the best part is I only paid a DOLLAR for it!


So that was my Saturday.

My Sunday was such a weird day! Went to church then headed over to ULTA to take advantage of the breast cancer awareness deal!! Breast Cancer is something that hits a lil too close to home for me and my family! I love seeing people come out and supporting the cause! I also needed a major change with this hair of mine. But in the mean time of waiting for my turn. I had a great lunch with a friend at my utmost favorite place Souper Salad! YAY! Also got a lil shopping done at the dollar store and big lots.

Then it was time for the ulitmate change to my year!
WHOA major change. But i am LOVING the change!!

Then I went to a farm and got some pics!





Ended my evening with not feeling too great. So off to take some medicine I went and snuggle up in my airconditioned apartment with my big comfy blanket!

My Monday has been a Monday! However, I just tried my hand at some home made white chocolate chip brownies?!?! we shall see.

Off to take an exam and hit the hay!
