Living Room Seating ~

So a long story short - we had a leak in the family room, we had to put in new carpet, then the kitchen table didn't look good, then I moved the dining room table into the kitchen and now I have a living room again!

So I have been thinking of ways to arrange the seating and I really like this idea:



 hum...are you seeing a pattern?

 
Yep, I really like having four chairs around a coffee table/ottoman...hum...

 How about you? Do you have couches are chairs?

Don't forget to enter my Urban Walls Giveaway - $50 bucks to spend on some fabulous wall decals! 



I hope you have a great weekend!

Easter Project ~

Easter | Inspiration

I thought this would be a fun re-post with Easter right around the corner...
it was one of those timeless projects.

Also, I have a great $50 Urban Walls Giveaway going on right now
 if it haven't entered be sure to check it out!

I recently picked up this egg at Michaels and my husband kept asking "What ARE you going to do with this?" Well I decided to transform my blue foam egg!

I started by spray painting it Heirloom White -

I then mixed together silver and gold paint and sort of "fauxed" the egg to give it a little texture -

And what egg is complete without a few dots - 
 

Added a ribbon - 


And I wanted to make a tag so I grabbed one of these frames I picked up at Michaels for $1 - 
 

And put it all together- 
 

I just love how it turned out!

Mini German Pancakes ~

Recipe | Food Inspiration

I just saw this recipe on Pinterest today. 
I am thinking these would be perfect for Easter brunch, so I thought I would share.

Ingredients
1 cup milk
6 eggs
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. orange zest (optional)
1/4 cup butter, melted

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Blend first six ingredients (milk thru orange zest) in a blender.  Be careful to see that any flour clumps get well-blended.
  2. Blend in butter a little at a time in order to temper the eggs.
  3. Grease muffin tins well and distribute batter evenly between 24 tins (I did more like 18. Gimme Some Oven’s tins were slightly less than half-full.  I used a 1/4 cup measuring cup and filled it almost full.) Bake for 15 minutes, or until puffy and golden on top.
  4. Served with your favorite toppings.
The pin originated from Real Mom Kitchen.
Happy Sunday!
