Guilty as charged...my lovely Mondays have been on a bit of a hiatus. Between working extra hours to pay the bills --until you all start ordering handmade goodies from me-- & life in general blogging has been neglected. I'm not proud of it but am prepared to redeem myself. This Monday I want to share the plans I have for my living space.
{1} Chairs a la Craiglist
I snagged these antique chairs a while back on CL with plans for them to be my first experiment with Annie Sloan's
Chalk Paint. If you aren't familiar with this product please refer to my very enthusiastic
post about this amazing discovery.

Arles=vintage mustard shade that = LOVE. |
{2} The Key to Even Cuter Chairs
Giving these chairs a fresh coat of paint will do wonders for them but this adorable fabric I snagged on sale @ www.fabrics.com to recover the seats will make them suitable for resale. However, I'm keeping them :)
{3} Cheery Prints
Have you noticed I have a thing for yellow? While I always have, I feel as though my newfound self has made me embrace bright hues even more. I'm going for a teal & yellow theme in my apt's living space along with some grey to keep it from getting too busy.
{4} The Furniture
I'm in love with my coffee & console tables from
World Market and my couch from LazyBoy (of call placed). I'm very proud to have a few pieces that aren't from a thrift store or handed down. Don't get me wrong, I love those things too but there's something to be said when you are able to purchase non-IKEA furniture; it feels so grown up ;)
{5} Sea of Lovely
Ok, so this really has nothing to do with my living room but I'm finally going to start making tags to put on my handmade items. Thanks to my baby sister, Jenna- the artist, I have this gorgeous logo!

What do you think?!! Adorable, right? |
With that being said I'm really going to start putting myself out there in the months to come so if you have any requests for things you'd like to see my make or possibly buy, let me know!!
