It's a Mad Men NYE

 Well, technically not for us this year but it's a very fun thought to imagine. I feel I've done it all to celebrate the coming of the new year. The only things I've never done, and will never do is head into NYC to watch the ball drop. It's way overcrowded and I have no interest standing in the cold for hours on end. When I think back I really have done every combination possible to ring in the New Year, be it a bar, club, someones house party, stayed in with friends & family or dinner and a comedy show. I've even banged pots and pans many years when that fabulous ball dropped. This year we are staying in by ourselves. 2012 will bring (God willing) many changes for us, and we want to take the chance to be solo this year.

Now if we were to have a fancy Mad Men New Years party, this is some of what it would look like.

Mr B. would adorn these fancy beauties

Our guests would drink from these

We'd tidy spills with these

I would be wearing this sparkly sensation
We'd invite everyone with these
And this would be our coasters for the evening, a bit retro

Beadboard wallpaper oh yea !!!

Oh how I love this, what an easier way to do what I want in our bedroom. And cheaper !! There is one made by Martha Stewart and Wall Doctor. So doing this ! What a great great way to get what you want with out the work and cost.

Lipstick messages

Yesterday was my birthday. Nothing fabulous. At this point of my age, it's just another year older. Nothing monumental, not a new decade, nothing to go crazy about.... But it got me thinking about when my sisters and I were younger, (and anyone else who may have lived here from time to time) my mom would write lipstick messages on our bathroom mirror. Most of the times it would say "Happy Birthday" to us. And if I was having a terrible week , it would be something encouraging like "I love you, have a great day." Well, I definitely miss my lipstick messages. I wish when they were written, we had Facebook or Instagram. What a cool thing to have captured. Here is a picture of what one may have looked like, not ours, but similar.
