My friend Julie put together the most amazing party for her son's first birthday!

A cookie theme complete with custom labels on all the milk bottles,
a gorgeous cake,
{even his smash cake was amazing!}
Now that's what I call cute!

First off I wanted to thank all of you for your comments in regards
to Edie and her home.
I don't know any details at the moment on how we all can help,
but as soon as I hear anything, I'll let you know!
Yesterday my husband and I installed shelving units in our storage shed.
I came across these wood planks that came with the shelving,
but that we were not going to use.
My husband had thrown them in the trash pile.
Of course I rescued them and immediately knew what I was going to make!
I think I am the last one on the face of the planet to make a subway sign but it was a lot of fun! I have 3 more boards so I think I will make more for my etsy shop!
What do you think?I am also thinking about doing other sayings,
like the lyrics to "you are my sunshine" etc.

One of my worst nightmares has happened to one of our blogger friends.
Edie is a customer of mine and a fellow blogger who blogs about renovations, family, and redecorating. Although I don't know her personally, I feel for her loss deeply. My prayers go out to her and her family at this tragic time. A few days before Christmas her house burned to the ground in the middle of the night. Luckily everyone got out safely. I can't imagine what they must be going through. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

I have had several emails from people wondering
where I got my giant salad dressing recipe in my kitchen nook.
{see below}
I got it at Pottery Barn back in 2007.
I had to cut it down to size as it is quite large, measuring 30" x 50"
It is printed on a thin, transparent piece of plastic that adheres to the wall and is easily removable.
I have seen them for sale on eBay,
I have seen them for sale on eBay,and found one here tonight if you are looking.
Not a bad price either.
The other question I get asked a lot is where did I get the numbers for my front door.
I know I have addressed this in the past,
{no pun intended!}
but they came from a company called wonderful graffiti which is no longer in business.
I did however find a seller on etsy that has some very similar ones!
