First Winter

The past few weeks here in Indy have been pretty chilly and white. I enjoyed the amount of snow that we got, even if it made it a little tricky getting to work on a few mornings. It's worth it to get a view like this

July Updates on House

Every time I finish something in the house--cleaning, projects, laundry--- there is always something else that has to be done. I still don't feel like it's in a position for guests, but we have been here for a while now...it's probably time to have a dinner or something. 

I have had such a fun time going to Home Goods, TJ Maxx, Hobby Lobby, and the Dollar Tree to find less expensive items to decorate with. I have also been able to incorporate much of my grandmother's things into our place. My current favorite place to shop: Midland Market in Indianapolis. They also have a location in Carmel, but I haven't been--yet.

We're Getting a House!

I'm so excited!! Cole and I are purchasing a house!! I'm doing my best to not buy too much before we move our already existing furniture in there. But I stopped by a flea market and antique store on my way home this weekend. And a consignment shop...I'm really setting myself up for success with all those stops. But I've found some great deals on objects that I can fix up. Stay tuned for DIY projects!

43" round mirror: $35. I'll either leave this as-is, or paint it black and fleck the details with bronze.
