Gray and yellow

First official wedding decision: color scheme gray and yellow.

I'm so excited! I'm shooting for gray dresses and yellow shoes and gray tuxes and yellow ties. I've got my eye on some cute pics that kind of capture my vision.

Super excited!! I got my rings resized Monday and just picked them up. They fit perfectly and I found an amazing local jeweler...after I was treated horribly by another. Ugh I really don't appreciate snobs, but thanks to the ones I encountered I found a really great business. Who I will definitely be using in the future!

Much love,
Krackle

Friday - best day ever!

Mandy and I had a super crafty/inspirational/productive day Friday :-)! We spent the morning walking around a pretty chic cute part of Little Rock. Then we went to the sweatshop and made lots of frankensteins!

Mandy made this super cute hat complete with tiger ears!!

I successfully completed this necklace from an old tshirt and some beads. I want to do another with more strands and more beads.

I also attempted this with the other half of my old tshirt...but I don't have any pics of it. ...and it didn't turn out as well as I had hoped.

It was so much fun! I'm really glad we helped get each other back in the crafting groove.

Thanks Mandy! Love youuu :-)

Decoration Inspiration: kitchen

If you've read this blog ever before you probably know I am really excited about moving into my new house. :-D I'm also pretty excited about decorating it. One of the most important rooms to me (where I'll be spending LOTS of time :-)) is the kitchen. So here are some cute ideas for decorating your kitchen.

I found these first 2 items on Etsy in the OldNewAgain shop. They're a husband and wife team and their stuff is so stylish and functional. I love it. They also have a blog that you should check out. It's so cute :-).

I have a door that opens into the kitchen. One of these hangers would look amazing next to my kitchen door. I especially love the mason jar vase.

 

 

And also in their shop, I found this table organizer. How neat is that? I think it would look so cool in the middle of my refinished table :-).

These next few items I found here in GiftsAndTalents' shop. Her name is Laurie, and I promise if you visit her on Etsy, you will find the most beautiful recipe/keepsake boxes everrr! I seriously loved every one that I saw. They all have such an artistic look.

 

 

You can also find some stylish recipe card dividers in the shop too! I love one stop shopping :-)

I hope everyone goes to check out these blogs and etsy shops they're just a click away and everyone could use a little more kitchen decoration inspiration :-).

I also want to get some chalkboard paint and make a chalkboard space on one of my kitchen walls. I can always use a spot to write down my reminders! And it always feels good to write or color on walls. (You know you did that when you were a kid!) With chalkboard paint, I can color on the wall without ruining it. Can you say convenient?

I am seriously considering the chalkboard paint fridge now that I have seen this picture...HOW NEAT!!?!?

p.s. here's a pic of my only kitchen decoration as of right now. I lovelovelove tins...and these match so well. Thanks Mo!! :-)

Okay lovelies, that's all for today. Can't wait for next Thursday...I already have some ideas floating around!

be crafty!
