I have a bathroom storage problem … a guest bathroom that I love but it is TINY. I have been looking around for a way to create some storage without adding any cabinets or furniture to the space … as there just isn’t any room. I saw some vintage baskets hung on the wall over at Miss Mustard Seed. I love the look so I started shopping around. I looked and looked … and found nothing. Everything was too big or too small. Then I stopped by Wisteria and found these … perfect.
They were easy to hang and work perfectly!
This bathroom is really hard to photograph. I tried to get a shot of the entire bathroom, but always back into the wall in the hallway … no more space! Here is one side of the bathroom…
And the other side …
Tomorrow I will threaten remind the kids not to hang on the baskets!
I am a big fan of Pinterest … by big, I mean I could spend 19.5 hours a day pinning ideas, recipes and cute outfits. Addictive! I have been pinning diy projects for a couple months and have accrued quite the collection. The problem is that I actually want to do ALL of them … but I can’t. I don’t have the time! So I have to choose one project for this week … that is the hard part!
Bathroom Storage from the one of my favorite blogs … Dear Lillie …
Or the perfect door organization idea for my craft room by Brooklyn Limestone …
Such a hard decision … Stay tuned to find out what I decided!

It takes me a while to decorate. I am not one of those super talented people that can shop for 2 days and …. ta da … new room! It takes me months. I shop everything from antique sales, garage sales, discount stores and more. Sometimes I am not actually looking for something to buy but for inspiration. The good news for my family is that the inspiration finally hit me a couple nights ago … and I finished my corkboard wall … mostly. I am sure I will add something in a couple months but for now … it is done!
Have a great Wednesday!
I haven’t shared much holiday decor lately so I thought I would share our Christmas mantel. I love decorating the mantel different every year … but still using a lot of the same decorations. The color scheme is fairly neutral with a little bit of green and sparkle.
I ordered the stocking from Garnet Hill a couple years ago after Christmas while they were on sale. They are a super dark navy with a green piping trim. LOVE them. This year I didn’t use traditional stocking hangers, but instead bought some Scotch brand removable plastic hooks. I placed them flat on the mantle, hooked the stocking and then covered them with a bit of greenery.
The Happy Holidays banner is an after Christmas find from a local craft store from last year. The cream reindeer is from Wisteria … love everything about Wisteria!
The acorns are from Natalily Designs. Our Elf, Criddle, has been watching over everyone atop his reindeer friend. Tricky little guy.
On a side note … Has anyone else been using the, “Do you want me to go tell the elf what you just did?” line. It is very effective.
Happy Thursday!

I like to keep my mantle fairly simple … mostly black and white. Out of a mild case of laziness, I use the same backdrop for pretty much everything. Then I add little bits of whatever holiday we are celebrating … Halloween.
In an effort to not buy anything new this year, I decided to spray paint a few items that I already had … and give them a little update.
I added a few Halloween decorations on my dining room table as well . I found the antique milk bottle holder on a recent shopping trip. Stacked a couple old metal sap tins in each hole and filled them with candy and glittered skulls.
Now if I could just get the candy to stop disappearing!
I am almost done with a project that has been on my To Do List for months! Here is a sneak peak …
I am finished it up today!
Happy Monday!
I have a major MAJOR love for all things Union Jack. (see here for proof) My sister knows this … and having just spend a couple weeks in Europe with her family … saw this and knew I would love it…
Wooden Union Jack Bunting … Seriously! If I knew this had existed, I would have bought it long ago. It is absolutely perfect. Now … to find the perfect place to hang it!
So do you love Layla Grace? Trust me, you do! Why? Because they have this…
