New Obsession!!

So it's no mystery to anyone that I am currently interested, obsessed with blogging, decorating, and everything in between. Through blogs, and magazines like this...

...I have gained so much inspiration and found so many great ideas for cheap! Beyond decorating, I adore organizing, (yes, I am a nerd, whatever!) and this idea that I found through DIY magazines and blogging is SUPERB!! They are called...

...chalkboard labels! It is a shiny, black adhesive paper that can be written on with actual chalk, or a pen like this...

The nice thing about this liquid chalk is it wipes right off, allowing your paper to be re-used! I was able to get 6 ft. of paper, plus this chisel tip pen for $15 (thank you Amazon!) There are multiple uses for chalkboard labels, including...

These all look soooo good compared to mine, but hey, I'm just an amateur, I will soon become a pro at chalkboard labels (hopefully :)

Cam got the following spices at the Farmers Market for $1 each and the holders from Hobby Lobby for under $1 each (I may or may not have helped him pick out the perfect spice holders that can later be used in an apartment/house... :) Here were the results..

Again, mine kind of suck, but I am hoping I will only get better with more practice!

I also took this beautiful pictures this weekend...I am also thinking about taking up photography...HAHA NOT! But I was proud of how these few turned out :)

Happy Monday!

Until then,

Brittany
