Home Tour Part 2 - Jack's Space

 photo 10_zpsf72414df.jpg Jack's little nook of our home is finally finished. Wall hangings and all. photo 9_zps4c92d204.jpg  photo 8_zps9a73b1c8.jpg
If you're looking for an easy project with lots of pizzazz, framing fabric is just the thing for you! So cute for kids' rooms especially. (Note: The large print of the world is not fabric. That one is from Ikea). photo 4_zps87a21d23.jpg You may recognize the fabric in the black frame below from this post.  photo 5_zps93c43864.jpgThank you Walmart for the $5.00 crib bumper.  photo 12_zpsf2e8fae7.jpg The blankets on the bottom shelf in the photo below are all made by dear ones. I love storing them within Jack's reach so he can pull them out for daily snuggles. photo 1_zps54cfb81d.jpg
Ah yes, here's the toy box. photo 6_zpsef3a6cf4.jpg
And some of our favorite "stuffies." James found this horse for Jack on clearance at Anthropologie while treating me out to a special shopping trip. I couldn't talk him out of it. And I'm so glad cause look how cute! photo 2_zpsacd57692.jpg This darling elephant was designed and made by Jack's Auntie Candace (my sistah). And the children's Bibles are from some sweet friends of ours. So perfect for bedtime stories. photo 3_zpsa1b98a80.jpg
A little space to call his own. There's the man of the hour "approving this message."  photo 1_zpsa3ec0769.jpg 
Hope this post finds you and yours doing well!

Happy Thursday,

Simple As That

If I had known I could organize my necklaces so easily, I would've done it much sooner. I'm sure this idea isn't original and I'm not necessarily convinced it's all that genius, but it definitely beats tossing them in a box and having a mess of tangles to deal with every time I accessorize.  photo 5_zps9d873720.jpg 
Six nails (give or take). A hammer. The back of a closet. Done.  photo 2_zpsecf7992a.jpg The perfect place for practicing mixing and matching your jewelry. You never know what adorable combination you may happen upon.  photo 4_zps417dff91.jpg 
So wonderfully easy. And pretty too I must admit. photo 1_zpsc606fe40.jpg How do you store your necklaces? 

Happy Monday all,
