Mini Hall Way

This weekend was another very busy weekend. Sweetheart and I went to see the new Ghost Rider movie on Saturday morning. It was disappointing to say the least, but we definitely enjoyed our day out. We went to Tempe Market Place which is an outdoor mall. We went to the movies, did some shopping and had some lunch. Good times.

After the movies I did my housecleaning and laundry and the grocery shopping. On Sunday after mass, my Sweetheart and I went to IKEA. I bought these cool picture boxes...I don't know the official name. But I will describe them as fabric wrapped picture boxes. So stinking cute. And I also had these picture frames that I bought at Target specifically for this spot.

My Sweetheart hung the frames for me and assembled the boxes on Sunday.

I think it adds charm to this very tiny hallway:

Smalls wins. Sometimes that's all I can ask for.

Valentine's Day Decor

This past weekend I decided to get it together and I put a few of my Valentine day decorations out. Just a subtle touch is what I like for this holiday.


I have these red and white heart tea light holders that I place around the house. I love them because I love tealights:


I bought them at the dollar section at Target about 4 years ago. I'm so glad I picked a handful of them:


I added a few holiday touches to the entrance way table:


I picked up "love" sign at Walmart for $1:




I made this about 2 years ago when I saw some chalkboard projects posted in blogland. I thought it was pretty good for an amateur.


I took this print (and the red one above) from this blog ( HERE ) that I found on blogland. I see these 'subway' prints all around blogland. I downloaded my prints and had them printed at Walgreens to save ink on my printer. I love the way they turned out:


It's simple, but that's how I like it.
