So many cute things on Etsy.com!!

So I found a really cute site this morning....!!

Not Etsy. (But mostly ALL of the items that people posted there that I had thought were amazing came from Etsy. :) The site I found today is called Must Have Cute, and it is strictly for the "Too Cute" items. I had soooo much fun just looking threw all of the pictures of what people thought were cute. Some I totally agreed with..... Like these!!!!

cute kawaii stuff - Epicute: DIY Rock Candy
Remember making rock candy as a kid? It was like magic! Making candy from nothing but sugar and water! Of course we did it on strings and never had any flavors or colors. This is some fancy craft time right here. I think I need to get back to doing simple crafts like this, so fun!

And these....Penguin Paper Clips!!! Totally unnecessary I know, but still....

And I would almost agree to another hamster in our home with one if these!..... Almost ;)
cute kawaii stuff - Hamster Racer Set

And I saved the one I loved the best for last! I LOVE this pillow/chair so much....and wanted to get it for my daughter for Christmas, but they want $750 bucks for one!? Good luck with that peps.......
Too bad though. I think she would have loved it.
cute kawaii stuff - Nap on a Short Stack 

Okay.... Now for some of the ones....that were NOT so much my taste. Lol Not to judge anyone here.... Just not my cups of tea. :)

But come on...... On what occasion would you wear this exactly?
cute kawaii stuff - Sweet  Head

They called this guy the "Little Wounded WamPAL"..... Ooooookay
cute kawaii stuff - Little Wounded WamPAL

And last but not least on my AllllllllllRighty Then List:
(I really have no words for this one.....)
cute kawaii stuff - Monster Hunter Pig

The site I got all of these images from is musthavecute.com . :)
Highly recommended if your ever bored and want to look at some really random images...(like I do) They have a TON of sites connected to one another that all have some pretty strange and funny images on them. I had a blast. :)   ******Except for the cat site. That was just a bit strange to me. lol Just my opinion. More of a dog kinda gal.***

Hope you all have a wonderful and completely random day. :) If you've read this, then I'm sure I've helped with that....

I Need Your Input! ... Help!! : )

Hello there!
So, it is Sunday morning...and I am about to get going on my photo wall project for the first time this weekend. Very exciting!! I had wanted to dedicate the whole weekend to it....but, yeah. I have kids. ; )

Here is where I need some input:
I am going to go look at the wallpaper ideas later....and it is a HUGE commitment! Because in order to change it out I will have to remove all of the frames. Good thing I thought about that now and NOT when I have already glued them up! HA! I can see me using a whole bottle of wood glue on one frame...just to be sure, only to realize that I have to get them off later for a new theme! ; )

Here are my thoughts on what I want..... Any suggestions??? I am torn.

#1 Something simular to this... With only black and white? It seems to be the safest bet, but I really wanted it to be fun too. Hmmm


I LOVE this one...


Or #2 here.... would look so cool with the frames and antique pictures on it... But I am not sure if I should commit to such bold colors? It might clash with the colors of the first wedding that wants to use it?
Or lastly I've thought of something like this... #3
Which is truly very antique-e... Lol Very vintage. But again, I am afraid of possible color clashing?
So please let me know what you guys think!! I think I have been thinking about it too much. :0)

Oh! And I've (Well, my hubby mostly and I) have gotten the frame almost done! So that it will stand up on it's own... I am soo excited. I will have to post some progress pics soon.... Just promise NOT to look at the dirty yard behind the project, kay? ;)

Here is a picture of the original idea... Just incase you needed to know what the heck I was talking about. :)
Thank you for your input and I hope you all are having an awesome Sunday... :o)

DIY PhotoWall Project!

So my photowall project is officially underway! Check out these shots I have for my inspiration….. I am soooo in LOVE with this idea. I can't wait to get started!!!




THE POSIBILITIES FOR AMAZING SHOTS ARE ENDLESS WITH THESE THINGS!!




Here is a copy of my current DIY checklist of supplies:

 Two huge pieces of plywood
 2x4’s for the A-frame stand
 Really amazing old fashioned wall paper
 Cheep/cool thrift store frames that I can strip down, spray paint and attach
 Glue… Lots and lots of glue
 Thrift store antiquie looking pictures (Or maybe print some awesome ones out from the internet and just buy the frames at thrift stores.)
 Spray paint

So…I’m sure I will need a lot more then this, but it is my starting point!! I am off Home Depot to buy the wood today!! I am so excited. I’ll let you know my progress……. Wish me luck!
