A person after my own heart...

I have TONS of empty spray paint cans and I was just googling some creative uses for them and found this. 

It's a lamp.  I think this would actually be really cute in a garage/craft/work room. 

Do you have any ideas for empty spray paint cans?

...crappy iPhone pictures!

Okay, I promise I will get batteries for my camera today.  I just couldn't resist posting my first piece of Easter decor.

I used an 16x20 canvas, painted a rectangle on it, and then framed this [free] subway art from Landee See Landee Do.  I attached the frame (which is a very lightweight Dollar Tree frame) with industrial strength velcro.  That way, I can change out the subway art as often as I like!

Now if it just wasn't 42 degrees...

Saturday Snapshot

You should link up too!

This is one of my favorite wedding pictures.  I just love re-living this moment!

The to-do list...

Sorry y'all,
   I promise I haven't fallen off the face of the earth.  My camera died and I've yet to go get batteries because I've been so TIRED lately. I don't know why? I literally come home from work, eat dinner, and I'm falling asleep on the couch by 7pm. Anyways...I have been saving some project I'm wanting to do so I thought I'd share.

But most of all...I wish I was here

Only 11 more weeks until I am!

Happy Saturday everyone! I hope to go get batteries so I can show you my new dining room!

Whooo Are You?

1. Have you ever had a professional massage before?

This has been the topic of a lot of conversations in my life recently. No. Never have, but I have decided that I will go get my first professional massage on my graduation day because I'm not walking. Now I just have to wait for Groupon or LivingSocial to have a coupon :) 

2. When drinking bottled water do you have a preference on which brand you drink?

SmartWater. It's all about the spout on the bottle, that's all I like about it.

3. What is your favorite kind of soup?

Chicken and Rice Soup from Demo's (which I think is only in TN)...but darn vegetarianism took it away from me :( You better appreciate me chickens!

4. Do you have a preference on which Kleenex brand you use?

Our Kleenex is toilet paper :)

5. What is your favorite breakfast food?

Bacon. Yep. Darn Vegetarianism...again. 

Gotta love spring weather...

So no crafting yesterday, but I did hang lights on the deck, built a projector screen, and rake the flower beds!

Okay the "projector screen" was me hanging a shower curtain on the side of our house. 

For this...

It's an "Eyeclops mini projector" I got off Woot for $30 with shipping.  My husband is awful to buy for so I got this for him for Christmas.  

Sadly (for him), I've been the only one to use it.  I love it though, TV is so much easier to watch when you can just look straight up on the ceiling.

But 2 nights ago we did this (except on the side of our house).  It was so much fun! My mom came over and watched a movie last night!

pictures from Amazon

It's so easy to set up and if you have something that an RCA cable can plug into, it will project the picture.

Now, let's get real, the picture quality is NOT amazing by ANY means.  Think, drive-in move theater 15 years ago.  Also this is a $35 "toy" not a $600 HD projector.  That's why it has mixed reviews on Amazon. 

I love it and hanging outside on our deck watching a movie was so fun and I can't wait to do it all Spring, Summer, and Fall. 

*Disclaimer thing: I've never had to write a disclaimer, but just to make it clear no one paid me to say any of this and this is all my own opinion and...that it's. 

Hmm...what should I make today?

Hug your daddy a little harder today...

Since I am participating in the Blogger's Day of Silence for Japan tomorrow I am going to go ahead and post this today.

Tomorrow, March 18th, is the 7 year anniversary of my dad's death (I was 16).  He fought lung then bone then brain cancer for 2 years before passing away.  Please hug your dad a little harder today if you can.  I'd do anything to have my dad here now.

Take pictures! We never took a lot of pictures in my family.  I don't even have any pictures of my dad since I was a baby. 

Take lots of pictures of everyone you love.
