more scrapbooking room

Thought I would show you one of my favorite things in my new room. I got this wire basket at an antique store last summer and knew exactly what I would use it for when I saw it.

How perfect is that for my rubber stamps?? :) LOVE IT!

I had big plans to get that metal cabinet spray painted this weekend, but this wind just wasn't cooperating with me.

Oh well I'm sure there will be plenty more warm days to come.

exciting things

My desk is coming along. The wood for the legs is very "green" still so we have been setting them outside everyday in hopes that they dry fast so they can be painted before we bring the desk in. Troy has the top completely finished and now just has to cut and assemble the legs.

I CANNOT WAIT!!!!

It is going to be great. I have some plans to put a shelf up above my desk just to house some odds and ends. Things that will be on this shelf include these cool Apothecary jars. I will wait for the big reveal to show you what I plan to put in them.

I'll give you some more sneak peeks into what is going on in my scrapbook room over the next week.

makes me happy

My challenge page is done for the week, but since it got dark out before I could snap a good picture of it, I'm going to wait till tomorrow for some good light. So I will post the challenge results and the new challenge tomorrow.

In the meantime at our house my new scrapbooking table is being started!

It has been awhile since my husband has had time to do anything handy. He still really doesn't, but he knows how much I need a bigger table and he really does not want to put one together from Ikea. He hates that place! ;)

I had forgotten just how handy he is. I got my new Pottery Barn magazine this week and started ripping pages out and showing things to him that I wanted him to make. I think he is starting to regret his decision to remind me that he knows how to use power tools.

Oh and be sure and check out my Our Life 365 Days blog. It is finally up to date!

just what I was looking for

It's been a long week...and it isn't over quite yet.

Thought I would get on Etsy and do a little looking around and came across a little letterpress number 3 I had been looking for at this cute little store. So decided to make a small purchase tonight.



I'm really eyeing the M too.....hmmm
