I recently painted my dining room chairs in all happy colors. I had been wanting to do this for a while but was a little hesitatant because I was afraid it would look a little crazy and discombobulated. But I have to say I am so glad I did it! It adds the perfect pop of color to my all white dining room. I guess there really is no such thing as too much color. </div>

The 2nd are these "sassy hoops". Each one has a different saying on it with a cute crochet embellishment. Once these are sold out some sayings might not be back for a while, so get them while they are available :)</div>

After having a terrible weekend I am so grateful that Mother Nature gave me a little glimpse of Spring yesterday. I got to wear flip flops, walk up to the craft store, spotted some spring flowers at Home Depot, and even Sophie loved not having to trudge through snow.</div>

It's a big blanket, it fits nicely on my full size bed. The pattern is from the wonderful <a href="http://dottieangel.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Dottie Angel</a>, t is called the Ordinarily Extraordinary Blanket. You can find the<a href="http://dottieangel.blogspot.com/2010/06/ordinarily-extraordinary-blanket-how-to.html" target="_blank"> awesome tutorial here</a>.</div>

I used mainly Red Heart acrylic yarn for this project. I have to admit something, when I first finished the blanket I really did not like the combination of colors. It was even too bright and colorful for me, but then I put in on my bed and the colors softened and now I am completely smitten with it! One of my favorite finished blankets to date!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hi everyone!<br /><br />I am so excited to introduce you to my newest pattern... The Vintage Inspired Crochet Flower Potholder. I created it after being inspired by a gorgeous vintage red rose potholder that I own. It is so intricate and delicate made out of cotton crochet thread and a teeny tiny hook. I wanted to make something similar in style, but more modern by using worsted weight cotton. Here is what I came up with and I have to say I'm in love! They look perfect in my vintage inspired kitchen and are adorable grouped together on the wall as art. I hope you will love the pattern as much as I do! It is now available<a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/182051177/crochet-flower-potholder-pdf-pattern?ref=listing-shop-header-0" target="_blank"> in my shop</a> as an instant download. It's the perfect lazy Sunday project!</div>

This week I decided to try my hand and hama beads (or perler beads).</div>

My mom wanted to join along so we made a little party out of it. We made taco dip and had some Smirnoff ice and crafted for hours. I set out a few bowls of perler beads as well as some cross stitch books.</div>

This little flower along with Stanley is from the Cath Kidston needlepoint book. You can find most of these patterns on my <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/hopscotchlane/hama-beads/" target="_blank">Hama Bead board</a> on Pinterest. Love the way they turned out, so bright and cheery!</div>

Hi everyone! Once again I let my blog go for far too long. Everything is great here, but as everyone knows life seems to get in the way of blogging sometimes. One of my New Year's resolutions is to post regularly again, but for now here is a little tour of my home all decked out for Christmas!</div>

This is our living room area in the great room. We got a HUGE real tree this year and plopped right in the middle of the room between the dining area and living room. I LOVE it! Of course we filled it with all handmade and vintage ornaments. Such a happy colorful tree! </div>

Last week I showed you my dining room before and after so today I thought I would share the living room. The dining room and living room are one big room so technically this is just the other half of the room :)</div>

I took this picture the day that we looked at the unit a few days after Christmas. Kind of strange that the only thing in the room was a treadmill.</div>

Had to share this picture of my favorite TJ Maxx find, and little Sophie sneaked into the the picture too.<br />
I'm super thrilled with how this room turned out. I didn't think we would get this much done on our teeny budget. Can't wait to switch it out for all the seasons and holidays! Next up in decorating is the tv room!</div>

We have been slowly but surely getting our new home painted and decorated. I thought it would be fun to share some before and after pictures.<br />
<br />
I'll start with the dining room. It's a little embarrassing, but here is the before picture.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
We tried to make it look it as nice as possible by adding some plate racks, our freshly painted white dining table, flowers, and such. It just wasn't happening with the awful shade of brown/pink/tan paint on the walls. It was such a cave in there I couldn't even get a clear photo.<br />
<br />
So over the last couple months we accumulated a few more pieces of furniture and accessories, but it just wasn't looking nice with that paint. We spent weeks mulling over every shade of cream and white paint swatches to find the perfect color. I knew I wanted something neutral because the room has 13 foot tall ceilings so painting the room was a one shot deal. Finally we decided on "Camembert" by Behr.<br />
<br />
After painting everything started came together. Are you ready to see the after? Are you sure?<br />

Tah dah! Here is the newly painted dining room all decked out for Fall!<br />

The buffet in the back is probably my favorite piece ever. We found it at the corner of the street on the tree lawn waiting to be brought to the dumpster.I couldn't believe it, I ran up the street inspected it and fell in love. Other than a few glow in the dark star stickers and scratches it was perfect. Luckily it had wheels on it so we just wheeled it home. What luck! A beautiful wood buffet for free!<br />

I am absolutely loving this room. It is so cozy and welcoming. It was totally worth all those sleepless nights trying to decide on paint colors and furniture placement.<br />
<br />
I'm a sucker for side by side before and after pictures, so here's a quick one.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Next I'll be sharing the living room which is technically in the same room as the dining room. Talk to you soon!</div>

It looked so cute and I was craving something simple, fast, and all for me. Originally I was going to be daring and make the petals in bright yellow, but I chickened out and used my favorite light blue. For those who are wondering the yarn is just leftover worsted weight acrylic.</div>
