Chantilly Lace

First the kitchen was my favorite part of my apartment (CHEESE, MUFFINS, AND BAKING GALORE Y'ALLS!) And then my bedroom was my favorite place ever and Robert Redford wasn't even there so you know.. BUT NOW the living room has stolen my heart. Movie marathons on my couch with every single candle lit (I'm currently watching 'Meet Me in St. Louis' and its like OMG JUDY I LUV U!) Here's some snapshots of my living room. I don't know how Wensley St. Clair managed to sneak to almost every shot. What a fame whore. He really needs to control his partying ways. He won't be cute forever.. (oh wait, yes he will!)

Lots of blankets, a door turned coffee table, candles, and Ikea things. What can I say blankets are the best! (tied with plaid wearing, bearded men buying you a cup of coffee&a scone)

After I had burned through that candle, I cleaned it out and turned it to a mini vase! (Even though every time I completely burn through a candle a little part of me dies with it.) And I used twine and butterfly paper to spruce up a wine bottle.

My most favorite side of the couch. Chest from Nashville flea market for $30 and lamp is from Ikea. Both posters are from amazon for dollars and cents and frames are from Walmart. You don't have to spend buckets of hundys to have a nice home!

Wensley, bro-dude, people are really getting tired of your antics. (BAHA JK LUV U!) Vase is from Ikea and flowers from Trader Joe's. It was so sweet, I showed up to my doorstep with these flowers and asked myself on a date. So if anyone's worried about me being a crazy single white lady, don't worry... I'm doing just fine!

'Gone with the Wind' poster so at any moment during the day I can be reminded of: "You should be kissed and often, and by someone who knows how." OH CLARK GABLE! How you have my heart. And basically anything else you want of mine. You want this $1 flea market cactus.. ITS YOURS!

Bagel sandwiches are my new jam. And by jam I mean nutella. Because who puts jam on toast anymore ever since nutella has been available in U.S. grocery stores!? Cheese, egg whites, onion, garlic, &spinach. Mmmhmm. Thats how I like to start my mornings (&my afternoon snacks).


Hope your day is simple splendid and filled with your favorite things!


Chantilly Lace- Big Bopper (Went to dinner at an Irish pub last week and there was a Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin cover duo there and it was wonderful. But I oh so wanted to special request this song. "BUT BABY I AIN'T GOT NO MONEY HONEY!)
