Sunday Confessions

Goooooood Moooorning Blogland!! 


Happy Sunday, people! As per usual, it's time for Sunday Confessions, so grab a button and link on up!

 
1. I think I'm becoming a sewing addict. Am I good? Not really [yet]. Have I had to rip out stitches more than once twice fifteen times? Probably. But you don't get good at something without practicing. This weekend I made a maxi dress (which I am totally wearing to church today) and a maxi skirt. Don't worry, you'll see pictures of both soon.

2. I'm looking at Formica for our countertops. Uhhh when did they start making formica countertops that actually look good? 
3. I watched "The Vanilla Ice Project" and liked it. One hit wonder turned house flipper who has his own TV show. Yeah, that's destined to be good.

4. I got paint in my eye yesterday. I don't think this is a confession, but I felt like telling the world, so there ya go. Observe the totally rockin' pajama shirt.
5. I am sooo excited for the Christmas in July link-up on Wednesday. Yes, that was a shameless plug. Get your posts ready, people! And if you haven't sent your package yet, I'll send you a biting fly in the mail. That's a lie. But I'll be sad, so send it, please!

I'm a new follower and this is my first time linking-up!
I'm a big fan of the turquoise in that kitchen. I have a shabby chic side table that is turquiose and it's a great little pop of color.
Thanks for the fun link-up! I'll definitely be linking up again and exploring you blog more :)

I rather prefer a wood coutertop but then again, it's not my kitchen, so good luck.

I think it's so great that you are learning how to sew. I always think that I want to learn how and then I remember how impatient I am. And I am getting my Christmas Post ready today. Woot Woot! So excited for it as well.

That is some pretty awesome formica! And look at you, turning into a domestic diva with a new house, and all those mad sewing skills you're cultivating =).

The Vanilla Ice Project?! Hells to the yeah.
I want to thank you Alyx for always posting about random TV shows that I would never know about since I live in the middle of nowhere. Please don't stop. I always have something to watch while I do the ironing now thanks to you :)

Unknown said...

Ooh thanks for the reminder! Off to write my post!
