canton finds and a dining room sneak peek

As I mentioned at the end of last week, I went to Canton on Friday! Coming from someone who has never been before, I was in heaven!! Not only were there so many cool booths and outdoor spaces to look at, it was just a really fun atmosphere. Although I didn't get a tonnnnnn of stuff, I did get quite a few things that I love! I was really proud of myself also because I went with $100 and came back with $35. Here are a few pics of the fun items I found...

for mail/letters ($10)


for the nursery (free from Ryan's mom)


probably for the living room somewhere ($1 each - $3)


botanical prints for the living room or dining room ($5 each - $20 total)


for silverware in the dining room ($6)


i'm going to hang these in the dining room on each side of a shelf or piece of art work with some green and tan vines popping out of them ($4 each - $8 total)


a new mailbox - ours is hideous ($12)


for under the coffee table to store blankets, computer, etc. ($6)


that's right... all that for 65 buckaroos! I can't wait to go back! I've heard it is so much fun in the fall/winter!! 

also... although our dining room isn't quite done yet, i figured i'd give you a sneak peak with a couple of photos...



be watching for a full reveal towards the end of the week! 

love,

I love love love the wallpaper. It's gorgeous!!! Also, I can see from the preview that yall painted the ceilings which I adore! I just moved into a new place in May, and I still can't decide what colors to paint my bedroom/bathroom. I'm thinking something light green or perhaps a nice silvery pewter (not TOO grey though), and I definitely want to paint my ceiling. I'm too indecisive to pick paint colors... need to decide soon though, the horrendous sky blue the last people painted the bathroom/kitchen/bedroom is driving me crazyyy.
