Getting My Nesting On

Spring is in the air

and everyone knows what that means.

It's time for me to get to work.

I get spring fever really bad.

I thoroughly enjoy the rituals

of spring cleaning

and making the house come to life.

This year is a little different for me

because Mr. M and I purchased

a 1951 farmhouse and we

are in the process of renovating.

I've waited all winter to paint

and peel ugly wallpaper

and paint

and sew pillows

and paint

and hang new curtains...

did I mention paint?

(Let's just say there's a certain red in my bedroom that is giving me angst.)

I also have the need to purchase

some new furniture.

As newlyweds, Mr. M and I have

tried to meld our furniture together.

Some of it has worked and some of it...

well, let's just say....not so much.

(I'm not trying to say names but Mr. Couch and Mr. Loveseat....you know...)

I've been looking at some barstools

and a small table to make a sitting area

and I stumbled upon this store.

All I can say is WOW!!!!!

This place has EVERYTHING you could ever imagine.

I'm not kidding.

I got so sidetracked by looking at everything else they had

that I still haven't decided on which barstools I want.

(I have a few dozen in mind...A girl has the right to change her mind.)

C'est la vie!!!!

I'm also hosting a few giveaways over the next two weeks.

There is just something about spring that I love

and want to share with everybody.

If anyone else is suffering from

nesting syndrome and spring fever like me,

then I hope you find a cure

or at least the right shade of paint.
