Welcome to this week's edition of what's in my shopping cart. Starting of this week is the 4x4 round Jute Rug. Currently waiting on delivery. I'm hoping to use it in my entryway or maybe find a home for it somewhere else. I really love this bookcase from the Pillowfort collection. It's a great accessory for any play room and easily accessible for young ones. This sofa from one of my favorite stores is everything. It's comfortable and has a deep seat. It comes in several sizes ... READ MORE »

IKEA Toddler Kitchen Hack
My daughter had been asking for kitchen for the longest time. We got rid of the play kitchen her siblings used because it had seen better days. I really like the Pottery Barn kitchens but didn’t really want to break the bank. I figured she’d probably use it for about 2 years max.

There are tons of ... READ MORE »
