My Guest Bedroom

Now that my office is almost done I am ready to move on to my next project. The Guest Bedroom will home a nursery someday, but for now it will decorated it like this....

Design Board ~ Marilyn Monroe, Vintage and Modern



The main inspiration piece for this room is the vintage 1970's poster, " The love in you heart wasn't put there to stay, love isn't love till you give it away ". The room is just a collection of items I already have that are just being stored in closets and in my basement. I just have to purchase a few accessories and paint basically. Decorating on a budget can be challenging, but if you are like me you got a bunch of STUFF that you probably can use to do a whole room over!!! I really wanted to paint the room a shade of yellow or purple, but I decided on dark gray. I decided that the accessories would be enough color for this room.

Stay tuned for the end result.... :)

Hello Kitty Flash Drive

It just goes to show that you can get just about anything "Hello Kitty" ;) lol This cutie is from Urban Outfitters.

This made me smile....

This little doggie looks like mine. :) Cute.

Keep Calm & Carry On

I love the Keep Calm & Carry On Poster/Print! I love seeing it in different colors and different rooms in peoples homes.

RECIPE

With the holidays approaching I will be baking cookies more often! I thought it would be fun to share some of my favorite recipes. I am new to the whole "baking" thing. I really enjoy it! The first recipe I am sharing is for:

Ande's Mint and Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies



I used a different recipe to form my own shown above. You have to like MINT to like these cookies. Please feel free to steal the recipe card above I made! ; )

p.s.
I would of posted a picture along with this card, but my husband ate them all before I got a chance to. lol
