Heart Paper Quilling & Cut Out Hearts

Wednesday, February 2nd, 2011

I saw another blogger do paper quilling and made a heart shape. This project looked like fun so I thought I’d give it a try since I never decorate for Valentine’s Day. Sorry I didn’t take pictures as I made mine but you can find instructions here.

I tried it out in different places in the house. I even put it up above the fireplace on the wall by sticking tape on the back of the frame. Tyler rolled his eyes at me for doing this because we both knew it wasn’t going to stay on the wall for very long. I guess I just wanted to see if it would by a miracle and unfortunately it fell down a few hours later.

I love how it looks right next to our favorite wedding photo that was taken by our friend, Jason. So after it fell, I moved it back to the white dresser by the living room/dining room. I didn’t want to put a nail in the wall when it’s only going to stay up for a few weeks.

Also I had too much fun cutting out hearts while watching TV the other night. We bought our coffee table (Expedit) at IKEA a few months ago and it has a glass top so I scattered the hearts around and put the glass top back on.

Okay, I think I have enough hearts in the house for the month of LOVE! :)

I am in love with this!! It’s the perfect theme and colors for my mood lately since March rolled in. I’m a sucker for anything that has polka dots!

I’ve been Twittering a lot. If you don’t have Twitter, I suggest you sign up! and follow me @luxechandelier.

Richard, a deaf mutual friend, and I plan on going to the Biggest Loser casting call on Saturday. The website says not to show up more than 3 hours before casting call but I don’t care I’m still going there bright & early and sit in my car if I have to just to make sure we’re the first few in line. So on Saturday – I’ll be Twittering all day while I’m there.

It’s been a while since I’ve been in Arizona in March. I was away at RIT for the past 5 years and now I get to experience the nice weather we’ve been having. Today was just perfect to the point when I walked out of the office it didn’t even feel like I was outside.

The other night Tyler and I watched “Friday Night Lights” and I loved the song. . .

I know a girl who thinks of ghosts
She’ll make ya breakfast
She’ll make ya toast
She don’t use butter
She don’t use cheese
She don’t use jelly
Or any of these
She uses vaseline
Vaseline

The Rahul Treatment Plan

I followed the Rahul Treatment Plan today and it kind of didn’t work.

Every time Rahul (don’t you love this picture of him?) was feeling down he would go shopping to make himself feel better. Anyways, today I wasn’t feeling like my usual self so I thought I’d follow the Rahul Treatment Plan with Tyler this evening.

We went to La Fitness first to check out their gym and see how much it is monthly and we weren’t pleased with their gym, it’s small and overcrowded. We then went tanning and I spent 12 minutes in heaven. I work inside all day in an air conditioned building so I don’t get to feel the sun’s rays often anymore.

After that we went to Bed Bath & Beyond and debated for a good few minutes on which mattress pad and fitted sheets to purchase. I’d say the Rahul Treatment Plan wasn’t that successful on us since we kind of felt guilty for buying a mattress pad & fitted sheets.

Hopefully tomorrow morning after I wake up I can say that the Rahul Treatment Plan worked out well! The only problem I may have is I’ll be too comfortable in bed to wake up for work.
