my DIY

Back in February for my birthday my mother gave me this large vase which I had been obsessing about.  I changed the location of it around my house a few times. Finally I found the perfect spot but the vase was empty. Then I found fake green leaves in my house (I have no clue where they came from). A light bulb went off in my head. I got the lime green spray paint that happens to match most of my kitchen and living room decor and went to town with this easy project.

decorating with shells

Last weekend I made a trip to Micheal's and picked up this jar. I wanted to display the cute shells Mike finds on the beach. I added sand that my mason jars still had from our wedding. Now the shells and sand have a home in the guest bathroom. Mike doesn't think it's manly, but he is the one that brings shells home.

I recently found out that with smart phones you're able to pull up coupons and stores are able to scan it right from your phone so there is no need to print coupons. Used that knowledge to get a great discount on the jar. Good for the environment and good for me.
