Hope you all had a lovely weekend. We were suppose to be hit with a lot of rain in NY this past weekend, but it actually ended up being a mostly sunny weekend!
We did take cover from the little bit of rain we got and headed to the mall. As many of you may know I love a good bargain. When I started working with design clients one of my favorite sources for budget friendly lamps and window treatments was/is JcPenney’s Well they recently contacted me and offered me a $200 gift card to check out the new JcPenney. I’m sure you’ve all seen the commercials. Starting on 2/1 JcPenney’s changed the way they handle sales. Now all items will be at their sale prices so no more having to wait for a special day or hoarding away coupons. I decided that my house has gotten enough love lately with purchases so it was time to spend that gift card on us!
Hudson got some PJ’s, Jon got some sneakers and I picked out some clothes:
After shopping till we dropped we headed home to continue work on Hudson’s nursery. Almost finished..I swear. It takes me a millions years to make final decisions in my own home, but they are finally all made. Now just waiting on my workroom to finish up the window treatments.
On Sunday got his own Treat yo self experience when we headed to Harbor Freight Tools. While that type of store is not normally my cup of tea I was dying to check it out, because a while back I had blogged about some of their carts.
I got to see them in person and I still love them. The navy one is my favorite. I think it would make for a great bar:
Little Hudson has been awake more and more lately and he decided he wanted to check out our purchases as well:
We ended our treat ourselves weekend by going out to lunch. Hudson was making some funny faces and I just had to share:
Ah so sweet. These days Jon and I just want to burst with happiness. He is simply wonderful!
Don’t worry we also managed to get a bit of interior design business accomplished and headed to Blick to pick up supplies for our etsy shop:
Also due to the mostly sunny weekend I was able to take pictures of a bunch of new pieces for the shop. Editing them today and they should be available tomorrow.
I hope you all took a little time to treat yourselves as well. 🙂
My husband and I were at Harbor Freight this weekend and I was also looking at the carts! I mentioned several ideas for using them in our home…maybe your post will finally convince my husband that one of these is a must-have item!

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
Fall is the perfect season to host an outdoor movie night in your backyard! It’s that time of year when outdoor furniture is still outside and it gets dark earlier than the summer which means your little kiddos can enjoy the movie night as well. It’s so nice to transform your backyard with cozy blankets, […]
Can you believe it’s already November? Before we know it Thanks No. 1 Modern bar cart with patterned sides that looks great as is, but would also look amazing painted a pop of color! Plus it’s only $157. No. 2 This lucite bar cart is a personal favorite of mine. Look at those chic lines! […]
For the longest time our backyard was mainly just grass and a little small area where we laid down some pavers so that we could set out a little plastic table/chairs during the summer. Not exactly ideal for entertaining. For the past couple of years we have wanted to build a deck and enjoy the […]
It looks like it was a lovely few days for you-I cannot get over how cute some of the stuff from JC Penney looks!
I need to go check out those carts at Harbor Freight- I saw your last post on them and I have been meaning to check them out!
