Saturday!!

 Good morning and happy weekend day!

Last night we got to try a new item from a food truck that gave us free food. Waffles with blue berry sauce and fried chicken. It needed heat! Not much flavor at all, and the waffle was soggy. Too much undercooked breading. Bummer too because I wanted to like this. It looked really pretty! 

Here are the cubes 3, for $29.99 each and I would want 2 for $60. So 6 cubes in all to store hats, etc. 

Here's my new photo wall. Not sure I love it. I wanted to do Black and White, but then ended up printing in color. I forgot to make sure most were landscape! Some photos also didn't turn out, which I planned for and had extra made. Good enough for now. I'll switch out photos as I take more. They were only $2.50 to print through Walmart. A Cheap fix should I print more. 

 We picked up all the materials to build the mud room wall/hooks. Instead of unfinished wood, we got some white primed wood. I most likely will paint the wall white too and then make it looked all finished. We have to figure out the spacing and where to put the hooks. Got a deal on the hooks, $1 each and we needed 32! I took them all with the display! We will turn them straight so they are more like a hook then knob. The sale price was incorrect as they came up for 99 cents each.


The wood, which we purchased 7, 1 x 3 x 8 @ $5.23 each and 1, 1x2x8 @ $3.48 Grand total $77.88 with tax, but we get back $8.17 in rebate money (save 11%)
So after the rebate total project cost = $69.71. Which does not include the nails (we have) or the white paint ( we have). Or the cubes we might install over the wall. Which would add $29 x 2 = $60 to the project. We will see if we need it. I would like to have 6 cubes in white. We determined it would be cheaper to just purchase then to make our own. 
Now to assemble and see if it looks like this!!

Our wall is also flat, but does go around the wall, which I didn't include in the project, but we could purchase one more wood section? Might have to include that too and do it like this around the wall? We just won't go up as high since the hooks are a little too high up on the wall in this photo. 


Today, is just home projects. Doing that wall. Painting upstairs and that's about it! Sunday? Maybe getting rid of those branches in the back yard since it's going to be warmer tomorrow. Today is chilly!! 

We also need to go to the gym this morning and workout! I only went 1 time this week! Yikes!! Although, work was extra busy!
