My New Project!


I picked up this little beauty in disguise at a garage sale for 10 bucks! I did a little research and it appears to be a vintage jewelry box, but nothing came up exactly like it, so we aren't 100% sure. I thought it would be perfect as a side table to hide away magazines and put coasters in the shallow drawer. The box part isn't attached to the rot iron stand. So far, Jeffrey and I have sanded it down and stained the lid. I had no clue how difficult and how much work sanding stain off would be! It will be so cute when we finally get done. I am so excited! I also picked up a mirror at an antique flea market last weekend for free! I will post new pictures of our work in progress with the table. More posts soon!

Meet Peyton

Peyton is 11 1/2 months old and so full of energy! With his 1st birthday approaching there is so much to do and not enought time in the day! As of right now, I am wanting to do a sock monkey theme, but there are no sock monkey themed party supplies anywhere! As always, when I get something in my head I usually don't forget it! That means I get to be creative and make up everything as I go. I will take pictures of the party in a few weeks and post it!
