high chair

i bought this high chair a while back and had stained it a dark brown to match my table and chairs. however, it was a really crappy stain job and after a couple of months of my two year old using it, it was looking really gross, so i sanded the stain off and painted it with some leftover orange paint i had lying around!


restaurant style high chair: $5

i found these cute things at the good ol' d.i.

i'm thinking they're candle stick holders of some kind, but i'm going to use them as knick knacks instead.

teapot

i don't drink tea... but if i did i would totally use this teapot. isn't it cute?

ties!

despite being pregnant with my first boy, i really haven't been too excited about shopping for clothes for him, because well, let's face it... boy's clothes just aren't as fun to shop for as girls'.

however, there's nothing cuter than a little boy all dressed up, and i found these children's ties at the good ol' d.i. for $2!

i think they'll look perfect with a mini suit!

child-sized ties: $2 a piece
