My Little Project…

One Blonde~ — Wed, 03 Aug 2011 16:05:00 +0000

Don’t you hate it when you are in the middle of the demo process of something you are going to make look beautiful, when you realize “CRAP! Why did I not take a before shot?”
Well here is a what my new little roadside chest of drawers looked like at the moment I had that realization…

It was a very dark chocolate brown before I started sanding it, with old school tarnished brass pulls. One of the drawers aslo had the face piece broken off. A little wood glue, paint and new adorable little knobs I found at Home Depot for $2.97, and you have…

Once I finished it my daughter laid claim to it, however much to her disappointment it went in my closet which then forced an entire closet, bedroom and dresser spring cleaning. Another whole day project, but it turned out great, and I have a much neater bedroom now. Mission accomplished.

Now if only I could find a 3 drawer chest that I can use for a night stand.

Video Find…Flash Mobs ROCK!

After watching the new movie “Friends with Benefits” I have a whole new appreciation and awareness of what a flash mob is.
So naturally I googled “flash mob” to find more videos. There were quite alot. My favorites were the “Star Wars/Subway“, “Best Buy”, and this one, so naturally I am sharing, Enjoy…

I’m Still Here…

I know I have been M.I.A. for quite a bit now, I apologize. It has been craziness around here. We recently had family come to visit which was so great, we don’t get to see them very often. I decided to paint the outside of the house which is half done, since it won’t stop raining around here, I started a new job which I get to do from home ~ TOTALLY AWESOME, and Kayla is home for the summer (no summer program this year). I am still trying to organize everything so that I can get a nice rhythm going here but I blinked and June disappeared, and we are into July already. Who pressed the fast forward button?? Can somebody please press pause, I can’t keep up!
I will be trying to post a little more here and there, and I appreciate your patience and your loyalty. Hope you guys are having a great summer, (don’t blink, trust me!)

Walmart You Did it Again…

One Blonde~ — Tue, 03 May 2011 18:16:58 +0000

Normally I don’t rave about a store brand product, I’m usually rather choosey about what items I’ll consider the store brand option for. However now a days, I actually am looking at the price tags on the shelf A LOT, all thanks to my new attempts at being frugal.

I recently went to buy my usual Hoover Premium Pet carpet cleaner AGAIN, (hey I like my house clean, I’ve got four cats and a 5 y/o I’m washing the carpets almost weekly, don’t judge!). I was extremely shocked to see that Walmart’s Great Value Pet Stain Carpet Cleaner Solution was a little over $7 dollars cheaper. WOW that $7 bucks could pay for a case of my Starbucks Frappuccino’s, so I figured it was worth a shot.

I’m so glad I did, I LOVE IT! It smells so much nicer then the Hoover, and it actually gets the dirt/stains out better. It even removed an old stain complete with smell that I couldn’t completely get out with the Hoover.

Now I don’t ALWAYS bust out with my carpet machine, I actually bought a spray bottle which I keep with some of the solution in for small messes, and it just works fabulously! It also works great in both my Bissell Spot Bot, and my Hoover Steam Vac.

Walmart you did it again, you saved me money! So save yourself $7 bucks and buy yourself some Frappuccino’s!
