Week 17: Oh what to do...

I have to admit, I wasn't exactly looking forward to doing ANYTHING this weekend.  My house is a wreck and I'm tired, which made the thought of doing something fun feel all wrong.  In an effort to get out and spend time with Sadie, I picked the project below.  It gave Sadie and I a chance to go antique shopping in town.  She LOVES to shop!

We walked out with a few bags filled with antiques...MOST of which were FREE.  The owner of the shop (my Kindergarten teacher nearly 30 years ago) was very helpful once I told her what I wanted to create.  She searched the very back of the store and found random pieces of china that worked perfectly for this project.  I did purchase the brass candlesticks, though.  I simply used liquid nails to adhere the pieces together and that's it!  Now all I need is a reason to use it...LOL...

Because this project was so simple, I felt a little funny dedicating an entire post to it.  Lucky for me I pinned a VERY cool and free Facebook timeline resource earlier this morning.  I have been dreading switching to the timeline because I knew it would drive me crazy without having a cool cover photo.  This resource made it possible...within a short time I created this:

I'm still searching for decorations for the month of May.  It's not easy.  I'm finding a ton of Spring themed stuff but feel like it looks too Easter-y.  Please be on the lookout!
