Party Gifts

We celebrated my LO's 2nd Birthday tonight and we had SO MUCH FUN!  We had a little party by the pool with TONS of treats and Pizza.  We really had so much fun!  I just can't believe how fast time flies by.  It seriously feels like just yesterday we were celebrating her 1st b-day...

I had my very talented cousin take all the photos of Lily's party so we could really focus on Lily and have fun, so I will post pictures a little later this week.  However, I thought I would share with you a quick little thing I threw together for the party.  I found these Hannah Montana Tins in the clearance section at the party store for 50 cents and I thought they would work perfect for parting gifts at the party. 

Since the theme had nothing to do with Hanna Montana, I decided to change them up a bit so they would fit in more with the decor of the party.  

All it took for this project was a couple pieces of scrapbooking paper, a pencil, scissors, and modge podge.  All I did was trace out the shape of the tin, then cover the back of the paper in modge podge and place it on the tin.  And Voila you have yourself one cute, cheap, and easy to put together package for your guests at your next party.

Pictures of the party coming soon :)

Dresser Inspiration

This is by far my favorite so far! I love the yellow against the Gray wall. (Photo Found Here)

Yesterday I was out and about running some errands when I passed by a thrift store and some amazing deal caught my eye!  So, let me rewind for a second.  Before The Hubs and I moved to Texas we sold our main dresser, and donated the other one to a garage sale for a fundraiser. So needless to say, we are in need of a dresser.  

Even though where we are living right now, The Hubs company provides furniture for us, I always have my eyes open for a good deal.  And lets just say, man did I get a deal today or what!  I got a 9 drawer dresser, a tall boy dresser with 6 large drawers, and an adorable matching nightstand all for a whopping $125.00 including delivery!  These dressers are made by Thomasville and are in great condition!  They have great detail and I think will look amazing once I can decide on a color and maybe some fresh new knobs.

I sadly didn't grab any photos before I posted this, but here are some Inspiration Photos that I found on the web. Let me know what you guys think and what your favorite ones are.

Love this shiny color from Restoration Hardware

Love the Black with the silver handles. Looks great with the Chevron rug also. (This is a lot like the style of the tall boy dresser that I scored)(Image via House of Turquoise)

I really love the powder pink hue of this dresser. Perfect for a little girls room. (Image also House of Turquoise)

Wondering if I should just stain both pieces a dark espresso finish like this one? (image via Walmart)

What do you guys think? Which one is your favorite?  Since they were such a good deal I'm feeling maybe do something fun and bold? Or should I just stay safe and do something classy?
