For a little while I've been wanting to buy or make some small rectangular pillows for the 2 chairs in the great room, since I was getting the feeling that they looked too bare... And today, while going to JC Penney to look for curtains for the basement I found ones that basically fit my requirements... But then... we went to Target to get filters for our AC units and of course, they had similar pillows that I liked even more :-S
So I bought them too and tried them out on our chairs. In the end I decided to use the ones I got at Target here... and John took the other ones for the basement :-) Win-win!!!

Desde hace un rato habia estado queriendo comprar o hacer unas almohadas pequenas rectangulares para las 2 sillas en el cuarto familiar, porque se me hacia que se veian medio pelonas... Y hoy, mientras estabamos en JC Penney buscando unas cortinas para el sotano encontre unas que basicamente cubrian mis requisitos... Pero luego... fuimos a Target a comprar unos filtros para nuestras unidades de aire acondicionado y claro, que tenian unas almohadas similares que me gustaron mas :-S
Asi que las compre tambien para ver cuales se veian mejor... A fin de cuentas decidi usar las que compre en Target... Y John agarro las otras para el sillon que esta en el sotano :-) Ganar-ganar!!!

Decorating with Plants
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

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!!!

More Decoration Items
I've been eyeing this picture frame arrangement for a while, but I was waiting until it was on sale ;-) It's only $10 less than normal, but when I also saw that the candle holder that I also like was also on sale ($40 less than normal), I knew I had to take advantage of it... before it's sold out or something, like it has happened to other things I've taken too long to buy in the past :-(
Can't wait to get them here and see them in person!!!

Ya quiero que lleguen para verlos en persona!!!
