Labor Day Weekend

Emma and I had a VERY productive weekend. I finally made the Dollar Store Hurricanes that I have been wanting to try to make... It was SUPER EASY! I bought 4 candle stick holders for tapered candles and 2 large and two small hurricane holders... and with some crazy glue this is what Emma and I ended up with... 



Not too bad for $2.00 a piece for the glassware and $2.00 a piece for the fillers used... so not too shabby for $4.00 total... Just look at these from Pottery Barn  for $16.00 - $39.00 a piece. 

Emma and I also did some DIY projects for her new bedroom. She is requesting that we paint the room light purple so I thought that some new accessories in dark purple would fit in well. 

So we covered up the Lilly Pulitzer...  



and I armed Emma with some spray paint... 



we went from a a mixture of clearance items from Home Goods 


to uniformed accessories for the new room!!! 


I cannot wait to show you all what they end up looking like.
