Happy Weekend

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. I'll be back next week with more great post and a few updates to the Shoebox Decor Etsy store. As you can tell by the above picture I'm still loving green walls. I'm trying really hard to get hubby on board the green train but it's a no go so far. Maybe I'll wear him down this weekend....Happy Weekend Everyone!

Lost In The Web

After what seemed like a decade, I do believe I finally have a website that won’t make me lose sleep at night. I’m not going to go into the details of what it took to get the site looking this way but I will say there were a lot of road blocks seeing as how I’m not a web designer. If you do not have an existing hosting company and you are looking to design a website yourself, then I do recommend using IM Creator. Great and simple place to design a website but you have to host it with them. Even with all the road blocks I’m still super excited about how the site turned out. I love the fact that it’s easy to navigate and pull information from. I hope you guys like it as much as I do! Happy Designing Everyone!

Happy Weekend

I'm so excited the weekend is here. For some strange reason this week seemed to go by really slow for me. Yesterday sped up a bit and I was happy to attend a wonderful event hosted by HipSwap and Flor. Some amazing LA designers, Jordan Cappella, Kelly Edwards, Henry Road, Turquoise and Woodson and Rummerfield's displayed vignettes of items that will be available on HipSwap. I'm still new to the HipSwap thing but for those of you who have no clue what it is, I like to think of it as an upscale craigslist. They even have delivery in select LA areas.

As far as the rest of my weekend goes I think I will be staying in. My commitment to being a social butterfly in 2012 is starting off great but I don't think my body is all too happy with this resolution. So what are your big plans for the weekend?

I Love

As most of my close friends will tell you, I like to drink. I also like to give wine and alcoholic beverages as hostess gifts. I believe it's a great way to say "I know how hard it was to plan this get together, now sit down and have a drink. You deserve it". With all that said, you can imagine my excitement when I came across these Personalized Chevron Wine Bottle Tags by Letter Love Designs. How cute and stylish are these? You get 6 for only $18...I'm Sold! Now instead of looking like the chick that always brings wine, I look like the stylish chick that always brings wine...Happy Shopping Everyone!

DIY Lamp Shade

Re-covering a lamp shade is not as easy as you may think. If I didn't find this amazing video I do believe I would still be lost. I re-covered these lamp shades for the teen project with my Fletcher fabric and I think they turned out great. If you have any questions about my experience feel free to ask. And in case you were wondering, the gorgeous lamps they are sitting on top of are from ZIA•PRIVEN...Happy Crafting Everyone
