Work In Progress...Bar Styling

Happy Snowy Tuesday !

We are recovering from snow again today in CT, and preparing for another storm tonight AND one this weekend! Can't say it isn't pretty but I am ready for some sun and warm weather for sure!



Both boys are still sick so a lot of today will be spent napping and resting....ear infections all around.

So it has given me some time to work on some inspiration for my next project, styling our sidebar!
I have searched some of my favorite blogs and of course pinterest and here's some fun inspiration I have found. Hopefully I will have a completed project picture to show you by the end of the week!



So here are a few things I am looking to grab for our buffet/bar!

Paper Straws For Every Season!








Crystal Whiskey Set

This is one thing I wish we had gotten for our wedding but over looked. I am searching for one I like ! My husband thinks his mom might have had one in storage somewhere, hoping thats the case, I would love to be able to display some more heirloms!

Some Fun Liquor Bottles
how fun is this Russian doll vodka?

a classic and a favorite!

Festive Coffee Table Books

To add some layer and height with vases and flowers!





The Perfect Lamp

I love this find at Target! might be a bit much for the husband!

Another Target find, mercury glass with a gray drum shade...


decisions, decisions...

So thats what I have so far, hopefully it all starts coming together soon!

Something not to be missed!

Happy Super Bowl Sunday Everyone!

Before I get to my favorite recipes for today and a few festive touches for a fabulous Super Bowl. I had to share an amazing blog. I have been blessed to be a part of a group Lil Mamas for over a year now, it started as a private Facebook group and since has expanded to an amazing website for Moms to find advice, comradery and sometimes a just good vent! Check it out it's an awesome resource for new moms!



Recently Cecelia (one of their awesome bloggers) shared a post about raising girls today that I just have to share.

Her commentary is not to be missed, please take a moment to read it, share it with your husband and discuss it with your girlfriends. Our girls (not a girl mom yet but hope to someday be one!) are too precious not to be protected! This discussion needs to happen now!


So now that you've read that, you have right!? If not scroll back up and try again! I'm serious :)


Ok now for some Super Bowl Fun
Here are a few of my favorite recipes for today!





Happy Super Bowl Sunday!!!

Our Christmas Card

We used tiny prints to create our fabulous card, I love them so much! But first is are our card from the last year!


I can not believe how little he was!

While we were in Disney we did a photo shoot with Tara Minkler a fabulous photographer. They came out better than we expected and are what we used for our card.

Here it is!


And here are a few of my favorite shots, some we used, some we didn't. I am working on getting some of them on canvas for the new house!





















Happy Wednesday!
