Odds and ends

We rented a movie last night that I HAVE to tell everyone about. Move over "When Harry Met Sally" and "An American President" I have a new all time favorite movie! The name of it is "Fireproof" and I cannot say enough good things about this movie except that you HAVE to see it and if you need to use the bathroom, pause it and come back. Don't even miss a minute! I had heard extraordinary reviews on it, but never really imagined that it could live up to them. Well, it did and more. Everyone should see this movie, but if you are married, you can't afford not to. So, run, don't walk to your local store (skip the rental and just buy it......you'll want to anyway) and get this movie.

This is my SUPERCOOL new soap dispenser for the kitchen. I just found a wine bottle that was the right size with a label that I really liked ( this wine is called "the 7 deadly Zins" and in lighter letters that you can't see in this picture, it lists the 7 deadly sins.....hilarious) and put in a pourer that you can find in any barwear section.
Instructions:
Drink wine
rinse bottle
put in soap
put pourer in the top
Super simple, super cool and really pretty





I recovered the diningroom, kitchen and familyroom chairs (the two at the two desks) I love this fabric, and am very happy with the way they turned out.











Did you wonder why there where SO many of these beachcomber hats in the bathroom? I ordered them from Oriental Trading Co and they had to be ordered by the dozen. I left 3 out because this is just too funny! They wear these around the house singing "Welcome to Hawaii. Welcome to Hawaii" doing the hula.

Yeah, I know the post started with this paragraph, but I wanted to make sure that you read it, whether you came in on the beginning or the end.

I need to be here!! I need my chairs recovered in that fabric! So where did you get it?

Also, I need that soap dispenser!! Is it a normal wine bottle or a special size one? I have 3 bottles sitting on my counter, so I am off to finish one off! :)
