~Some New Touches & Another Scale~

Hi everybody! It is snowing tonight in my little corner of the world! A very pretty white, soft, fluffy snow. All the kiddos are tucked in bed and it is quiet. Today was very hectic~lots of appointments and errands to be run. And yes one of those errands was back to Walgreens (again) our 4 year old son Alex has a double ear infection! :( We had a really rough night when it started but happy to say he is doing much better...AND he is the FIRST one out of all five kids to have an ear infection~can you believe it? None of our kids have ever had one let alone a double ear infection! Alex is our first! He is back to 100% full energy so that is good!

I spent some of this morning rearranging above my kitchen cabinets. I will take pictures when I get done. I get too bored too fast with the way something is. So I had just been looking at it and thought it needed to be simplified and switched up. A work in progress. I did move my flour sifter from up above my cabinets and put it on the wall over by the kitchen table~

Other exciting kitchen news~we got our new door knobs and drawer pulls on! And I really like the way they look! With our black appliances I really think it sets everything off so nice~if you would like to see close up pictures of the top of my toaster cover you can check my previous post, I added a couple pictures~

And now about these scales~I just love them! Why do I love them, what is it about them? I don't know, I just think they are great! I have seen them in wonderful rustic finishes in black, rusty, cream, green, red and even orange! Each one is so unique. I just want to buy them all up! But for now I have three~I got the black one and the cream one on my birthday when my hubby took me to the antique mall and I couldn't decide which one I wanted so...I got both! :) This last one I got because of the red numbers....I just loved it...and it was only $9.50! The black one was $15 and the cream one was $12~so in my opinion that is a fairly cheap addiction...um I mean collection! I have visions of putting a shelf above my double patio doors and just put a collection of scales up there. Sometimes I think things can look nice all grouped together. Any opinions out there please share them. I am NOT the type of person who likes clutter. But somehow I feel like an organized collection can look nice. And don't worry I won't go crazy buying scales....like I said NO clutter. I would like to have a green one though. I welcome all of your thoughts. Here are the three that I have now~

And here is one more I picked up for one of my best blog friends! I packed it up quick and sent it before I kept it for myself! LOL....I'm just kidding....I can't wait until she gets it! It's a great one~

Well...time to flip another load of laundry trying to get that done so it is not something I have to be doing tomorrow. As you all know laundry is such a vicious cycle....I can't ever seem to keep up with it! Hoping to make a little pegboard for my upstairs bathroom this weekend. I have a board and some masonry nails. Just have to decide what color I want it! I hope I can find the time to make it. The chrome one in there now has GOT to go! Have a great weekend everybody! Until next time. Take care. ~Sarah~
