Our trip to Pier 1

This schoolhouse birdhouse is where our birds go to get their food. Squirrels love to go there too unfortunately so the birdhouse needs to be refilled often.
Wednesday, June 18th, 2008My Vanity
I bought my vanity about 10 years ago online for $199.00. It’s cherry wood and I chose it because of the necklace holder drawer that is on the left side of the vanity. It’s great to hang long chains on so they don’t get tangled.
