New Year's Nails

I know it's early... but I had my nails done for the new year's celebration. They are shellac so hopefully they will hold through January 1st. If not I'll go get them redone.. because they turned out very festive!!
















I found the confetti idea on www.pinterest.com where I spend a lot of my time these days! ;)

Repurposed Furntiture, Antiques and more!

I went to a sale at Good Ju Ju in Kansas City today and was truly inspired! They had tons of amazing re-purposed furniture, antiques and so much more!













I like the bright fun colors of some of the furniture pieces. Some people are much braver than I!




I also like the decoupage done on some of the furniture. Wallpaper, musical notes...






























Some of the items put me in the Christmas spirit!



I like some their display ideas too... Check out this ladder hanging with things hanging off of it.
 












Or this twig tree with coffee/tea cups for sale..

It was fun to not only shop but be inspired by all of the creativity around!
There was a vender there that makes art from old auto tags.
This idea I love... Chalkboard platter!

There was a lot of old vintage stuff to purchase too.


Here are a few things that caught my eye.
I almost bought this table.. even called my hubbie about it. I decided however that chairs wouldn't be able to be pushed in so I passed. It was beautiful though!














Needless to say, I was in heaven at this sale. However, believe it or not I spent so much of my time looking at everything I hardly purchased anything! I ended up with a jar of buttons, some gift tags for inspiration and a Christmas tree ornament made out of an old water facet handle and buttons.
