New Fave Blog: This Young House

I have no idea how I came across this blog, guess I got on the blog highway of clicks and kept clicking until I landed here. Meet the Youngs, a fabulous couple with design know-how and skills out the wazooo - and all done on the cheap.
They have renovated their adorable ranch house and documented it online. They were just recognized by CNN last week for one of their renovation projects (taking an old piano stool from a thrift store and turning it into a lovely bench) and they've even been on HGTV's Rate My Space.

Here are just a couple of my favorite things on their blog:
Sherry actually even visited my site and commented on which pink I should choose for my office closet! How cool is that???? They also offer design consultations and advice and have great giveaways! Check them out at http://www.thisyounghouse.com/

Star Wars Gift Bag Tags

Two years ago, for Walker's Star Wars birthday, I created Yoda tags to attach to the gift bags for the party. Little did I know these bag tags would become so popular on Pinterest! To date, these tags have been repinned almost 500 times!!! So I thought since there's so much interest, I'd add them to my Etsy shop . So now, for just $8.00 - you can receive the file electronically and print them for yourself! I jazzed them up a bit with some sliver glitter puff paint on the light saber and some silver ribbon to attach to the dollar store bags. Print as many or as few as you want! So, if you are planning a Star Wars party, check them out ! And may the force be with you!

Baby Shower Inspiration Boards

I got all excited about the baby shower inspiration board contest over at Sippycups Are for Chardonnay , but only ended up submitting this first one on time. I managed to pull the second together this weekend just for kicks and loved the colors, so thought I'd share here. The first board is call "Nesting Instincts" and the second is "Over the Rainbow". I think I could get addicted to creating these things.
