Things I'm Loving This Week..

Hi there! I hope you all had a fantastic week!
 
Please tell me that I am not the only one who is feeling a tad jealous over all of the gorgeous spring posts being done by some of my favorite bloggers.  I so want spring here, too.
 
I'm hopeful that one day, soon...maybe...if will start to feel like spring here in the northeast!

Things I'm Loving This Week...

TGIF!
 
I am so excited to finish up some projects this weekend! I have been on a major purging, organizing frenzy and I hope the motivation continues on.
 
Here are some things I especially love this week. The added bits of color are to make me feel like spring just might really happen at some point here. For reference it is 4 degrees outside right now. This needs to stop! Seriously.

Things I'm Loving This Week...

Happy Friday everyone! I have a feeling it will be a quiet, quiet one here as my oldest has a temp of 104 degrees. Let's all say a little prayer that the rest of us don't catch this nasty virus he has!
 
I really love all of the things I found this week while online browsing!  Two of them (the bins and lamp) are actually meant for children.  Something I frequently do when shopping is to look at the kid's line from stores that I love. Often times you can get a great deal and the majority of the pieces can be used universally throughout the home.

Things I'm Loving This Week...

Hey there friends! I hope you've all had a fantastic week! I am so super busy with projects and deadlines that's I am seriously looking forward to this weekend. Saturday nights my husband and I always put the boys to bed early and I make a special dinner, drink wine, chat and catch up on our favorite cheesy shows; think The Goldbergs, New Girl and Bob's Burgers. I love a good, ridiculously funny show.
 
Anyway, here are my favorite things from this week. I actually went to pick up that Threshold cookbook holder yesterday and there was only one, and it was broken. Boo.

Things I'm Loving This Week....

Hi friends! Super TGIF this week, for sure! My boys have had a tough week. I have had a tough week. I am so ready for the weekend! How about you?
 
Want to see all those fantastic things I've found online window shopping and just wish I could bring into my home?

Here they are!

Things I'm Loving this Week... With Primitive & Proper!

I don't want to come off all crazy and stalker-ish but, let me just say the following things...
 
1. I started reading Primitive & Proper way before I started my own blog and loved it (still do, obviously).
 
2.  I discovered about a year and half ago that Cassie and I actually grew up just two towns apart (we now live hours away).
 
3. Although I've never met her in real life I would love to! She is so genuine and always makes me burst out laughing.
 
5. Chances are, if Cassie has pinned something on Pinterest, I have repinned it. What can I say, we love a similar style.
 
5.  It was Cassie's idea to have my fave bloggers contribute to this weekly post. I thought it was a brilliant idea. However, I wanted to slap myself for not thinking of it first.
 
So, without further adieu, here are Cassie's Things I'm Loving This Week...

Hello Number Fifty-Three'ers!   I am Cassie from Primitive and Proper and I blog about my home, my shop, my projects and family.  I am so excited that Angela let me crash her "Thing's I'm Loving This Week" post!  I don't do a lot of shopping mainly because the budget doesn't allow it, but I do like to window shop online and locally in downtown Frederick, MD.

 Thank you, Angela, for turning the blog over to me for the day!  Now are you ready for some eye candy?

January is the month of organization!  I have a pile of mismatched plastic containers, and would love to use these glass storage containers for my leftovers!  Available at Relish in downtown Frederick and ALSO online here.

Things I'm Loving This Week...& Contributor Post

It feels so great to be back blogging and sharing some of my fave online finds!
 

Two of these (the Target bench and the Container Store basket) both really, really need to be in my home right now. I totally have the perfect place for both.

Things I'm Loving This Week...Gifts for a Cause

Isn't it awesome when you can buy a gift for a friend or loved one and help someone out all at the same time?  I've been searching around online for some of my favorite gifts that also contribute to those less fortunate.  It's a total win-win!

Things I'm Loving This Week...Gift Edition

Happy day after Turkey Day friends!
 
 
I hope you all had the best and most relaxing day yesterday! We completely did. And, truth, I never even got out of yoga pants the entire day. It was fab!
 
Do you head out shopping on Black Friday? I completely do not! I prefer shopping online from the comfort (and warmth...it is freezing here) of my own home.  Which, actually is how this little series I have on Fridays got started!
 
So, here are some of my fav gift ideas for Christmas 2013. What do you all think?

Things I'm Loving This Week... (Holiday Prep Edition)

Just so you all know, my house is still decorated for late autumn...and I plan on keeping it that way for just a bit longer.
 
Don't you find this to be such an awkward time of year? You don't want to snub Thanksgiving. I mean, it really does deserve its moment, but Christmas is so grand and requires so much planning. Planning that needs to be done before Turkey Day.  Especially this year, with Thanksgiving being so late.
 
Don't fear, I'm sharing this special edition of Things I'm Loving This Week completely devoted to those essentials that need to be done prior to the holiday rush.
 
1/ 2/ 3/ 4/ 5
 
Just a couple of notes before I head off to start my day.
 
First of all, why do I not own that CB2 wreath? I have been pining over it for two years now. I need to make that happen.
 
Secondly, check out treat. for cards. They are unique, personal and really, really affordable. Start planning for your Christmas cards now. Here's why...last year I ran out of time and motivation and never sent out cards. I. Am. Still. Hearing. About. It. From. My. Family. Seriously, they are threatening me this year. Also, get a special little card for your love. They are customizable and truly a keepsake. It will also help you to avoid awkward situations like I have had with my own husband...like, you know...giving each other the very same cheesy card from the drug store one Christmas. Awkward. Learn from me. 
 
 
 
Enjoy your weekend!

[Project Notebook] Cold Weather Staples

You all know we live in a smallish old home, so, as you can imagine, space is at a premium. I have to periodically go through my closet and store away out of season items and create a bag for donation for things that I'm not really into anymore.  By the way, there's a great article for closet cleaning tips here.
 
But, you know, out with the old and in with the new, right? I do like to add a couple of key pieces to my seasonal wardrobe just to keep things fresh and interesting. Here are some of my favorite possibilities for the chilly months. Which do you like best?

Things I'm Loving This Week... (Entertaining Edition)

Happy Friday friends!
 
I love a beautifully set table. You know, one that doesn't involve plastic IKEA cups and paper napkins left over from that morning's coffee run.
 
But, beautiful can still mean relaxed and attainable. I've found some great options for creating that perfect Thanksgiving table at some of my favorite stores. 
 
Check it out!

And, let me tell you. If I hadn't just spent an obscene amount of money getting new glasses for both my boys those silhouette wine glasses would so be mine!

Things I'm Loving This Week...

TGIF!
 
I went to bed with an awesome idea for switching around the rugs in our living room and office last night, so I'm going to be changing that up this morning. Isn't it totally funny how you change one little thing in a room and suddenly you've got a mini makeover happening?
 
Here are some of my fav things I've found online this week. Which do you like best?

Things I'm Loving This Week...

I hope everyone had an awesome Halloween! I know my boys did. Getting over pneumonia (oh yeah my youngest got it, too) and crummy weather did not slow them down too much. And they got a massive haul of candy and treats, too! Have you seen their costumes? I shared them over on my Facebook page, here.
 
Anyway, here are some of my favorite things I've found while checking out my go to online shops this week. Which is your fav?  (Mine is the chair, because it needs to be in my living room.)

Things I'm Loving This Week...

It is still raining here! This is unbelievable!
 
I'm off in a bit to bring my boys to their homeschool art class, then back home to clean and organize my house and work on some special projects.
 
In a couple of weeks I'll be having a sale at my house. Part yard sale of my cast off home décor items (because you know I have way too much and am always changing things up), part painted furniture/crafty item sale. I've been super busy going through all of my things this week seeing what will stay and what will go. It should make for a really fun afternoon on the day of the sale!
 
Here are my fave things I have found this week online. I really, really think I need to get that pillow for my living room. The colors are perfect for fall (and yes, I am thinking that far ahead!)

Things I'm Loving This Week...

Happy Memorial Day weekend!
 
In between the major bouts of rain we've been having I managed to hang up our flag bunting in front of our house.  There's still some planting to do (although it looks like everything we put in last year when we removed our old and overgrown landscaping is coming in beautifully)! I always try to get, at least the front yard, done by Memorial Day because the parade goes right down our street!
 
Other than that, I've been painting, painting, painting custom furniture orders and my house is beginning to look like a storage area!
 
Here are my favorite things I've found online this week. Which one do you like best?
