I AM the Crazy List Lady





I
Heart
Love
Obsess over
Like lists. A lot. Excel is my dream come true. They make me happy in a deep and fulfilling way.

My husband can attest to this fact, lists litter our home. I have to-do lists, packing lists, menu lists, shopping lists, grocery lists… if it is a list, well, it probably lives here.

My husband likes lists too. Not as much as I do, but I think he takes pride in my list-loving self. We rarely forget anything when we are on a trip. Wha-cha, see it has its purposes!!!

So today, I am giving you my packing lists, so you too may never forget anything at home. If you are as anal as I am, you will end up taking your list with you to repack and make sure everything comes home with you as well.

Kudos to our list making selves!!!

I am giving these to you in JPG form, but if for any reason you have issues saving them, I would be happy to email you a PDF, just let me know!!!!

My living room!



So I said I would be using this blog to show you all that I am changing to make my house cozy, chic, and homey. To appreciate what it will become, you have to see how it is in the beginning. A relatively blank canvas! Always feel free to throw out an idea or two!!!


There is only one other angle view, and I can't find a picture to put up of it! I guess that will come sooner or later.
Have a lovely evening.

A Handmade Christmas!



As you will soon see, or if you know me IRL, you know my husband and I are HUGE Ana White fans. She blogs about furniture design and how you can do it yourself! Go check her out! You will soon see her beautiful farmhouse table design in our kitchen, and other pieces of hers sprinkled through our home.
Well, she is hosting a handmade Christmas, and inviting people to post their own tutorials, and letting the rest of us use them to make handmade Christmas presents. How cool is that? I knew I loved her! Check back often for new ideas!
