Paper Bag Scrapbooks by Love 3 Boutique

I have an addiction and it's bad, and if you know anything about scrapbooking...it's not cheap either.  It drives my husband crazy.  But I just can't help the insane LOVE that I have for it.  So, I have started to sell them.  It's good because it never feels like I'm really working when I making them, just doing something that I love.  So, here are a few of my most recent sells.

"My New Philosophy"

Faith singing "My New Philosophy" from You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown. She totally cracks me up!

Decorating Our Bedroom

     So...for what seems like forever, I have been wanting to decorate our apartment.  It seems like a hodge podge of random stuff and not in the good way.  Now, I am totally an eclectic decorator, so randomness is kind of my thing.  But, this is pretty much stuff that we've had since we first moved away from home.  So, I started with our bedroom and while it's still not complete, it's getting close!
     Okay so first I'm going to show you what it currently looks like, then below I'm going to provide you with links and photos of what furniture I used.

 

My AMAZINGLY talented and FABULOUS friend Sarah Grace painted this AWESOME photo as mine and Trey's wedding gift!!!  It's 4ft. wide and 3ft. tall and seriously the most AWESOME thing EVER!!!!

 

This is the photo that she used as her inspiration for the painting.  Just to give you an idea of how amazing she really is!

 

 

 

So what do you think so far?  I'm so excited and can't wait to finish our bedroom completely!!!

Ikea Hopen Bed Frame Full $149.00 (Unfortunately our apartment bedrooms are frickin' tiny and won't fit anything larger comfortably)

 

Target Storage Ottoman on sale for $16.  We bought two for our nightstands.

 

Bed Bath & Beyond Windsor Window Panels in Plum clearanced  at $19.99 per 84" panel.

 

I spent $9.99 on each of the trays that sit on the storage ottomans.  I bought them at Marshall's and was just lucky enough to find 2 that were the same.  YAY!  

Well...I can't wait to do and show you more but until then, I hope y'all have a very Happy Day!!!

Adorable Embellished Onsies!

I don't have any little ones, but I just love frilly stuff for little girls.  I was never "that" girl though, growing up I hated wearing dresses and frilly stuff...but I pray that one day I have a little girl to dress up!
So the hubby and I were iced in all week...literally.  So, I tried to make use of my time since I couldn't go anywhere.  I had cabin fever and was going to drive Trey (my husband) absolutely insane if I didn't do something.  So I pulled out some Circo onsies that I had bought on clearance at Target and decided to embellish them with some left over fabric that I had put away.  I'm gonna have to do some more because I absolutely LOVE the way that they turned out!  So, what do you think?

Headbands for the Little Ones

I love baby stuff!  I can't wait to have a little girl to dress up in tutus and GIANT bows!  I frickin' love it!

Welcome!!!

Welcome to Love 3 Boutique!  As you dive into my imagination, feel free to look around.  But don't get lost because I'm not sure what's in here...I'm still missing a purple lamp.  I hope that when inspiration strikes me, that you'll be able to feel the aftershock.  I'm in the midst of starting my own company, which is currently here on Etsy.com.  It's been a long time dream of mine and this year I made it my New Year's resolution.  I also have a personal blog which you can also visit called The Lil' Acorn.  I hope that you enjoy the madness that is me, and feel free to ask me anything especially regarding anything DIY!  I'll start you off with a quote from another Fabulous Blonde!  Have a great day!

A Lil' Photography

I took some Senior photos for Alex yesterday.  Here's a look at how they turned out.  I love them!

I have also just realized that I never posted any photos of some photos that I took in late November.  My Aunt asked me to take the photos for her Christmas cards.  This is how they turned out:
