twins' nursery

In my serious lack of blogging, I realized I had never posted pics of the babies' nursery!

I needed to create something gender neutral since it is a room for a boy and a girl so I looked to my stand by color, navy, to help me get this accomplished! I had a remnant of a beautiful green and navy floral that I used as my starting off point. I had that made into simple box-pleat valances with a navy band. We chose espresso cribs to create a richer look in the room. I also had a super comfy chair slipcovered in white with navy banding ( I know..."White chair in a nursery?!?" It is a slipcover I can wash and has been stain treated so hopefully it holds up!!).

Here's the pics!

Above the cribs is still a work in progress and with my hands full with babies, it might be for awhile!!

This pretty much sums up how I feel most of the time, always trying to do my best being the best mother possible, the best wife to my husband, a good friend, etc....

While I make more mistakes than I would like to admit, I always have the best intentions and try my absolute hardest!

loafin' around

I do love me some flats...ballet, loafer, any kind, all the time! I am digging these from Tory Burch. The tan canvas and pop of orange make them perfect for warmer weather. Can totally picture them with a crisp white button-down and dark denim cropped skinnies! Would definitely make my days spent running around with the kids a little more chic and fashionable!

out of the box

How creative is this storage in the kitchen? Using iron etageres placed on top of counters as storage and display in the kitchen...would have never thought of it! The rest of the space isn't too shabby either! The over-sized chandelier definitely makes a statement!

favorite find of the week 3.1

I didn't discover the Clarisonic this week but it is a favorite of mine any day of the week! I got it awhile ago and have been meaning to write about how awesome it is for some time.  I use it in the morning and it scrubs the late night away and leaves my face feeling fresh and rejuvenated! Since I have been using it, I have had hardly any breakouts which is a plus! I would recommend this product to everyone!

This weekend is supposed to be pretty chilly by Florida standards. Looking forward to getting a few more days in of boots and scarves and then they are off to the closet until December!
