December is a crazy month. Love it. Don't understand why it goes soooo fast. Faster and faster the older I get.
Now I sound old.
Anyway here's a little of what I've been up to the last couple of weeks. Monday and Tuesday after New Year's Weekend I started the "deep clean" and some organizing. I found some ikea bookshelves on craigslist for Samuel's playroom. I've been dreaming of these shelves for a couple years, so I was so excited to find them for a steal on craigslist. I've also wanted to get some shelves & baskets to organize my kitchen a little better.
Thanks to a Target gift card for Christmas all my dreams came true!
thanks marj!

Kitchen Shelves
The other small project I worked on this weekend was making cake plates. A few months ago I went to my new favorite store - SAVERS (it's like goodwill or DI) anyway I found some cute plates and candlesticks with hopes of making cake plates to handout Christmas treats.
Oh that darn road paved with good intentions - I know it well.
No treats were handed out. . .but I still wanted to make the cake plates.
I think they turned out pretty cute.

Love it all!! I got those fabric boxes from target for Kade's room and the more they get pulled off the shelf the less square they start to look. I didn't realize they would do that or I would have made them be more careful with them.
oh my goodness!! I seriously love those!!! You oh so talented! Samuel is getting too big, love his playroom, esp the shout out to missouri! Love you!
go Lori! You are inspiring. Your house looks great. January definitely brings out an organizing/declutting/redecorate bug I think.,.at least for me.
DON'T GIVE them away!! They are SO cute! What do you mean you made them? Explain! :) Why can't we live closer? I am ready for you to move back here!!
Those r cute! I've tried that before too. Savers was key.
