Last week of July.....already!! Some think it's too early to be thinking about fall.....or Hallowe'en. I get it. I am not one of those people though....from here on until Christmas.....my favourite months!!
While out & about last week....the stores are stocking up with some great pieces....and cushions!! A few of my picks....adorable ghosts & pumpkins...
Hocus Pocus is one of my favourite movies... I may have to pick this cushion up....luv it!!
As much as I love a good witch's broom....the $50 price tag was a bit much!!! I see videos on how to make them.....I may have to ask Mr. Seventies to help me do that....
Squishy pumpkins are everywhere this year.....I'm crushing on these soft white ones....
I'll share a few pieces I couldn't resist.....had to pick them up.....who doesn't love a good light up Frankenstein ghost??? I sure do....and brought this guy home...
And this beautiful soft & plush throw...since my little granddaughter claimed last year's Boo throw....I couldn't resist this one......
I had a chuckle when I read this little towel.....and it just might be my spirit animal.....
When I brought home my latest Gripstand bowl..... it was the perfect time to take down all the bowls, give them a good washing.....as well as the top of the cabinets....(doing this was Mr. Seventies idea) - who am I to stop him....right? He's a keeper. In shuffling the bowls around a bit.....I have room for one more! The hunt continues......
I've been searching for a tiered stand to place in the main bath.....to hold towels, bath salts, etc. & this one from PB Kids is hopefully going to be perfect for that! Not a fan of the castors....when it arrives if they are on the legs I'll have Mr. Seventies remove them.....
I wanted something with a scallop edge.....hopeful this one will be just the right size.....
Today is manicure & pedicure day!! Little bit of pampering is needed. Tomorrow I'm changing up my hairstyle......and going with curls! I'm so excited to have curls again....my hair stylist is awesome....I know she will be great doing it!! If it turns out.....I'll share pics!!
Anyone old enough to remember home perms? And how bad they smelled? I sure do - one Saturday morning my Mom gave me a perm! Growing up, Saturday afternoon was spent at our local movie theatre & for 50 cents I'd be gone all afternoon.....meeting up with my friends....a chance to munch on stale popcorn, watered down Kool-aid and a movie! We loved going to the movies!
Until that fateful day.....my hair stunk of perm so bad.....my friends almost didn't sit with me!! I couldn't blame them.....I promised never to let my Mom give me a perm on Saturday again!!! True story.
Today is Monday.....be sure to join me over at https://betweennapsontheporch.net/ for Metamorphis Monday!
And tomorrow at https://www.myslicesoflife.com/ for Talking About It Tuesday as well as https://www.astrollthrulife.net/ for Talking About It Tuesday.
Til next time.....
Oh my gosh Charlotte, I am in love with that witch's broom - even if it is $50.00. I did not see it in our HomeSense here. Pity. The pillows were so cute and I would find them hard to resist. The throw is lovely and my oldest DIL loves HomeSense candles from Sand and Fog. I hope that you are able to remove the wheels from the tiered stand for your bathroom and I'm sure it will look great. Happy Monday, my friend and I hope you are enjoying the summer!
ReplyDeleteHi Kim - isn't that broom awesome? Going to attempt to make one....stay tuned! Summer has been awesome here....lots of hot days in the pool! Hope your summer is going well! Take care, my friend!!
DeleteI do remember those stinky home perms! You got some really cute Halloween decor. I love that cat pillow! I've seen some in the stores but haven't bought any. I did pick up some Haunted Mansion dish towels while we were in Disney last month so I did buy something early!
ReplyDeleteHappy to report the new perms my hairstylist used - very little smell - only a pleasant one! Haunted Mansion dish towels sound adorable!!
DeleteI remember the stinky perms! My mom and sister still use them. Always, always wait a couple three days before giing out in public! 😂 RHill, TX
ReplyDeleteThe perm my hair stylist used - had a very pleasant smell - not the stink I remember growing up! Thankfully....
DeleteI still get perms once a year and I still think they stink! But probably not as bad as they used to. At least the smell dissipates after a day or two. That rolling cart is so cute; even without the wheels.
ReplyDeleteI was happy to discover the perm used....had a lovely scent! Not like the horrible home perms of my childhood! And I'm very happy with my "curls"!!
