DIY Button Deer Canvas

Today was such a perfect day full of fun and laughter.

My brother and I played in a creek,  

the weather was perfect,

I even got a new camera lens,

and it all ended with my family sharing 

onion rings and pizza at a cute local restaurant.

Ladder Bookcase

I can never pass up a good deal, 

especially if it's a $10 antique ladder!

I knew the ladder obviously was in need of 

a new coat of paint, but I hadn't 

gotten around to painting it until today. 

We had perfect weather, 

I had a new camera I wanted to try out,

and my mom had just painted my room 

while I was recovering from my surgery 

for the past two weeks. I couldn't resist starting

 to decorate my newly redone room.

Chalkboard Wall

I have been in the process of redoing my room

and it seems like it is finally all

starting to come together.

I wanted to make my room a little more

"grown up" and satisfy my need to 

turn my room into 

a Pinterest-esque dream. 

I also thought that toning down the bright

walls would make it easier to 

"redo" my room again if I got the urge to

change it all again.

Chalkboard Painted Mug

I know that it's a little belated, but my friends and I are celebrating Christmas tomorrow...

I'm sure that you're thinking that it's a little crazy,

but it's a good thing for me because I couldn't think of ANY ideas!

2013 Memories

Whew! 

I hope that y'all had an awesome 2013.

My year was filled with many GREAT memories.

I wanted to do something cute and simple to remember 2013, so

I thought and decided...

 nothing could be better than filling a mason jar full of my fun memories!
