Locks of Love
I finally did it! A little more than 2 1/2 years ago a very dear friend of mine found out that her 3 year old son had cancer. He is doing great now and has been cancer free for almost 2 years! But it was not an easy battle, surgery, radiation and chimo. It broke my heart to watch them have to go through this, but they all stayed positive and had a great out come. You feel so helpless on the other side wanting to do something, anything to make it better, when really all you can do is be there, so that is what I did! I also decided that I would grow my hair out for locks of love. It was so sad to see that little guy with no hair, but you know, it didn't keep him down a bit, he was such a trooper through it all, and today he looks wonderful, with a head full of beautiful hair!
I just hope that some child will be able to benefit from my donation and maybe it will make her battle a little easier knowing that people do care and want to do anything they can to help! So if you can, grow out your hair and donate! It is for such a good cause!!

Thrifty Thursday!
So today I took a gander inside a local thrift store too look for some wool sweaters for my SIL and although I did not find any cute wool sweaters, I did find this fabulous light fixture! $4, and it works!!! I have the perfect spot for it in the new part of our house, my husband thought we would be putting a pool table in and decided to wire an outlet right into the ceiling, well our furniture is quite over sized and there is no room for a pool table! So for 2 years we have just had this outlet sitting empty in the middle of our ceiling, until today!

Need a new vanity?
I really had no idea what this table was going to be when I picked it up, but after some thinking and creativity, it looked like the perfect vanity for my room! I had some old windows in the garage, and decided to glue some mirror tiles to it to turn the window into a mirror! I re painted the table, attached the mirror and moved it into my room!
Now i have my own little space to sit at and get ready in the morning! Maybe this will make my morning routine a little more enjoyable? Doubt it, maybe just on Saturday and Sundays!
