What a brilliant idea.  A site that offers high quailty & designer home decor items on the cheap.  It has food stuff too!  I’m sold.

I saw One Kings Lane on The Martha Stewart show and I just KNEW it had to be a FLM.

This site features time-sensitive sales and tells you ahead of time whats going on for the week!  The best part?  The orignal price is shown so you know exactly what you’re saving.

I looooove this drink dispenser for entertaining at home, and it’s less than half of the retail price!

And check out this super cute bullitan board (I think I just got inspired to try and make something similar!):

Go sign up, and get inspired!

Remember my party planning friend Karis who put together this awesome Princess Tea Party for her little girl? Well, she’s got a blog up and running, and it’s April’s FLM.

Check out this sweet handmade bridal shower she did recently.

“Wishing Tree”, such a cute idea:

Loving these “it’s your day” cupcakes. She’s the cupcake queen.

There’s more on her blog:  The Sunshine Studio. She is working on getting a website up also.

You’ll be seeing Karis’ skills again for our better-late-than-never housewarming party in June. It’s gonna be awesome.

Yes I realize that it’s still March, and we already had a FLM with Etsy… but I couldn’t wait, anthro just launched this!

Anthropologie is in the top 5 favorite stores of my LIFE and now they just announced a new addition to their site: The Decorator.

It’s got tips, tools and other cool stuff like my personal favorite, DIY hardware. I highly recommend playing around a bit with this when you get a chance. You get to try out knobs and handles without even stepping foot in the store!

Oh man, just stumbled across these adorable tiffany blue cabinet handles. They would perfectly match our dining chairs!

Ok… I have to leave this site before I get in trouble.

If you don’t know about this FLM, today is your day of reckoning.

Etsy is the end-all be-all of handcrafted and vintage goodness.  Secret time. I myself had an Etsy shop last year.  I made some crafts. I even got a few sales!  My free time grew scarce and I couldn’t keep up with it any longer, but I will definitely be a shopper for life even if I can’t be a seller.

Check out this cute and sleek piece of work from a new Etsy shop I stumbled upon,  Frillychilidesign:

Isn’t this headband from the Etsy shop of  Brittany Chavers Studio absolutely darling?! 

I love the vintage design, and I’m a huge fan of flowers in the hair.  Plus I have an obsession with lace.  So fabulously feminine.

Speaking of vintage, I did mention that Etsy sells actual old vintage items too, right?

This dress from the Jumblelaya shop is amazing:

I feel like I should be wearing this while welcoming the hubs at the door when he arrives from work.  The epitome of a 50’s era housewife.  “Honey, I’m home!”

I could go on and on… and on. And. on.

Etsy rocks my socks off.

I’ve decided to do a monthly post dedicated to stuff I like.  Plain and simple. 

This blog revolves around homelife and projects, but I’m not limiting the content  in this category to such.  I’m a girl.  And girls like fashion and pretty items and lots of other things too (amen).

Not only does this feed my insatiable appetite for all things creative, but it gives another creator a shameless plug.

So stay tuned.  This week’s FLM is comin’ right up!
