We're Back!!! Finally...

Okay so i promised that as soon as my ginormous work International Convention was over i would be a better blogger, and be a better blogger i shall. I just needed about a week to recuperate and i'm feeling almost as good as new!

So in this past month not a ton has happened, but it sure feels like it to me. Yes, we got new nightstands and i'm so thrilled! i love having our lamps by our bed instead of in an un-permanant home on our dresser. So i can almost say that our bedroom is done, but as cliche as this sounds, a room is never complete right?? I need to figure out how to have someone photograph our apartment, or someone to edit the photos that i will attempt to take....

We have a couple projects in the making, mostly having to do with painting furniture, so nothing new, but it might take a while for anyone to be able to see them, including us.

One thing that Chris has gotten way into is having plants in the house and i love it! I recently bought him some organic herbs and not only are they adorable but they are quite delicious and cost effective! I love being able to literally tear cilantro from a stem in a pot on my own kitchen counter and throw it on the cutting board! Hello, best thing ever!

Well while i keep you waiting on pictures of our humble abode, i thought i would share my most recent purchase as of 5 minutes ago with you since it's so great.....

Isn't it perfect??? Yes it's velvet, and yes it's slate! And yes, it was only $16.99 at World Market....you can find it here. And then there's the thing i wish i could have purchased to go with it, but this one not as affordable so not as attainable, for now anyways....

Also at World Market, but this time for $103.99....so if you are a better saver than i am, you can find this one here.

Just on a side note, i do have to say that i have piping down now, and by that i mean on pillows. I found some fabulous blue velvet that i had to make a lumbar pillow from, and it is fab....

Pictures to come....i promise ;)

  1. Glad you're back! I love that blanket, too, but really...why do throws have to be so freaking expensive?! Lame!
