Mrs. C Does Stuff

We received a "Bless this Home" vinyl wall decal as a housewarming gift and I absolutely loved it.  Vinyl decals are a great decorative touch and easy to install.  Now, as to how easy they are to remove, I am unsure.  However, I do not anticipate having to remove them for a while.  I wanted to find a wall decal for my closet that would be something inspiring.  One of the people I have always admired is Audrey Hepburn.  I love her outlook on life and the class she exuded in both real life and the characters she portrayed on screen.  While searching for inspirational quotes, I came across this quote from her and decided to use it for the wall decal.    This one was purchased from Amazon.com from a vendor called Wheeler3Designs .  There are a few other sellers that have this particular item on the Internet.  Wheeler3Designs got this to me quickly and it arrived just as described.

So, I have come up with an organizational solution to help me prepare clothes for the week.  On the back of my closet, I put five Command adh...

This is the first post in a new series I will feature.  In the Closet Revamp series I will be doing several projects to make my closet more functional.  Once all the projects are complete, I plan to do a reveal of how the finished closet looks. I have never been the type of woman who wanted a vanity at which I could do my makeup and hair.  It just was not something that entered my consciousness, until now.  Lately, I have noticed that while I am doing my hair, especially flat ironing it or setting it on rollers, there is a tinge in my lower back.  Maybe this is because I am standing at the mirror with arms stretched behind my head for an extended period of time, pulling and gliding tools and things throughout my hair.  Perhaps it is a tingling reminder that I could stand to lose a few pounds.  Either way, sitting would be a more comfortable position for me to do my hair. I began searching for a desk to refinish.  I wanted a desk beca...
