Thursday's Random Thoughts

  •  As much as I love the snow, I can feel spring fever starting to creep in. I'm sure it will be out in full force after a few more weeks of this winter stuff. Can't wait to fill some of my mason jars with pretty flowers like this.
  • The floors in our bedroom are done and we were finally able to sleep in there last night with the mattress not on the floor. Now we're in the market for a bed. These are a few of our top choices. Hopefully we'll be making a decision tonight after we check out one more store. 
ashby sleigh bed
farmhouse bed
  • Did you know the Pottery Barn website has a little "design studio?" It lets you try out different pieces of furniture together and has ideas based on rooms. Love it.
  • Valentine's Day is a month from tomorrow. How is January half over already? Although J & I aren't big into Valentine's day, I love a reason to give a pretty card.

  •  Got the post Christmas blues? Sign up for the "DEFEAT THE XMAS BLUES SWAP!"  This will be my first swap and I'm really excited!  Check out the details here!

I love both bed choices, but think I would pick the second... they're both so gorgeous though! Good luck choosing -- it took me forever to decide. :)
I hope you're staying warm down in RI - I couldn't believe how much snow we got! And another storm headed this way for Tuesday? I'm with you on spring fever... bring on April. :)

I'm down with that farmhouse bed too...and hello, mason jars are the best. You just made me wish the next three months away so we can get to tulip season. SIGH. Happy Thursday! xoxo {av}

i can't wait for Spring to get here to have fresh flowers in the house!

the first bed kinda looks like the one i have.

glad you have your floors done! that must be a relief.
