RIBBON!

I just love ribbon. My house is full of it. Not only because of hairbows but because of decor too. I think you can take something so plain & jazz it up with a fun piece or ribbon; especially according to that months Holiday. If you are bored with something, try adding some fun ribbon! I thought I would share some of my ribbon examples.

I have this in my Kitchen, I just loved it for spring!

This is my favorite piece in my Kitchen. I love to put goodies (cupcake) in this & decorate with Holiday ribbon!

The cupcake representing Ave's Birthday coming up!

I saw this idea at a local shop that I love! I got the green balls there & thought it was so cute to cover with ribbon for spring! It adds some bright color to my living room area.

I had tons of zebra ribbon left over from Christmas. It's my favorite ribbon & matches all my decor so I added a few touches here & there! I love these warm tones, but I am looking for a colored vace to replace this dark one & pop some color in the picture above this table.

I was so bored with these candle sticks & wanted a change... so I added ribbon!

So, do you think I have enough ribbon? Trust me, I have a more stored in another closet! This bend is pretty deep!

I have been so busy. I am in the middle of beginning some crafts for Avery's Birthday. We are now down to 23 days! I have invitations ordered & will be sending those out this weekend. They are just precious! They say: She's sassy & sweet & so much fun, our little diva AVERY is turning 1! You will have to wait & see the finished product though! I have ordered the cake along with her baby cake, made arrangements for 1 year pictures, & have bought almost all of the decorations. It's going to be so bright & colorful. I can hardly wait! I am looking forward to spending her 1st Bday with family & friends! It will be a day we won't forget!

Speaking of diva, this little girl is sassier than ever. She is just moving, talking, & all over the place. I am busier than I EVER thought I would be with an almost 1 year old. It's the greatest thing in the world though! I got a few pics before we left today! This outfit is from Chad's Mom. She bought it along with the bow when they were out of town a few weeks ago & I have to say it's one of the cutest things she has ever worn! Thanks Mamee!

  11. Your home looks so pretty, classy and cozy. The zebra ribbon is really pretty. Avery's a very fortunate little girl to grow up in such a pretty home and be raised by parents that love her so completely.
