A few den accesories...

I've picked up a few accesories for the den that I'm super excited about.
I found this old chandelier at an antique shop called "Marche Noir".
I got a superb deal on it (which makes me even more fond of it).
A little black spray paint and Ooohhhh la la!
(Props to my wonderful hubby who re-wired it, hung it, and made it light up! Props to myself for not dropping it, while standing on a stool, holding it straight above my head, arms shaking, and beads of sweat running in my eyes.)

I also found these vintage locker baskets at another antique shop here in Tucson called, "The Paris Flea Market." Old wire baskets are my thing (and purses too).

I've always admired apothocary jars and finally bought myself a couple. Man, these things are expensive! Luckily I finally used the gift card that my dad gave me to Pier 1 over a year ago. Thanks dad!

More Pier 1...gotta love it!

Free Valentine's Day Cards.

Do these just scream cool or what? Jenn over at Ambrosia Girl designed these and is offering the free download on her blog. The perfect little notecard to spruce up any Valentine's day gift. Thanks Jenn!

I've been a bad blogger. Been extra swamped with life. No posts at all last week...sorry!

Had to share this cute moment since so many people seem to comment to me about it. As you know, Matani is my little fashion accesorizer. It's a little after 7pm and I just put Matani down for the night (yes I put my boys down at 7)! Jake was walking by M's room and poked his head in to check on him. Jake then came in to me and said, "I just saw Tani laying on floor with his arms stretched out on top of his clothes to check and see if they were properly aligned." There you have it folks...not only is he a fashion guru but a perfectionist too.
