Tips and Tricks on Adding Birds or Birdhouses in Home Decor

October 9, 2014 By Meegan 1 Comment

Things are getting back to normal around our house.  I am doing laundry, sewing, and cooking for Hubby since I was gone for so long. Now I am back and ready to show you Birds and Birdhouses, My Collection (Maybe an Obsession)

I have always liked birds. Birds and Birdhouses in Home Decor. Wow.  While I was thinking about writing this post, I realized just how many birds and birdhouses I have.

2nd Annual Thrift Benefit for Sheltered Animals

October 6, 2014 By Meegan Leave a Comment

I am cozy back in my home.  After a 2 week trip back east and to Washington D.C., it’s nice to be home.  It was an informative, fun, grandbaby kissing, touristing, kind of trip and it was a blast!  I have never been that far east, so I was soaking in everything I possibly could.  Pictures to come soon.  I am enjoying the warm weather as long as I can, her in the desert.  Because all too soon, I won’t be able to enjoy the pool and wearing flip flops for too much longer.

The REAL reason I am writing this post is all about helping animal shelters.  Did you know that some thrift stores in your town help fund sheltered animals?  I didn’t either. I found out last year when I participated in the very first Thrift Benefit for Sheltered Animals.  What a great cause, right?

This past weekend over 10+ bloggers shopped at their local thrift stores to help with the Thrift Benefit for Sheltered animals.  We shopped for anything creative we could find, with a DIY project in mind.  I have my loot and I am excited to show you what I found. (I did share 3 tiny items I found on Instagram) BUT, the rest will have to wait until the link party.

On October 14th each of us will share what we found and our DIY projects made from thrift finds for the 2nd Annual Thrift Benefit for Sheltered Animals.  How exciting is that???

I will have more details soon, but until then, take a minute and Google Animal Shelter Thrift Shops in your town, county or city.  Head on over there and help support YOUR local animal shelters by purchasing thrifted goods.

All this week I will be getting ready for the 2nd Annual Thrift Benefit for Sheltered Animals and choosing pictures from my trip to share with YOU.

Before you leave my blog today, don’t forget to check out the Inspiration Monday Party and ALL the eye candy...

Make it a wonderful Monday filled with those you love.

Use an Olive Oil Bottle as a Dish Soap Dispenser

September 2, 2014 By Meegan 1 Comment

Happy Tuesday everyone!  How was your Labor Day?  Mine was spent with about half of our kids so it was REALLY fun.  And, the grandbabies are growing up SO fast.

I have a simple, but easy way to make your kitchen sink area look SO MUCH BETTER.

Use an Olive Oil Bottle as a Dish Soap Dispenser

Does your kitchen sink look like this?  With hand soap, dish bottle and sponge on the counter? It looks cluttered and messy, right?

 I know MANY of you are using a mason jar or some other type of jar for your dish soap.  And that looks super cute.
