Recycled Bath Mat
Awesome idea for a DIY bath mat that looks all lush and cozy for the tootsies. Plus it is a great use of worn out towels, and a fun project for lazy nights in front of the boob tube. :)
lap top
Wow - I have not been on here for a while! Stinks when life gets too busy to blog...
ANyway, now I have some time to covet objects I can't have. Like for example, I now NEED a lap top (preferrably a MacBook Pro) so i can house it in one of these lovlies...

Our new room
Our bedroom was driving me NUTS - it had too much furniture, was arranged all wrong and generally made me cranky. So I convinced Chris to help me move all kinds of furniture, take a dresser out of William's room, and bring one down the basement. (I think he was tired of listening to me complain about it!) Then I found some curtains at West Elm (on sale for $10!), got a mirror at Winners and some stuff at Ikea, and after another long weekend of work, we have a new room! It is SO much better, it now makes me happy to be in there. :)
Fresh flowers always help...
One of my all-time favourite things about the room is our gallery-style wall of art and photos. I had been wanting to do this for a long time, and the walls in here are so nice and long, they seemed like the perfect place for it. I looked at a LOT of examples online, laid it all out a million ways, and Chris painstakingly hung everything just right.
I think it turned out great. And a bedroom with a huge window - what a novelty!
A closer look at the things we hung.

How awesome are these shoes? Some dude named Okat painted these and I think they are awesome. I woudl lvoe to do a mini pair of these for Will and watch him try to figure it out. :p
Rock ON.
The most necessary "design" element in any kids room - FOR SURE.
Found on Ohdeedoh, where it is point out that they would also be awesome in a pillow fight. :) Made by The Grateful Thread.

I have a feeling Sue Mott would "like" this site. The "Blog" of "Unnecessary" Quotation marks. For those grammar geeks out there, you can upload your photos of blatant quotation mark misuse to be mocked by all. Here are a few examples of the photos and the commentary. "Enjoy."
So we had these bottles of grape juice and they expired, so we just re-sealed them with a cork and they are in this crate. buy it!
Audrey saw this at the hospital. I guess somebody is disgruntled about not being treated like a real employee...
calling it a "business" day does not imply that we actually do business on those days.

I was inspired by some of the design blogs to look on Craig's list for a buffet for the living room. Imagine my glee at finding this gem for $75, and not to far from me! Any others were at least $300-500, and not nearly as nice. (There is a LOT of junk on Craig's List!) So here it is, in its happy new home!
Mona Lisa Chair
Not sure if these are comfortable (are any folding chairs?) but how fun would it be to take the 'art' off your wall and turn it into a chair for your guests? That's right, a lot.
