I love Friday and so should you!
I went to a blogging meet-up a few weekends ago and a lot of lovely ladies I met were talking about their link ups and High Five for Friday posts so I was inspired to do my own and link up! Welcome to my first High Five for Friday post — aren’t you lucky! Continue reading →
I hate to say it, but I think I am becoming the queen of unfinished projects.
It’s not my fault! I start something and then I have to go to work, or go to bed, or do something and then it takes me forever to get back and finish what I started. Continue reading →
The following is a guest post from my bestie Amy. I think her apartment is totes adorbs so I begged her to do a little house tour post for me so you all could check it out. Enjoy!

I suppose I started collecting silver platters and trays when I started making little bathroom tablescapes. I bought my first one at Goodwill and used to hold soaps and clear canisters for cotton balls and things.
