Lately I've found myself loving to take on projects and make cool stuff. I'm also in the process (still) of redecorating my room. I needed a night stand like a CEO needs a drink on Friday afternoon. That was probably a bad reference but whatever, you get it. So instead of trying to find one to match the wood color of my shelving unit, I decided to look for a thrifted night stand and repaint it. My mom found this little gem in a store that sells liquidated furniture for about $55. It took me a while to decide on a paint color but the one I committed to is called Pumpkin Spice. Yummy huh? I got the knobs half off at Hobby Lobby for about 5 bones. Three coats of paint and a couple days later, and I have a new friend in my room.
So there's that. I'm pretty proud of it. Now on to the search for a lamp...
One more tid bit for today...I got a bunch of coupons (thanks a ton, CVS) and an employee discount so that I could practically get this eye liner for free. It's Maybelline Eye Studio Gel Liner and retails for about $11. I bought it in Blackest Black and let me tell you about how much I love it. Well, I love it a lot. It goes on really smoothly and doesn't smear. Oh it's wonderful. Get it.
It's definitely different than the liquid eye liner I purchased a few weeks ago because it comes in a little pot but I like it a lot better. Easier application and looks very smooth. Ugh I just can't stop babbling about how awesome it is.
PS. It's also available in other colors like Brown and Charcoal.
PPS. School starts on Monday. On to the search for a cool first day outfit. Wish me luck.
