I don’t think this needs any explanation. These designers found ways to make poufs work in every color of the rainbow. The pouf is a great way to add a punch of personality to any room, but is particularly perfect for plopping (say that 5 times fast!) your feet on for those midnight feedings. My only question is, why didn’t I have one in mine?

All New Look

I’ve gotta say, when I set out to have my blog overhauled, I had some ideas, but Andrea with Pics-O-Andrea really brought it to life. It turned out Just how I had imagined. She’s a bit fabulous. So why the sudden change? I’m on a journey to find me again and I’m hoping that blogging about the things that I love will help. I have been accused of being a pathological “window shopper” and take my sweet time putting things together at home. It is the most accurate accusation ever! Part of my problem is budget. Whose isn’t, right? Another problem is that I have so many ideas ping ponging around in my brain that I have to peruse EVERY store on the planet to get it just right for me. There are a few problems with this. 1. I tend to change things up before a room has even been finished. I usually think, “Well it’s not finished, so I’m not changing an entirely finished room so it’s not as big of a deal.” That’s rationalization at its best! 2. I would probably save money in the long run if I just finished one thing through to the end. I have this one room in my house that I consider “done”. (For now. hehe) I LOVE it and have loved it for some time now. So I know that if I just finish, I have the ability to love it without a need to constantly change it. That’s what the next project is for right? So the point of ALL of that is that I’m going to take you on my window shopping journey and hopefully be able to finish some things along the way. I hope you’ll hang in there and tag along. So here’s what’s new.
The first major change is the overall look of the blog. (In case you hadn’t noticed) Again, Andrea did a fabulous job drawing “My San Pedro House”. Yes, that’s my house! Although I don’t have a proper “headshot” this will have to do for now. At least it has some pretties to keep me company until I can get some individual photos take. Not sure why, maybe because it feels utterly awkward, but I have never asked the photographer to take an individual photo of me before. I suppose it’s time.
Home Tour
One major change is that I’m going to actually be posting my home tour. I fell like I finally have enough of my house “done” to finally post some pictures. As I mentioned, I am an A.D.D. shopper/decorator so it has taken some time to get things comfortable around these parts. So for sure keep your eyes open for that!!
DIY
I’ve got a list of things from ALL over my house that have been DIY’d that I’ll be posting here. Some of it will be tutorials with tips that I’ve gathered along the way, and some will just be the before and afters.
Bargain Finds
This one is probably my favorite! Because of my addiction to window shopping, I tend to find REALLY good deals on things. Including amazing “Bulk Trash” finds. I love to shop and I love a good deal even MORE.
Social Media
Last, but not least, is my social media links. You can now find me on Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, Bloglovin, email and (Coming Soon) Etsy with just one click!
After having baby #3 last year, I’m finally ready to get to blogging again. For me. I am in desperate need to accomplish something. If for now that means writing for my own enjoyment, then that’s good enough for me. I hope you can gain something from my blog in some way or another. Check back for some great finds, DIY’s and perhaps more about me than you ever cared to know.
