Side Table Dilemma...

Hello, Dollfaces :) :)  I've been busy redecorating many rooms in my home & I think I'm making myself go crazy with everything going on & I seem to be going in circles & can't stay focused on one room long enough to get it done... This is what happens when you have compulsive decorators disorder (lol).  No, but seriously I do have many projects going on at once right now & just not enough time in my days to get as much done as I would like too.  Slowly but surely I'm getting there :):):)  Today I want to show you guys my side table dilemma... I recently changed furniture in our TV room/den to make it a lil more comfy wise for the man of the house & to open the room up a lil bit more... I went from a sofa, love seat, & club chair to a sofa & his/hers recliners.  I'm still trying to get use to the new stuff & placement but the recliners are SO cozy:):):)  The sofa is on one wall & the recliners are directly across but angled in towards each other a lil bit.  After I figured out furniture placement I decided I needed a table of some sort or something between the recliners so I went out shopping & ended up trying out 4 different pieces before finally settling for one of them.  So, here they are...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The first 3 tables all came from Hobby Lobby, the last table I ordered online from Home Depot.  I decided on the leopard table which is the last one... What do you think???  Honestly, I thought it was going to be a lil bigger than it was but I liked it the most out of these.  I'm still working on dressing it up & haven't got it just right yet but this table will have to work for now... Although, I have already found something else I like better but of course it costs alot more (lol) I will have to wait patiently until it goes on sale & TRUST me I've been checking almost daily ;)  Well, that's all for now thanks for stopping by, please return & follow me if you haven't already:):):) Until next time.......xoxo Stacey

 

 

It smells A-M-A-Z-I-N-G in here...:):):)

Hey Dolls!!!  I hope you all are doing fabulous :):):) Just thought I'd do a quick post today to let you in on what I came across while at Wally world... I know everyone already knows about the better homes & gardens electric warmers & scented wax cubes but I just thought I'd share that they have released some new fall scents so that you can look out for them in your local stores.  I buy this brand ALOT & these new scents are simply AMAZING!!! But, when it comes to scented wax I do NOT discriminate any brand I also LOVE scentsy, yankee candle, colonial candle, & I have a local vendor that I buy from :) I LOVE them all & am truly addicted to scented wax... But, who doesn't love for their home to smell fabulous???...........



As you can see I bought the warm rustic woods, calming lavender sunshine, pure white woods, warm comforting kitchen, iced carrot cake, & exotic sandalwood musk :) I took the pics using 2 of my warmers that I have... I do use all types of waxes in all my electric warmers & have had no issues although, I have heard that you aren't suppose to burn anything other than scentsy wax in the scentsy warmers because it can void the warranty, just wanted to put that disclaimer out there :) Thanks for stopping by & I hope you return (at least so I don't feel like I am talking to myself) lol... Until next time xoxo Stacey

Easy Fleur De Lis Candle Embellishment

Hello Dolls:):):)

I'm back today with one of my favorite "drab to fab" decor ideas.  I know that candle embellishments are really in right now & while surfing the web I have come across some real beauties that have ribbon & actual embellishments hot glued on to them...mainly fleur de lis & cross symbols they are truly fabulous & are what inspired my cheap, easy version of candle embellishment :) I went to Hobby Lobby & found the fleur de lis stencils (they came in a pack that had different sizes) & craft paint (i got dazzling metallics in venetian gold).  I already had the paint brushes, scissors, candles & scotch tape that I used.  All I did was cut the stencils down to squares (i actually only used one of the stencils- more for later), scotch taped it into place, & painted carefully INSIDE the stencil... the first time I just slopped over it with my paint brush & when I went to remove the actual stencil what I painted came off too. So, I had to re-think & re-paint... I also figured out it was better to remove the actual stencil while the paint was still wet which worked out pretty good:) I did have to touch up the paint some to make the gold stand out more, but aside from this it dried pretty quick :)...

I think they turned out pretty good for a nice, cheap idea esp. considering I still have paint & stencils left to do more stuff :):):) Also, another good thing is if you do mess up or decide you want to do a different stencil it wipes off pretty easy dry or wet with a damp cloth & just a light scrubbing.  Well, that's all for today thanks for stopping by & I hope you follow me if you haven't already... Until next time xoxo
