From Headbands to Hair Clips

Before my baby girl was born, I made her a ton of hair bows. She wore them all really well for the first 11 months or so at which point she started pulling them out. If I clipped something in her hair, she would leave it alone (for the most part). So, I upgraded most of her headband hair bows into hair bows that clip in her hair. It took all of 5 mins to do. The longest part was waiting for the glue gun to heat up! All you need for this project is hair bows, a glue gun, glue sticks, and clips. Here are all the bows before ~

Bight and Happy Room Design Board

Last night I ran into Joann Fabrics and saw this fabric. I feel in love with it at first sight! Since I couldn't stop thinking about it, I came up with this simple mood board for any room adding in color and accessories. 

Baby Room Fabric

I've been trying to find some fabric to make curtains for my baby's room and I'm having no luck! The walls are green, the furniture is white, and there are pink accents on prints in her room. Lately I've been thinking about using this fabric for the curtains.

Jewelry Storage

Today I thought that i would share with y'all how I keep my jewelry all organized. I first made a covered a bulletin board in fabric, then hung all of my necklaces and earrings from clear pushpins. I love that my necklaces are staying tangle-free! I put some bracelets, watches, and rings on the long silver tray in front, with more bracelets in a white bowl. So many pretty colors to look at all the time.

Weekend Progress

As promised, here is the next update on the big patio project. We were able to get the 2 large rectangular areas done Friday afternoon right before the rain hit. Here is what we have left to lay - the circular walkway!

Patio Paving

The hubs and I worked on laying some pavers last night, this morning, and afternoon for a little while each time and I'm excited to say that one area is 90% finished and another should be 90% finished this evening! All finished except for some cuts that we'll have to make around the edges. Then all we'll have left is to re-do the walkway around the tree! 

Patio Update

Yesterday I left you with this look at our patio project and since then we been digging, digging, and digging some more. Here's what it looks like as of right now

This past weekend, the hubs and I decided to do our first big home improvement project of the year - extend the patio! Here's what it looked like when we first bought the house 3 years ago -
