Hutch Heaven

Recycling Old furniture is very hot right now.... but especially for Hutch's. If I had the space, I would be jumping in on this too.I especially LOVE it when wallpaper is put on the backs. Check out a few of these gems:

$49 Chandelier!

I love THIS chandelier from Pottery Barn Teen. There is only yellow left, but it's a killer deal, and would be easy to spraypaint if you'd like.

New Goblets

I had a Pottery Barn Gift Card, so I ventured on up there and found these smoke Rustica Goblets on clearance for only $4.99 each. I bought 8 of them..they are nice and thick, have a slight textured ( handmade ) feel to them. They also had Purple and a lime green ..

Goblets!











I have always loved colored goblets, and it's a bonus if they are etched with a design, like the blue or green ones. Not only would they look fabulous in my china cabinet, but they'd be so nice to have out for special guests or occasions. I think I shall add them to my Christmas list...

Sale!

Horchow.com's entire site is on sale 25-30% off...til Nov 10th

Flameless Candles

Well, I've jumped on the flameless candle bandwagon. They are perfect for my lanterns in the entryway, they have a timer ( come on same time every day for 5 hours ), they smell like vanilla, and they have a flicker. I got 3 of them for $19 at COSTCO. This is the cheapest they get folks!

Hope you all enjoyed your Halloween!

Lets be real...

I'm going to show you how far from perfect I am.

Dining room pic ( that was in the NEST MAGAZINE )
What you DIDNT see: ( plastic over the chairs, my cat went to town with her claws...)
What was:
I looved this popcorn rug, but after about 6 months of owning it, it shed like a beast, and my cat peed on it so many times, that I couldnt keep up with it. She thought it was a giant litter box. So I had to throw it away. Such a waste of $200.

I'll have more of these types of things to post I'm sure.

Wish List Party

VintageJunky is having a wishlist party! I had to join in on the fun. I could go on forever, but I'll try to keep it minimal. :) This is my current list.
First and Foremost, a Range Rover.
Pepper mill from Ikea



PB's Emma Rug ( no longer made )
An Apothecary CabinetBellesol Mirror from Ballard
A hanging bed for my trellis ( or a upstairs somewhere...)
An address embosser ( random i know )
This track lighting for living room

Mirrored Advent Calendar ( they had them at Target last year...)

I need a pedestal table for my entryway
Sputnik Style Light for my upstairs
Marianna Glass Chandelier ( possibly for my bedroom )
My forever home to have an infinity pool and a view.
oh, and to have Jeff Lewis design my house, and Nate Berkus decorate too.

That's all for now, but of course there's always more.

Check out the Pottery Barn Clearance...

Tile Print..( again! )

Even Bed Bath and Beyond is jumping on the tile band wagon with these bath towels..

PB Sign

So this Pottery Barn Sign was $649...and is now $99. I dont know what's more shocking, the before price, or the after!? Good grief!

*edit* they must have had a glitch, because the "before" price is now $129. But still!

Great Scent!


I am verrrry picky with scents...but this one is my favorite Pier One Scent, "Oceans"...it's clean and does not give me a headache! The Diffusers are amazing, by the way...and currently the old design of them ( shown above ) is on clearance!

Here's my porch, I took it on a gloomy/rainy day but you get the point. More pumpkins to come :)


On another note, I love my nightstand. I love my grandpa, so there's his pic, I love my silver clock and lamp, and i found that little wood dish at a thrift store ( it was super junky and i refinished it ) for 99 cents. To show that I am human, I didnt realize it, but there's an ibuprofen pill under the clock. Forgot to edit that one out ;)
