Mad for Plaid?

It all started for me when I laid eyes on these plaid chairs...

They just do something for me and I have been trying to think about how I can incorporate plaid into my house without making it too "country."  Plaid can and has been done wrong so many times.  I have this guest bedroom that was inspire by the color of this room:


And it would really look great with a hint of plaid somewhere.


Perhaps a lampshade?

Or a plaid blanket/comforter?

Who knows what will happen, but I am pretty sure I'll be getting my tartan on pretty soon!

Get Fly

In the words of Atmosphere, my old childhood dresser just got fly.  I completely redid it and it only took a few hours.  I got the piece when I was 10 years old, and it has served me well.  I didn't want to ditch this faithful dresser, so I just gave it a good paint job and some new knobs.  The piece was painted white after two coats of primer, but the inner front edges were painted navy blue to give it a little character.  I'm digging the brass ring knobs.  I figured they would be pretty easy to come by at Home Depot, but I had a hard time finding them.  I got them from a random online hardware store after a lengthy google search.  I love them!



I haven't figured out how I want to style the dresser and the picture isn't the greatest, but whatever.  I got excited and wanted to show you.  Have a fabulous Thursday!!!!!

Love.




First,  I have the most wonderful husband ever.  He won the Awesome Husband Award twice this week!  Here's why:

  1. We were at the lake this weekend and I dropped my favorite earring right next to the dock.  Boo face.  But my totally sweet huz went diving and searching at the bottom of the lake until he found it.  It was a very pleasing experience.
  2. My brake pads were non-existent and made a hideous rubbing and dragging sound on the way to work.  Mr. W bought me some new ones and spent the evening changing them for me during a severe thunderstorm so I wouldn't have a carless weekend.  Awesomeness...
I love his face more than words can express and its super hot how handy Mr. W is.  Its pretty great getting to be his Mrs.

P.S.

Eye candy for you.  I'll be showing you my version of this soon!
