Random Musings

Care to have a peek inside a brain that never stops? Here’s a sampling of what’s running around in my head right now.

As soon as the temps dip below 90-degrees, I’m painting my nails navy blue. Do you have any suggestions on a brand and color?

Wonder when these Anthro plates will go on sale so I can buy them? Because I certainly have no need for them, but if they’re on sale, then I’d be a fool to pass them up!

I’m usually a House Beautiful girl, but Traditional Home‘s July/August issue to’e it up! Or TradHome if you’re a cool kid.

This bedroom gives me hope that my Living Room color scheme will work out.

via

If I could get my act together, I’d have some sort of Back-to-School party for my kids like Just Call Me Martha.

Probably not going to happen. Maybe I’ll set a cute table for dinner to celebrate the first day?

via

Speaking of setting a table, I need to create a tablescape using shells before Summer is over. And I think I should paint my kitchen the color of these cabinets. Any guesses what color it is?

And finally,

Thanks for letting me get this out in the open, hope your Thursday is great! Don’t forget to enter the Photo Canvas Giveaway!

  5. Cassie- I know you put that poster image on there just for me. 😉 Guess what! We have one mind because I put those same anthro plates on my Christmas wish list last year. My guess is that they will still be one there this year. xo

  6. That last picture is great. Fun post. Just picked up some great bowls on sale at anthro. And yes, a milk and cookies back to school party is haunting me and not sure I can pull it off! 🙂

    Hi, Cassie! I love the bottom picture! I think I need to get that for my house. For navy blue nail polish, I love China Glaze's Little Drummer Boy. I'm not sure if it was limited edition last Christmas or not, but it's the best navy blue I've tried. Take care!

    I can't wait for fall to start wearing dark nail polish again — navy blue will definitely be one I try out. I don't know the name of a good color, though.

    Those anthro plates are gorgeous!

  18. I loved that navy polish too. I'm not sure but OPI Road House Rules is close but it might be a little more on the purple side.
