Monday Blues-Lighting the Way

February 10, 2014 By Meegan 4 Comments

Happy Monday!! I am finally out of bed and rid of the yucky flu that’s hitting everyone!! Yay!! Now I have the Monday Blues-Lighting The Way. Well, not exactly. But you will see what I mean. This ending up being a really fun post for me to photograph and share with you.

I have been looking for months for some lights to drape over my mirror. I found some at Big Lots. They are patio lights. I was so excited to get them home and light the way, per say.

But, to my surprise, they were not white bulbs at all, but colored. Hmmm…I was disappointed. I REALLY wanted white. Well, the blue fit my color scheme, so that’s okay, I guess.

Whoa! They were ever so slowly changing colors. Hmmm…I might like these, but I still wasn’t sure.

But watching them change colors was kinda cool. They were surprising me every few seconds.

From whites, to bues, to pinks, lavender, green and varied colors all at once. I was falling in love with my new lights.

They are now one of the favorite spots in my home! Who would have thought, right? I went in the store looking for white lights and came home with something I like even more.

My Monday Blues-Lighting the Way. Aren’t they fun, and inviting? I light them up everytime I know visitors are coming. It’s a nice ambiance for the whole room. Sometimes it’s the little things that make the biggest impact, don’t you think?

Are YOU going to look for some lights to light the way in your home? I would LOVE to see them!

I’ve Got The Monday Blues For A Little Christmas Shelf

December 2, 2013 By Meegan 2 Comments

I’ve Got The Monday Blues For A Little Christmas Shelf and I am excited to share it with you today! You KNOW that I LOVE blue, right? I have a shelf that I thrifted, refreshed and now it hangs in our “office”. I decided to add a little Christmas cheer by adding a few things I already own.

You may also know how much I like to use empty frames to decorate our home. This shelf is no exception. Staggering 4 of my favorite frames I began to set up my shelf.

I bought tiny birdhouses at Jo-Ann and painted them with some of my favorite blues and whites last year. While the paint was still wet, I sprinkled iridescent glitter on each one. SO EASY!

I made the light blue tulle wreath for our son’s wedding from an embroidery hoop. EASY!! I found the “let it snow” sign in the dollar section at Target. (Gotta love the dollar section, right?)

I also made the small blue/green frame with the flower. I found the brooch at Hobby Lobby. I enjoy using this frame all year long. I really like the addition of the glitter and how each birdhouse shimmers in the light.

And one last look at my Little Christmas Shelf. While I am working on blog posts, I can look up and it makes me smile to see a little Christmas Cheer.

What do you have in your office for some Christmas Cheer?

I’ve Got The Monday Blues For A Little Christmas Shelf, do you, too???

Do you ever have one of those days, weeks, or months that everything goes a little haywire? Life is going along just fine, and BAM! Things change in a phone call or a Dr visit? Yep, that is how this week was for me. Our world got shaken up a little bit, but we are not knocked down. It’s all good, and everything is going to be okay! REALLY, it will.

With saying all of that-I’ve got the Monday Blues for some comfort food! And I am thrilled to be sharing theses amazingly delish and comforting recipes with you. They all look SO good to me, I could reach right through my computer screen and eat EVERY SINGLE ONE!!
