Fab not Drab Party and Features #5

This week has been hunting week. I hunted for plates for Laryssa’s Shower-found. I hunted for a buffet or dresser to turn into a buffet-not found, COME ON UNIVERSE! I hunted for the perfect vacuum-found (Mr. Awesome broke the last one in a hissy fit after being asked to vacuum…okay not really, it was a super cheap vacuum and just broke). And for the last 2 days, I have been searching for the perfect curtains…don’t worry, that deserves it’s own blog post. On to the party!
I love these bookends from Design Fluff. I’ve also been not technically “on the hunt” but casually looking for similar statues to paint…I did fine one so look for the post “The Pineapple Incident” soon to come. I totally agree that these resemble chess pieces which I kinda love! I’ve seen chess pieces at Hobby Lobby and have debated over getting them but never want to pay the price. My new favorite aisle in Goodwill might be the one with random statues. Great job!
This Petticoat from Amanda at Simply Homemade sure makes me wish that 1. I knew how to sew….okay Mom, I give in, you can teach me! and 2. that Arizona had cooler weather so I could wear amazing Petticoats like this more than just twice a year! It is BEAUTIFUL! I love the fabric, the pattern, the buttons, and the yellow scarf! I’m pretty sure I want Amanda to make me one…hint hint! You are very talented and this petticoat is gorgeous. LOVE IT!Now that I am done drooling over these 2 amazing projects, here is the featured button for you gals!
