• A Few Of My Favorite (Thrifty) Things
  
  Here are a few of my favorite decorations around our new place. I found this 'P' at a thrift store for 50 cents. The Home sign in the middle was a thrift store find for around $3.

  I’ve wanted to write this post for quite some time but in an ironic twist the same reason I wanted to write this post was also keeping me from writing this post.
