Week 4 Random Pinehurst

Thank GOODNESS
a certain someone
outgrew this habit


I mean, when the dog does this
it is one thing
but when people do it...

I'm just saying.
It is a hard habbit to break a brother of.
That cotton must feel so
GOOD
on the tongue though.
I suppose.

How I Spend My Time v3

This is a series.
It isn't necessarily about how I spent my time this week.
These are just the photos that show a glimpse into the rest of my life that happens offline.
Just tidbits of things I love.


 I love foggy mornings.

I tend to want to keep this blog all DIY and vintage and home.
But ya'll are nosey (smile).

So I thought I'd show you a bit more around my life.
In small doses. 
Because, frankly, it overwhelms me sometimes too.

Enjoy!

Week 3 Random Pinehurst

I really miss
having a tiny
puppy dog
in my lap



You know
the little cutie that
had puppy teeth
that could gnaw at those
puppy toys
rather than MAUL
the basket they were held in.

Found and Used | Lovely Linens

I am a sucker for the bed and bath section of any thriftstore.  Well, really the bedding.  Mostly because I have 4 extra bedrooms in my home that I'll never sleep in, so I don't have to get all creeped out with the whole "I don't want that to touch my skin" thing that I get with bathroom goods.  Which.

Really doesn't make sense.  Because I have at least two bathrooms I don't ever set foot in.
So I could fill those up with good stuffs too.

Hmm.

I'll have to try to settle that tension in my mind.
Or I will never be the same.

Anyhow.

I picked up these pretty pillow cases

Scallop Edged Pillowcases
Intl District Goodwill, .99 each

And used them in this bedroom
(the Mother In Law Suit extra bedroom)

Crocheted Pillowcases
Intl District Goodwill, .99 each

Which is also home to this
hot. mess.

Or.
Art.

You decide

Ikea Chest of Drawers
Mother in Law Suite

Right.

Week 1 Random Pinehurst

Can't say I'm not jealous.

Best. Christmas. Gift. Ever.
So happy she is still here.

Around Pinehurst - January (I think it's a tree)

The only thing better in the world
than a thrift store out of season get
is a Freecycle "we can't fit it anymore" get

One of several Christmas Tree Stash spots - Storage room, Pinehurst
Photo (c) b3 home designs

Technically, I should probably be the one
giving away a tree that doesn't fit anymore

I got the tree
which, yes, has to be stashed in three different places
what??  why are you looking at me like that?

I got it on the roadside
from a house that was pretty big
from a posting that said something like
"moved into new place, tree is to big for our space"

I have lots of space. (LOTS!)
and I have a need for 3 trees

One is always live (Preferably from Ikea)
One is always live (preferably, chopped from a tree farm)
One is always fake (preferably, a tall skinny)

But, see.  This year, we put the doggy door
in the wall for my old downstairs spot

And the doggy that goes through that door
She has a liking for trees (the real ones, and the ornaments)
so I had to move the stair landing tree
to the guest room

Where we could never see it

So I moved the above tree, to my bedroom
Which was actually really fun

But also, obnoxiously big
It pretty much filled up the sitting area
Which is the size of a small child's room to begin with

Lesson of the day - beyond being too tall for a space
trees can also be too wide for a space.

Hmph.  Who would have thought it?
I DID finally get this tree up. 
And it was gorgeous all aglow at night.

Happy January!
