Every Grammy should have “Santa Mugs” for hot chocolate & grandkids. My grandmother had them for my brother and I. I’ve been wanting them for awhile now but they were either too big or too expensive. I found these at the “Dollar Store” – yep just a buck! They’re adorable, just the right size for kids and no one will be heart broken if one gets dropped! Technically I only have 2 grandkids buttttt surely more will come and I’ll be ready! 🙂
We had a staff event yesterday for Christmas at “Topgolf”. What a blast! So much fun & good food. If you have a chance to check them out you should. You don’t even have to be a “golfer”, it’s all based on points. They have “bays” that you golf from (6 people to a bay), they have clubs and balls so you just have to show up and have fun. It’s down in Centennial. I want to take the kids!
I have this little niche in my kitchen and thought it was a perfect spot for a coffee bar. I bought the furniture piece awhile back because it was tall, perfect size & had lots of storage. I love it and decided to dress it up for Christmas – come on over for a cup of coffee! 😉
I bought the tray at Hobby Lobby, the little Christmas Bird at Michael’s, the metal icicle ledge from decorsteals.com and I had the rest of the stuff. Thanks to my friend Sherry who gave me the “Fresh Coffee” sign – it’s made of wood and adorable!
My cousin, Laura who lives in California is a quilter and has made some beautiful quilts. I just received a gift from her and it was this adorable little “Farm Quilt”! Her card read that I should have my own little farm quilt to wrap my grandbabies in, to have tea parties on or for starry nights – how stickin’ cute is that!! I just love it – it brought tears to my eyes to have something so special! Thank you Laura!!!! xoxo
I still have to paint the ceiling and add the light fixture over the tub, but I couldn’t take it anymore – not have some pretty things in there! I already had most everything – I bought the white metal wall cabinet by the tub (Home Goods), the towels (still have the tags, from Tuesday Morning) and the shelf over the toilet – welllll I bought the brackets at Hobby Lobby and the wood shelf is actually a piece of wood I salvaged from the back porch – it was a support in between the roof rafters, lol. 😉
Wayne came over last Thursday and was an excellent supervisor!! I got the water valves for the vanity and toilet on and the vanity hooked up. Then Friday night I put the toilet in which was much easier than I anticipated – thank goodness! Love my new Delta toilet. So, tub, vanity & toilet are in – still need to finish the closet and get the shower tiled and functioning. We’ll seeeee about the shower tile – hoping “I” won’t have to do it and hoping to get that done before Christmas. THANK YOU WAYNEY for all you help!!!
The plumber finished my tub last night – yippee! It looks beautiful! Hoping to get the vanity & my new Delta toilet done tonight. Wayne & Carol are coming by, Wayne is a retired plumber and overall handyman kinda guy. I’ve asked him to supervise my installation, lol. I’m kind of excited – I love learning how to do this stuff. (The tub was above my pay grade.)
Mirror hung! Faucet attached! Plumber coming tonight to hopefully finish my tub!! Then I just need to hook up the faucet and new toilet to the plumbing. I found the mirror a few months ago at Home Goods and my faucet is from Home Depot and it’s Kingston Crystal Knob Satin Nickel. LOVE! 😉
