FURNITURE FEATURE FRIDAY |
Tonight is my 15 year anniversary, so I’m taking the night off! I handed the “picking of the favorites” off to Abbe, our primary educator for Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint. She’s all-around awesome and a lover of furniture as well, so I knew the picks were in good hands. Here she is… Hi Friends! […]
more finds & the holy grail
I unpacked and tagged some more of my finds from Friday. The contents of the box I unpacked were wrapped in a padded, bluish-green plastic. As soon as I unwrapped the first piece, I realized what they were – disposable, absorbent pads. Also know as “wee pads.” As I was opening everything, I couldn’t help […]
fun finds & help wanted
I don’t know about you, but the whole “sping forward” thing messes me up for a week each year. This morning I could hardly keep my eyes open as I made lunches for the boys. Jeff took them to school and I crawled back in bed. By the time I dozed, did my workout, showered […]

I’ve been a bit under the weather today, so I didn’t get a chance to pick favorites for FFF, but I hope you enjoy the party just the same. I look forward to picking some favorites next week! Here are the rules for our furniture get-together… 1.) Your post has to be about furniture. Please, […]
Cabinet up for Auction
I was recently asked if I could donate something to a local private school for a fundraising auction event. I sort of hemmed and hawed over it and dragged my feet. For some funny reason, I felt like I didn’t really have anything to donate that people would want to buy. I know. A lot […]
