Take a Seat

Whew!  This last weekend we took a whirlwind of a trip to Minnesota and made our way to the Mall of America, IKEA, and HomeGoods.  I was one happy girl and even happier when we finally managed to get all my goodies to fit in the trunk of my car!  Remember our "entryway" that I showed you here?  Well I found quite the gem while I was shopping at HomeGoods!  I knew it was making the trek back to Arkansas with us the moment I saw it!  Here she is with a stellar $80 price tag!

Isn't she a beaut?  I couldn't wait to get her home and place her in my empty corner!  As soon as we pulled into the driveway, that was the first thing I did.  Who needs to unpack when I can immediately resume decorating!  A couple of throw pillows tossed on top and I was a happy camper!  These definitely aren't the forever pillows (I'm thinking grey and white chevron may be the ticket!) but it sure made our new addition fit right in!

 The top also flips open so we can store games or hats and gloves in it!  I love functionality!

We also hit up IKEA and bought everything I needed to finish up my bookshelf project (here, here and here!) and then some!  Here's me and the mister shoppin' 'til we drop!

Here's a sneak peak of our loot:

 

Three hours and a cinnamon roll later, I had everything needed to finish my monstrous project and I can't wait to show y'all the big reveal!
