My Affair

I am having an affair. Don't worry, the Hubs knows ALL about it. He sees evidence of it everywhere in our home. My love is always there for me (except Sundays), and has everything a girl could want.

Yes, my love affair is with HOBBY LOBBY. Sigh....my heart melts at those words...

Most girls would love a gift card to a great clothing store or a favorite restaurant. But not me. NOPE. I am the type that loves the crafts store. Micheals, he is okay. But HOBLOB is like craft Heaven. REALLY. And it is just so fun! Aisle upon aisle of endless projects and home decor. UGH! I could just die....

I visited my love today. I was on my way to Target to pick up a large basket that I have had my eye on for a while. This basket...

Now I like this basket. Not LOVE. And I already have this guy in my living room holding some small toys, but recently it has become obvious that he needs a big brother because A's toys are just overtaking everything....



I adore the idea of the chalkboard on baskets. In fact, I am already planning an entire post dedicated to the idea. More on that next time... But I really wanted something in RED. And I really don't like the idea of spending $40.

So I went to HOBLOB. AHHHH..... %50 off baskets. YEAH!!! BooYah! THAT is what I am talkin' 'bout! WHOOHOOO!!!! Can I get an AMEN?!?! So I picked up a few things...then a few more things....



then a few more things....


So now I have a new basket project (stay tuned), a new art project (stay tuned), several canvases that were on a good deal and I don't exactly know what they are going to be but I am sure they will be something great, a new rug for my master bath that is getting a makeover literally as I type this, some stocking stuffers for the Hubs, some magnetic paint (no clue what I am going to do, but I will think of something!), and some chalkboard markers! All for only $160.00!!!!! That is a great deal. Now I have plenty to occupy my time. That should hold me. Until November. He he!


And on a totally random note, I was at Target this past week, and I found this guy...


ONLY $3.somethin'!!!!!! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!!!! (And isn't that picture of A the most adorable and yummy thing you have ever seen?!?! I just LOVE that little sad/mad face! Oh who am I kidding? I love ALL of her faces!)
