Getcha SEXY on!

 Hey guys, I'm so excited! I just learned about editing. I feel like man discovering fire for the first time. Honestly I could just twinkle all over myself! Remember the pictures that I should you the other day. Well, I spiced them up a little bit. See how cute they turned out with their little arrows and their Polaroid frames! Lord, Jesus, can I get a AMEN up in here people!! I have so much joy in my heart, that I think it may explode! It maybe a good idea to take another BLOOD PRESSURE PILL! Is it just me or did we just go down south to a Baptist tent revival and someone just got saved y'all! Hallelujah!

 Now let's go get this blog's sexy on! Deuces!

Two heads are better than one!

I want to know if any of you had any ideas...I want to use these framed silhouettes  as a "His" and "Her'" bathroom towel holder. I got the idea from

 320 Sycamore

However, I just wanted to know if anyone had a different approach to this concept. Instead of just a frame and a hook, I would like to come up with some sort of a towel rack. Ideas please!!!

 

Help needed...Vote for the color you want to see!

So what color do you want to see?  Here is the fabric I am using for the curtains, this might help you make a decision. Also the handles on the dresser are a brass/gold color and will be kept original.

 

 

 

 

 

She's got LEGS. She knows how to STAIN them!

What's up you wonderful people? So I have BIG news! I can cross off  #14 on the o' resolution list. I was so excited when my mom bought me this awesome footstool, for only $3.00. It had a hole on the top and some pretty gross looking legs! But hey, it has potential!









I first started the project by taking the legs off and putting them aside. Then I brought out the wire cutters...because that's all I had, but hey it did the trick! And boy, did I pull the staples out...Geez!

Then I took the casters off and they where gross...but with a little T.L.C. I mean C.L.R., they shine up like a new penny.

Then I sanded down the legs. I liked the natural look but, I had an idea...

              That's right...I added INSTANT COFFEE and a little water, and Voila! I got stain!!!

I guess all legs look a little bit better with a tan! LOL! Then to seal deal, I sprayed them with a clear gloss.

 

 

I had my mom sew the piping on...it took forever! 11 hours...no joke! I really thought my mom was about to throw her sewing machine out the door. The fabric was so think, plus adding the piping...the needles kept breaking. Next time, I am just going to fold and staple and then do a nail head trim! Just saying....

 

 With that said, my mom still did a fabulous job! I love you mom...sorry I kept you up till 1:00 in the morning.

 

 

 Done...and less than $20.00

 

 

 

 

Every dog has his day!

Hey guys! I thought you might enjoy seeing my new edition. "Ah... it's so ugly... it's cute. This is Roscoe, he was only $5.99 at TJ Maxx. I just had to buy him.  Now the question is, where do I put this little guy? Wherever he ends up, I know Roscoe will make a good conversational piece! Well I hope you all had a great day...and if you didn't, I hope this made you smile! So, What have you bought lately?

I used these to make this....

Before

After

Well..."Hallelujah"!

I have always been a big fan of the song, "Hallelujah". However, I really felt the power of the song when it was done on The Voice. The song, Hallelujah was sung, in rememberance for the people who tragically lost there lives at Sandy Hook Elementary. Afterwards, I could not get that song out of my mind. I began searching for this song on the internet and stumbled upon this....

Here is  Christina Grimmie, singing "Hallelujah"

Well I heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do ya?
Well it goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Well Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
she tied you to her kitchen chair
And she broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Well baby I've been here before
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew ya
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Well there was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that to me do you?
And remember when I moved in you?
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Well maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who'd OUT DREW YA
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen in the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
