i have been searching for these boxes for months.
i am so excited to have found two of them for a steal..
$5 each! i am making the coolest shelving unit and these babies complete it!

a garden i desire..

Here is the thing our back yard is concrete & i am counting down until spring when i can fight w/it. However i want a garden just like the one to the left there. i love it. if you notice there isn't any flowers in it. maybe bc it's winter or maybe bc it's bc it doesn't need it. all it needs are beautiful succulents and greenery. this is the garden i desire. i love that it is rustic and filled with things other than flowers. i am sure that most people wouldn't love this in their yard or flower bed. but me so there ya go, i am the kinda gal that loves rustic and green. so concrete enjoy your winter I'm coming for ya in the spring!:)

a christmas find..

this week i had a half day of work.
so i went out antiquing w/shea which was such a fun adventure.
this is my best find.
this baby was a little more expensive than my normal finds, i felt it was worth it.
it can hold lots of ornaments.
i already owned these small ornaments and i love the way
they look on this cute tree.
i am such a sucker for christmas decor.
