New Couch!


YAY! The Ronnebecks finally broke down and bought a new couch!
After 6 furniture marts and an entire afternoon of shopping we found one that we could both agree on. We both had some prerequisites and we both sacrificed some. I don't know what to call this color, it's kind of greenish, brownish, steel grayish... Yeah, I just liked it, It's a microfiber material and we're hoping that our kitty doesn't find it scrachable, we also found out post buying it that it may or may not come with a hide-a-bed - we couldn't tell by sitting on it, so we figure it's bonus that there is one there. (maybe?) The throw pillows also come with the couch, I'm not sure that's a bonus.
There are a couple mixed emotions about getting rid of our early 90's Miami vice style couch that is currently in our living room but I'm sure in the long run we're going to be happy with our purchase. The day it gets hauled away I will make sure to blog a goodbye to the ole girl.
Merry Christmas to us!

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

Merry Craftmas!!

When I was little Mom had one of these to put out every Christmas. I remember her tossing it out having fixed its hot glue after every warm summer in the shed, she wasn't particularly attached to it but I was. Having collected enough baby food jars (finally) I put it together this weekend! Looks just like I remember it and now it is sitting in my closet awaiting its debut next weekend!
