Pinterest.com

So my addiction to online shopping has only gotten worse with the discovery of pinterest.com.  I will say it has also inspired me to be a little more creative, but it is also inspiring me to spend a lot  more money.  As soon as my husband figures out what is going on, I will more than likely be on a budget.  Lucky for me, I handle the checking account and all the bills so that day is hopefully a while off.

I started crafty first.  I got inspired one weekend while Rocky was in Matagorda fishing and I made some Christmas decorations.  All very simple and super cheap.  I spent about a half hour in Hobby Lobby and I was set for the weekend.  The result:

Christmas trees (there is supposed to be a third one with swirls, but that got a little out of control and has been postponed until I have more time on my hands.  

A Christmas card holder (this is not actually the one I created.  Mine is cuter, but I didn't take a picture of it).

and a Christmas K!  I have no idea what to do with this, but it was so cute I had to make it. 

  My next project is a Christmas wreath, which I am very very excited about.  It could possibly be on the agenda for this weekend.  I am always looking for ways to entertain myself and avoid the craziness of fantasy football. 

Next, on Pinterest I came across fantastic organizing ideas.  It's not nesting because 1) it's way too early for that and 2) I was totally like this before I was pregnant.  So, I saw pictures like this

and decided that my house had to be organized just like that.  We have the smallest closets known to man and baskets would solve all my problems.  So, I found this amazing website (http://www.luckyclovertrading.com/) where I could order baskets wholesale.  I found these baskets which are 15 x 11 x 9 for $7.00 each!  What a deal. 

I ordered 10 of them and am eagerly awaiting their arrival.  If they make it here before the weekend, the wreath will have to wait. 

My other online shopping obsession is www. etsy.com.  They have the cutest handmade stuff.  Today I found matching outfits for Aisha and the baby and although I originally told Rocky I would not dress the baby and dog alike, I may have to rethink it.  It's just so cute!  It would be even cuter when the baby is small and new.  Perfect for a photo!  I'll have to work on him for that one.
