Yellow and black obssesion.

Yellow is one color I would have never dreamed of ever decorating with. Conjures up memories of my dad's 70's style kitchen with gold/yellow formica countertops. In fact, I'm not quite that fond of the color by itself. Pair it with some black or gray and now it's all over my house.

Promise found this cabinet at Savers for $80.00! I'm loving her addition of the gray stripes and spray painted pink horse !

I'm desperately looking for the fabric used on the window shade. Gold star for the person who comes up with the source?

Thrift store lamps.

For the past two months I've been eyeing these lamps at my favorite thrift store. They were priced at $50.00 for the pair which was an okay price but still kind of pricey for a thrift store.


Then I saw the same exact lamp featured on Decorno (work of Angie Hranowsky) and I knew I had to go back and snatch them up (if they were still there). To my suprise it was "Half Priced Monday" on all lamps and picutres. So I got them for $12.50 each! SA-WEET!

Also, thanks to Suertica for spotting these nifties at Decorpad.

Sucked in.

3 guesses as to what the holidays have consisted of.
1. "Just one more chapter."
2. "Is it already 3:00am?"
3. "Edward"...swoon!
After I turned down three invitations to go see New Moon a friend finally loaned me the Twighlight book and told I HAD to read it. So that I did. In two days. Then straight to Blockbuster to rent the movie. And then the next book. In two more days. Then I went and saw the movie BY MYSELF.
So much for my elaborate plans to do all kinds of home projects. I may be m.i.a. for the next couple of weeks while I stay up all night devouring the next two books.
P.S. Happy New Year!
