a fabulous balloon speaker

I've been keeping a watchful eye on this cool gadget the music balloon speaker. I found it in the gift section at West Elm for a whopping $45. Ok, so the price tag is a little ferocious!!! Unlike you rich folks out there, i wait awhile for the price to drop. After waiting and waiting... and waiting, West Elm sent me a nice Christmas gift card. Uh yeah, a gift card. The first thing I thought was Yuen'to Music Balloon!! I couldn't wait to pick out my cool music balloon:D. After I payed $22 for it, I didn't feel guilty one second for buying this awesome speaker. It fits perfect on mp3 players and of course my beloved iPad (thNx kEn). I picked the green one. If you decide to get one, you won't regret it. Ta ta for now!

Thank you God!

Ok, so I posted earlier about West Elm- gotta love this store! Let me rewind: Today I reorganized my linen closet and realized I didn't have a lot of extra blankets or sheets. While waiting for a table at Coastal Flats how could I resist not going in West Elm!! I went to their sale rack and to my surprise they had blankets, throws, sheet sets, quilts, duvets for only $4.97!!! Although I didn't pray to God for a good deal on linens, I made sure to thank Him while in the store. They looked at me like I was nuts!! I really didn't care:-) by the way if i had paid full price, my items would have come up to $689.94- but I paid a whopping $36.53.

Carrots!

The girls walls are painted "clay", but it's more like carrots. It's totally bright! I like it and the girls like it, too!

Finally a master suite...

When my husband comes home and says: "The room looks nice... It's coming together." those words are a breath of fresh air! After painting my room gray (or grey) the color has added so much character. I always try to add a personal touch to every room... over my bed I painted the two birds perched on a branch ( me and kenny lol). I get all my ideas from: HGTV, Pottery Barn, Crate&Barrel, and West Elm. The best places to purchase items and refurbish them- Craigslist and yard sales. Kenny never seems to see my vision when I bring home an ugly piece of furniture! He likes the results though:-)
