Fah-ree... FREE! and GNO wknd

I am now the proud owner of two lovely matching chairs off the side of the road as of today... complete with their son, a side table. (I'm not even going to ask how two chairs fell in love and made a side table, but I can't say that I mind!). I saw the posting in the 'free' section of Craiglist earlier this afternoon.. lucky for me, it was 2 minutes from Jeremy's apartment!

Excuse the quality of the pic... it's from Jer's phone.. I wish I had a picture of the chairs. :(

This weekend, I am going down to A&M with my girlies to visit Kayla! I'm so excited!! FAME, Midnight Yell, sleeping in, laughing till I pee (or Natalie pees..sorry!), my last weekend with anything other than water to drink, FOOD, long talks, pillow fights... wait. that last one wont happen. ha.. 

I CAN'T WAIT!

K for Kimber

I had the day off today so I headed to Hobby Lobby for no reason whatsoever. I love to just get lost in that store.. I'll stand in the isles holding a couple of my favorite clearance items in my hands trying to figure out they could possibly fit together into one piece of art. Today, the paper mache letters weren't on sale, but they were cheaper than some I've seen at Joann's. I grabbed a 'K' and wandered around the store for another 20 min. thinking of ways I could make it cute when I ran across some scrapbooking paper in the clearance section... most of it was ugly grandma paper that really should never come back in style.. but then..... I saw this paper! It matched the colors of my room exactly and was so cute! I grabbed 3 sheets at $.35 and made my way to the front.. I looked down at my phone and realized I had been in there for an hour...ah oops! (Today I am supposed to be studying for my Microbiology lab test.)

I put my finds together and here is what I came up with for around $4:)

I saw one like this at Anthropologie not too long ago and loved it but I didnt feel like paying $50 for it.

I also found this frame for $.50 at a garage sale this weekend and put it on my wall with some old notes Jeremy wrote me about 2 years ago :) I bought the letters for 'LOVE' at Hobby Lobby not to long ago and painted them this weekend an orangy-pink color to match my bedding. The wall is a work in progress.. I plan on getting more frames and other cute wall art pretty soon :)

LOVE this.

so simple and so true sometimes...
