Who knew I was this exciting?

The guy who ever said shoe racks are no fun is just an idiot.

I don't really know if anyone said that for sure, but if they did it must be a guy.

I got a shoe rack this weekend. I know. I'm over the top in the excitement category, aren't I?

Fa put it together for me. And she helped me set it up in my closet too.

I tried to get pictures but the closet was too dark and no matter how hard I tried, it didn't come out viewable. Sorry.

I frickin' love my new shoe rack. It brings me joy and warmth in my belly.

And what was even more exciting than the shoe rack this weekend?

New silverware.

I know, someone stop me before I go over the edge.

THAT I have pictures of.

Distressed Pewter handle and a gothic detail at the end...

Heaven, I'm in heaven...

Someone catch me before I lose all control.

  9. That's crack open a bottle of wine and talk silver! I love pretty new silverware and the silverware rack is even better. I love seeing new silverware neatly stacked in the slots. About once a month I clean the crumbs out of the rack and feel positively giddy the rest of the day. You are not alone, my friend.

  16. BEAUTIFUL silverware! You knew I'd be all over that one, didn't you?

    That's how I feel every time I bring home new (or old, for that matter) pretties for my house. All the better for functional items!
