Last but not least (for now), I got 2 cute pots to place in my kitchen. I've been wanting to buy a couple of small plants for inside the house for a while, and I finally found the pots in the color that I wanted. I ended up getting Lavander... I hope it does well indoors :-S

Por ultimo (al menos por ahorita), compre 2 macetitas para poner en mi cocina. Habia estado queriendo comprar un par de plantas pequenas para adentro de la casa desde hace un tiempo, y finalmente encontre el color que queria en las macetas. Y termine comprando Lavanda... Espero que sobreviva en interiores :-S

Decorating with Plants

Handy Me
Almost since we moved into our house, a year ago, I knew that I wanted to install at least 1 more shelf in the laundry room's closet, and this weekend, I finally did.
We went to Lowes on Saturday and for around $30 we got everything I needed to install it. I started yesterday and then realized I needed a few extra things, so I went today and returned 1 support beam and bought the little hooks for the back of the shelf.
We also moved the kennels into here, because last weekend we finally bought a table for our dining room (yes, just the table so far... I ordered 2 chairs for the ends, but I still need to buy the other ones), and we bought a trash can with lid to put the dog food in and keep it fresh :-)

Casi desde que nos cambiamos a nuestra casa, hace un anio, me di cuenta de que necesitaba al menos otro estante en el closet del cuarto de lavar, y este fin de semana, finalmente lo instale.
Fuimos a Lowes el Sabado, y por $30 aproximadamente compramos todo lo que necesitaba para instalalo. Empece ayer y me di cuenta de que necesitaba algunas cosas extras, asi que hoy fui a devolver una de las varillas de soporte y compre unos ganchitos para la parte de atras.
Tambien movimos las jaulas de las perras ahi, porque el fin de semana pasado finalmente compramos la mesa para el comedor (si, nada mas la mesa, aunque ya ordene las sillas para las cabeceras, pero me falta comprar las otras), y compramos un bote de basura con tapa para poner la comida de las perras y mantenerla fresca :-)

Rugs
I have been looking for doormats for out house, and I've found some nice ones that I really, really liked, but of course, they were like $90... And at this point, we still have too many things to buy for our house to drop that kind of money on each of our rugs... So, I got this one from Target for our front door, I think it was about $24.
Then, I figured I would prefer neutral, solid color rugs for the inside of the house (I got 2 brown ones and a tan one), and found the other ones at Walmart for around $6!!! Not bad!!!

He estado buscando tapetes para la entrada desde hace un buen, y he encontrado unos que me han gustado mucho, pero claro, costaban como $90... Y ahorita todavia necesitamos bastantes cosas para la casa como para gastar tanto en cada tapete... Asi que compre este de Target para la puerta de la casa, se me hace que costo como $24.
Despues, decidi que preferiria tapetes de un solo color, neutrales para adentro de la casa (compre uno cafe y otro como beige), y encontre estos en Walmart por $6!!! Nada mal!!!

My flower bed
About 2 weeks ago I noticed that my plants were starting to come out!!! I was very excited and took some pictures, but never uploaded them...
Today we went to Walmart (yes, yes, I know :-S) and we bought some cute garden lights, that can be either turned on in a white light or a color changing setting.
We got 12 of them, I wanted to place some of them in the flower bed and John wants to put some around the driveway, I was unsure about that, and none of our neighbors have them around their driveway, so I'm thinking about where to put the rest of them, should it be on either side or the driveway or around the patio in the backyard (if we put them in the driveway, I think I'll buy some additional ones for the patio)??? What do you think???

Hace como 2 semanas note que mis plantas estaban empezando a salir!!! Me dio mucho gusto y tome unas fotos, pero se me habia pasado subirlas...
Hoy fui a Walmart (si, si, ya se :-S) y compramos unas lamparas para jardin que nos gustaron, y que prenden en luz blanca o cambiando de colores.
Compramos 12, yo queria poner unas en la jardinera y John queria ponerlas alrededor del area de estacionamiento de los carros, yo no estaba muy segura de hacer eso, y ninguno de nuestros vecinos tiene lamparas alrededor de su estacionamiento, asi que estoy pensando en donde poner el resto de las lamparas, alrededor del estacionamiento, o en el patio de atras (si las ponemos en frente yo creo que de todas maneras voy a comprar mas para poner atras)??? Que les parece???
