*UPDATE: re-post...sorry! Blogger formatting was a little messy for a bit - now it's fixed!
Happy Friday! I am so excited it's the weekend, how about you? I am ready for a low-key, relaxing weekend with no set plans (nice for a change)! Maybe I'll go to the pool, maybe I'll go to the beach, maybe I'll go shopping...or maybe I'll just relax! I am relishing in the fact that I can do whatever I feel - know what I mean?
I'm loving this Essie polish, "Cute as a Button." I currently have gel nails (anyone else obsessed?), but am thinking I will give my nails a break next time and go for this fun, summer shade!
How refreshing does watermelon and strawberry lemonade sound? I came across this recipe on Pinterest, and am hoping to try it out this weekend.
I have a love/hate relationship with chalkboard walls, doors, cabinets, etc...On one hand, I love the idea - I think it's a fun, unexpected way to spice up a dull space. On the other hand, some of them end up looking so messy, it takes away from the charm. Here are a few chalkboard spaces I am currently loving. What are your thoughts on the 'chalkboard wall?' Do you have one in your home?

great inspiration pics! I love how chalkboards look in other peoples homes but I'm more of a dry erase type of girl....although some how I don't think that would look as cute ;)
ReplyDeleteHa! I am going to have to agree with you! ;)

I get Shellac, is that the same as gel? Its's wonderful--lasts for weeks and doesn't chip!
ReplyDeleteI like the chalkboard paint too. Our friends have one wall in their guest bathroom painted with it. Kind of fun but out of the way at the same time.
I think they are the same or similar at least! ;)

I love that Essie color! I like the idea of a chalkboard wall and in our house I painted a piece of wood and framed it instead of painting a whole wall or cabinet door. That way I can easily take it down if I get tired of it! Hope you are having a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea, Andrea! Hope you had a great weekend!

i think chalkboard walls can either be great or, like you said, a big mess. however, when they are cleaned and maintained, they can really add to a room. i like all the images that you have of them :)
