2 Random Tidbits

1:  I learned over the weekend that yes, it is possible to hem curtains while they are still hanging.  I don't exactly recommend it, but now the curtains in my master bedroom are an appropriate length, and it also means I can cross of #69 on my 101 in 1001 list! 

2:  Remember this yard sale find?  (You can see the original post here).


Well, I was looking through the latest Pottery Barn Teen catalog, and lookee here what I found....


See it?  On the left?  2nd "drawer" down?  Clearly, someone from Pottery Barn must have seen my blog and was immediately inspired.  I'm expecting a big fat bonus check any day now.

Ok, obviously kidding.  But it was pretty cool to see my lucky $3 yard sale find in a Pottery Barn catalog :)

One last random tidbit....have you entered my Uprinting.com giveaway yet?  Free letterhead up for grabs!  Ends tomorrow!

    And now I'm kicking myself for not scooping up that crate when I saw it!!! I honestly stood there and debated if it was worth $3 and then thought, "oh I'll head back in an hour or two and see if it's still there" and then you swooped in!! lucky girl!!
