The habitat store.

Last Wednesday I stopped by our local Habitat for Humanity store.  At this store you can donate things, they also accept donations from businesses that are going under.  I found an old salvaged, three-pane window.  It is going to become a chalkboard/message board.  I also found some olive subway tile for the backsplash in our kitchen.  The deals were amazing and the people watching was even better.  I think I might have to make a monthly stop for some junking.  They also had beautiful solid wood doors, too bad I don't need one.  I will post some pics later of the before/after message board. 

In other news I am tossing around the idea of opening an etsy store.  It would be a lot of time and effort but I think I could really sell my products.  I also am worried that it might suck the fun out of my crafting. If you have any experience or stories please leave a comment. Thanks!

I am leaving on a jet plane!

Today there is a lot to do. Must clean, launder, pack, and get some shut eye.  I didn't realize when I booked our flight that it also happened to be daylight savings,  it will be an early one.  Bon voyage.

Viva Las Vegas.

Ry and I leave on Sunday-woohoo.  I can't wait to get out of town, shop, gamble, eat, drink, and relax.  I will post some pics when we get home. Wish us luck in the gambling department. Mama needs a new pair of shoes.
