Weekend Update: Just Chillin

So this weekend we really didn't have that much planned do to the rain and we just wanted to kinda chill at home.  We played video games got caught up on some our favorite recorded shows, made lunch, did some house chores... cleaning etc... Then Sat night we decided to go to the movies. We saw 'Ghost Rider' NOT worth the $.. So on Sunday the rain kinda died down and we decided to start looking at this home we are so interested in getting.. I really want to move..

It's beautiful in every way, brand new and just ready for us to entertain in it.. lol.. So we have been really thinking about it. But that was our weekend... and I hope you had a great one. Happy Presidents day :)

DIY Friday's ' Lace Votives'

Create sturdy candleholders from lace saturated with fabric stiffener. Fitted with tea lights in glass containers, these luminarias can be positioned alone or in groups around a room or along a mantel for instant ambience.
I can't wait to sow my friends how this will look.. Super easy to do. Just find a favorite piece of lace and use hot glue to secure to each ends.
Hope you have fun with this.. I know I did.
Have a great weekend. :)
