{Happy Royal Wedding Day}

Will and Kate
Are you up? Are you watching? I can't lie it was tough getting up, but I just couldn't miss watching this iconic day live. DVR is for Grey's Anatomy, not the Royal Wedding, right? I'm currently Tweeting my 2 cents - come follow me!

Enjoy your weekend Peeps {sorry I'm so brief this morning - I've got a Royal Wedding to watch}!

{Linen Closet Organization}

When I grow up, I want to have a linen closet that looks just like this - full of  Egyptian cotton sheets, separated by clear dividers and wrapped in a ribbon. But for now I'm grateful for my little linen closet with wire shelves and sheets from Home Goods!

And look what I've found - how to properly fold a fitted sheet - this is something that is a royal pain in the {fill in the blank}. Random, I know...but I recently had a conversation about how to fold fitted sheets and was excited when I saw this. It's the little things...

{Royal Wedding: Things That Make You Go...Hmmm}

So who's ready for the Royal Wedding on Friday? I must admit that I'm too excited and will definitely be waking up at 4am to watch the festivities {I mean how can you not watch this historical, iconic, event LIVE?}. At work, the Royal Wedding is definitely a constant conversation - the guys think us girls are ridiculous, and us girls think they're ridiculous. {We all know, secretly, they'll be watching too}. One of my co-workers found this Knit Your Own Royal Wedding book below yesterday, which got me thinking and searching the web to see what other craziness I could find. So here we go...
Royal Wedding Final
1. Yep - Knit Your Own Royal Wedding. PLEASE check this out...all I can say is WOW!
2. I had to put in a classic pillow amongst all the craziness...I actually want one!
3. Wills and Kate tea bags anyone?
4. Keep Calm ~ Harry Is Still Single {but he won't be King...}
5. Tiara cookie cutter - I'm actually going to try and make an egg-over-easy in this on Friday morning. {I'm sure they have this cookie cutter at Michaels... I'll post pics if it works}
6. It Should Have Been Me - well not really, but you get it...
7. Wills and Kate PEZ - now this is genius!

The countdown is on! Are you getting up for the wedding? Or could you care less?

{Oversized Clutches}

I've been noticing these gorgeous oversized/slouchy clutches lately and can I just say, I really want one.  I think they add that touch of femininity to simple outfits that makes a subtle statement of fine fashion sense.

{DIY: Rhino Head}

A few weeks ago, while watching the Antonio Treatment on HGTV, I fell in love with this enormous rhino head that he created and spray painted pink. I immediately knew that I had to have one - so the search was on... and I found one {just not as big - but does size really matter? lol}!

{The rhino head is from Z Gallerie and the gold spray paint I had laying around the house - I just couldn't do bright pink...}
