I've got ideas...

First of all, I could not find the song "I've Got Ideas" by Amy Seeley anywhere on playlist to add to my playlist for this post, so instead, today you will hear another unrelated song that I am currently In.Love.With. Adele "Rolling In the Deep". So turn up your speakers and listen to this amazingly talented woman sing. Now back to my regularly scheduled post....

I've been thinking that I need to find furniture with more storage, since I am running out of that around here.

While thrift store shopping last week, I spied this...

and upon more investigation, this...

OK- I decided it was too good to pass up.

Yay for furniture with storage! I think this will get a new coat of paint and find a home in my foyer.

And, remember my can storage issue from last post? I think this will help alleviate that problem. Photobucket

You can find out more about these SUPER-COOL, affordable, can organizers at www.thecanorganizer.com

Don't you love answers to small, seemingly insignificant prayers? Can't wait to get these assembled and placed on shelves, filled with cans!

Look what Samantha made. She made this by herself, without instruction, on a pottery field trip with Talent Pool. I'm finding that she is very creative and talented.
Isn't it cute?

I'm hoping she gives it to me for Mother's Day or Arbor Day, or something. :-)

Lately, I've really been using the fun side of my brain coming up with ideas for my latest, most favorite project. *Trying to contain my excitement*, I was asked to design and decorate a wedding reception for a Anna M, down in B'ham in late August. I.Can.Not.Wait. I've got 2 daughters...it will be good practice.

And lastly, I got a new calling in the Stake YW Presidency on Sunday. I am really looking forward to getting to knwo the YW in our stake better and also the amazing women who I will get to serve with!

There sure is alot to look forward to around here. Are things this exciting where you are?
