Wish List 2012

Photobucket

Well, not really a wish list, but more like things I'm LOVING right now that are available to buy.  I have my non-monetary wish list going like "magically lose 10 pounds" and "magically cure cancer" and "magically have $20,000 show up in my bank account," but these things are actually available for purchase.

We'll start off with fun vinyl:

Kitchen Aid Vinyl Decals available for purchase at The House of Smiths for only $12.00.  My mixer is gray so I believe I would love the teal scallops.  Why does little stuff like this make me happy?  I don't know - it just does.  Of course The House of Smith's is chuck-full of cute vinyl lettering for all sorts of projects.  It's vinyl heaven over there.

These Pajama Pants from Aerie.  They're about $25.00 and they're on my list for my husband.  They're adorable, that's why.  I'm more of an "old yoga pants and old t-shirt" kind of girl for pajamas, but these - I love.

I have been out of perfume for about 2 years.  Why?  Because the two perfumes I loved have been discontinued.  Both are available on Ebay, but of course at escalated prices and because I can't justify it, I'll just have to deal with it, won't I?  But this smells wonderful.

This beautiful dresser from ZGallerie.  It's $999.00.  I didn't say this was a realistic wish list!  Our bedroom dresser is falling apart.  It's from Ikea.  I think that should explain the falling apart.  My husband had it for about a year before we got married.  The drawers are broken, the edges are scuffed from moving it twice - it's seen it's last days.  My husband and I disagree on furniture.  I like the black and white, and he wants rich mahogany colors.  We'll see when it's finally that time to replace.  But this is GORGEOUS!

Yes I realize you just said, "Duh," that is unless you already have one.  Why the mini?  Less cumbersome.  Really,  I'd rather just win one, but the likelihood of that happening is pretty low.  But I can always dream, right?  At my husband's job, he wins a few of them a year through different venues but he can't keep them, he has to send them to corporate.  Not cool.

Mine are just about done and it's that time to replace them.  As much as I love receiving presents like stuff for the house, things to cook and clean with and work out stuff as gifts, I really need them.  And I currently have Free's now and I like them so we'll keep the style going.

My current wallet was $12.00 from Target. The one before it was $20.00 and I had it for about 3 years - and when you know the kind of beating it takes from all the accessories in my purse, you know that's a long time for a wallet.  This of course, is another unrealistic want, but I think it's cute.

With a price tag that makes me say, "Hah!  You're joking, right?" clearly, this is an unrealistic want...but isn't it so pretty?!  And look - it's not an Ikea bed which sits so close to the floor, you might as well just set the box spring on the ground and do without the bed frame.  (My husband bought it while we were just dating.  If I had said, "I'm not a fan" at the time, I would have sounded like a psycho adding myself to his life like that.  We were engaged about a month later and I still sleep in a dude bed.)

Well that's all for right this minute.




In an unrelated note:  This is the view from my back door

And it's still coming...

While this is not fun to drive in, it's finally looking like Christmas around here!
