Chevron

  My daughter and I were shopping at Target the other day and we happened to walk by an aisle of dishes with this cute chevron pattern on them. Of course I had to stop and check them out. I peeked around the corner of the aisle and they also had chevron pillows which are now on my I must have this list! I wish I had whipped out my cell phone and taken pictures at the store! When I got home I went online to the Target website to check them out.

  I know I'm not the only one in love with this great pattern! I think a set of chevron pillows would look great on my new family room sofa! That lead me to etsy... I could spend hours looking at all the goodies they have to offer. Here our some of my favorites.

  Are you loving all the chevron as much as I am? Do you already have some in your own home? Leave me a comment or I would love to share photos of your space showing how you've used chevron patterns!

New year, new ideas!

  Sorry I haven't posted in so long. I have been spending lot's of quality time with the family. My husband took time off work while the kids were off school so we could all spend time together. The last two weeks have been so much fun, but they flew by much to quickly. My husband returned to work today and my three not so little babies are back to school tomorrow. Today we are just hanging out at home and catching up on some large piles of laundry!

  This year I have tons of decorating and DIY projects I want to tackle. I know realistically and financially some of the bigger projects like new flooring in our main level will probably have to wait.  However that hasn't stopped me from compiling a small okay not so small mental list. Right now some of those ideas include;

1. put finishing touches on family room (remember that list)
2. fence in our back yard
3. build a small mudroom in our garage
4. spruce up the couch in our living room
5. new window treatments for living and dining rooms
6. recover dining room chairs
7. paint and decorate basement family space including the half bath
8. paint vanity in the kids bathroom
9. organize my daughter Camryn's large closet
10. paint and decorate master bedroom and bath

  That doesn't seem too bad does it? It's only ten items! Just don't show my husband he only knows about 3.5 of these! I'll probably be starting off with the basement. I'd like to get that completed before my husband has his superbowl party! So I'm off to check on the laundry. I'll be back tomorrow!
