If you know me, you know that I love shabby chic and vintage items. I feel that I have become a bit obsessed lately. Jaron will tell you I have resorted to bringing home junky things that I find for free and also sending him out to fetch things I find for free on craigslist. I just really feel that I have found my style and I want that to be reflected in my home. I think it is so easy to bring something back to life. If something has good bones or lines, it is easy to remedy by adding some elbow grease and paint.
I have also really felt super creative lately and want to be sewing all the time. I really need a weekend to myself so I can work on something for more than 5 minutes before breaking up a fight, grabbing a snack, or comforting a crying child.
I came across this blog yesterday while searching the internet for new ideas. I love her style and she is super creative while also being frugal which is what I hope to be. I do not have much money to spend on things!
Avery is heading off to spend the night with Grams and Papa today so hopefully Riley will take a nice long nap so I can have some time in my sewing room!

Hey Jenni!
I have been feeling crafty/creative lately, too, but just haven't had the time or energy or space to do anything, and it's driving me crazy! I love the shabby chic/vintage stuff, too, but you'd never really know it by the way I decorate, and I'd love to change that. It would be fun to be surrounded by the things i love so much, especially since I'm home all the time. Isn't it fun when you find a style that you like?!
I want to see your house and all the things you've been collecting! And all the things you've been making or want to make! I LOVED that last project you posted about, maybe you should do a tutorial! Keep showing us all your things so I can be inspired! :-) Have fun, and I hope you get lots of time this weekend to make stuff.
Also....I couldn't get that adorable little button to work on your post, could you share the website you were trying to direct us to? Thx!
