Look For Less: Clam Shell

Ever since I saw Sherry, at YHL use this clam shell as her fruit display in her kitchen I knew I needed one!
Here it is in their new kitchen!


Well I have seen quite a few of these guys popping up as the Nautical trend has seemed to really take flight!

Grandin Road $199 for the large

Ballard $129.00

Z Gallerie $59.95

I think I will stick with John and Sherry and go with Z Gallerie!

Everyone seems to be offering this item and the price range for virtually the exact same item is crazy!!

Hope to plant some orchids in here. We plan on picking on up on our trip to Atlanta in August!

Look For Less: Herringbone

As my baby boy will soon be transitioning into a toddler boy I have been rough draft planning what I would like for his big boy room.

One thing I have envisioned is this Serena and Lily Blanket.
Lawd have mercy on my sweet soul!! 
Thats alot of money for a little fella to make a mess on...

That is until.... Target once again brought their A game!
Fiddy Dolla?? Yes Please!!

Can you tell the difference in the pattern?

















I think this time I will take the Copy Cat Chic version!

Naptime Bookshelf

Any of you ever visit Ana-white.com??
.
One of you sweet readers Anonymously told me about her site.
{i would love to know who you are so I can personally come and hug your neck!!! seriously!!!}


Soon after finding out about the site
I spent way way too long scouring the site for things we could build.
.
About that time we were in the market for a bookshelf to go in lil bit's room.
Loved PBKids and $119 wasn't too bad in my book.
.
But hubby was determined to build something on his own.
{here is the link to the plans}
.
We printed off the extremely detailed plans, took our list to Home Depot and purchased everything on the shopping list. 
.
I went to work and hubby took baby to nap @ my parents. 
.
In a little over an hour and a half he had a complete copy cat of the PB Shelf. 

Their Shelf
$119.00

Our Shelf

$46.00
materials 39.00
paint 7.00
still torn on whether or not to paint the shelf white.
thoughts??
I am linking up with Primitive and Proper on painted furniture.
