Judging from my recent obsession with antique trunks, you can only imagine how excited how excited I was when Tucker and I found this at a garage sale this weekend for 3 dollars!!! Its a little roughed up, but after I clean it up a little, it will be perfect!


Also, I'm always redoing the desk in my entry way. This is what is going on right now...Mom got me this ADORABLE mirror for christmas. My clock collection is growing, as well! Check out that little guy!

Just a quick update for now. CHECK OUT THAT BEAUTIFUL OLD CLOCK. I love finding steals. Also, I love having Phil to haggle for me!
Added the photos I stole from Philly chessesteak to my bathroom. Really digging them, but not sure about the layout..
I really wanted to add some photos of my plants, but its raining cats and dogs outside today, so maybe later.
In the meantime, you can check out this crazy caterpillar I found the other day!

My First Post!



Alright, Mom, you win. I will continuously update you on all things decor in my place. From taking my first baby steps at Round Top to hitting up Goodwill twice a week with a white paint brush in mind. Maybe as this blog progresses, you will be taking ideas from me! Alright, alright, I pretty much owe it all to you. I admit it.  

Take a look of what I'm working on:


To Paint or not to paint, that is the question, and what color should this desk be!
I'm digging this chest so much. Goodwill has been raising their prices, but i splurged. $16.
I am contemplating this area a lot lately. It is missing something. Oh, and my guitar is in the way. 
I'm so stoked to finally get all my pottery barn bathroom set up. Even more excited that I got it labor day weekend so it was a sin it was so cheap! And, of course, the containers are from goodwill. Mhmmm, so nice to have a shelf finally.



 FINALLY got to hang my obscurely sized Italy print my Mom got me. I got the frame from goodwill and you can't tell here, but I antiqued it with some light sandpaper. You have no idea how many frames I had to measure until I finally found one that worked. 

Work in progress is all i have to say. Love the basket there. The green thing over the couch is an awesome 2ftX2ft pottery barn pillow case I got for 5 bucks. Woo, cant wait to fill it. Of course my wonderful William Sonoma rug I got for $17 (you should really befriend your pottery barn employees). This is one of the things that really gets my giddy. And then i have these new sage green square boxes I put near the front door. Mom, you may recognize those candles in them. I would really rather not talk about the couch. Yes, comfortable, but it totally throws off the awesome vibes of this room. BLEH


On to the Outside!!



Oh how I love my new aloe vera plant! I just need some more soil in the pot! haha and how cute is my new $2 watering can. love it!

 

I love the bohemian feeling of this hanging pot. And pansies are so cute. My house is begging for a power washer to come visit (hint hint). Also, I'm on the lookout for a piece of stained glass where that chain is hanging to the right of the hanging basket.


Thats all for now! 
LOVE!
