Since I've been gone....

....I haven't even really been on the blogs....which I have MISSED!! But, I am trying to focus on the tasks at hand....one of which includes purging all the stuff I don't need, can't use, haven't used or the kids have outgrown. I LOVE stuff, and even though I thought I might be sad about it, it's actually been very freeing! Y'all know I am famous for my before and afters...today is no exception! It's been so long and I think that's the best place to start! Plain aluminum pizza pans BEFORE: AFTER: **yes, I know they aren't evenly spaced, I am the worlds worst hanger! The good news IS they are hung by velcro command adhesives...one piece of velcro on the wall and one on the back of the pan, so I COULD fix them....) Fab silver tray from Goodwill...$2.99 BEFORE: Using a free monogram decal that came with my last order AFTER: Remember above I mentioned the cleaning and purging? Even Maya is in on it and has cleaned out the closet in her room and her bathroom! A biggie was all the belts she's outgrown...some of them are far too cute to get rid of, so I have saved them and will figure something out for them....in the mean time, one of them found their way here: The towel was already hanging over the bar and I knew I wanted to add ribbon or something to make it just a little fancier....I think she did the job! A pale buttery yellow fabric covered "belt" with a sweet rhinestone buckle....just the thing!
