It’s Sunday! Which sadly means that tomorrow most of us return to work. I hope your weekend has been relaxing and eventful. We finally got all of Josh’s Valentine’s pieces up in the landing. It took a little finagling (one of the frames broke, one was brown, and one had a major chip) but I’m glad to say the room is almost done. Here’s what we have so far.
We got the Predator’s vinyl from Etsy. That’s my new photography cabinet on the above right (from Homegoods for under $50). I just love it. It’s so handy to have all of my equipment put away and in one place. Plus the details of the cabinet itself are so me.
We managed to work in our guest polaroids from the wedding and the Star Wars painting I got Josh a while ago (again from Etsy). Kito seems to like it. We almost have enough bottle caps to cover the coffee table. Hopefully after our St. Patrick’s Day party/beer tasting we’ll have enough. After we finish the table I’m planning to add a neutral lamp and we’ll be finished (for now).
We also made a Food Passport inspired from Pinterest. There are 45 weeks left in 2013, but we only added 25 restaurants because we don’t go out all that much and some of the restaurants are very expensive so it’s not really practical to do that every week. Here’s what ours looks like.
I arranged the list alphabetically, by location, by type of food, and by cost. We only included restaurants neither of us have been to (our only criteria).
After all that, I put several restaurants on each following page to use as the actual “passport” (sorry the picture is so blurry. I was trying to hold the passport and the camera, things were getting crazy).
I plan on getting a thumb stamp so we can give the restaurants we go to a “passport stamp” of a thumbs up or a thumbs down (maybe even two thumbs up). I told you I was feeling a little more creative than usual.
Tonight we’re going to our glassblowing class and dinner (with ice cream eh hem) and then we’re off to our first small group meeting. I can’t say I’m not nervous. Hopefully it will go well. Wish me luck!
