    I don't think I've watched The Real World since.. New Orleans maybe..
  • Options
    Aw, New Orleans was the first season I really watched, but my mom didn't let me watch MTV before that.

    I've watched almost all of the seasons since NO. It's one of the only shows I still watch on MTV.
  • Options
    Jess, that was the last season I actually watched. God I'm old.

    Mare is good, thanks for asking.  She's tough as nails.  I just need to keep soaking and treating the wound for a few more days.

    All righty.  I'm out for the night.  G'night all!

    Random: Someone on my FB just posted a picture of a wreath made of flip-flops. I don't think I like that idea.

    I mean, I guess nothing really says, "Welcome to my home" like a bunch of sandals?

    Jess, that sounds really pointless and kind of tacky. Unless it's on the door so people can take them to use instead of shoes in the house.

    Haha!

    "Hey, thanks for inviting me over so I can dismantle the decor!"

    I'm just not seeing the appeal with that idea.
  • Options
    I think that Pinterest should come with a disclaimer like this:

    "Some people say, 'Just because they make it in your size, it doesn't mean you should wear it.' the same is true with Pinterest. Just because you saw it on Pinterest, doesn't mean it's cute."

    Or something to that effect.

    At least they aren't dirty flip flops?

    My aunt would love it though, she's obsessed with flipflops.

    Sara, that's true. At least they weren't dirty.

    I'm all about some cute wreaths, but that one, IMO, isn't a cute idea, no matter how cute the flip flops are.

    Yeah, I don't like the idea of a flip flop wreath either. 

    I want to try and make a cute wreath this year for the holidays.

    <div>Me too! I have one holiday wreath, but I'd like a halloween type wreath. Maybe a fall themed one.</div>

    I think we're decorating our house as an insane assylum for Halloween this year. I should make a wreath to go with that. Restraints wreath?

    I'm totally google imaging "Wreath pinterest" because I'm too stupid for the Pinterest search function.

    I really want to keep a wreath on a door throughout the year since we have no landscaping in our yard.

    <div>That sounds so fun. There's a really small town that neighbors mine and they turn their entire downtown into a horror house. The bank turns into a horror doctor's office. It's SO fucking fun. The townspeople all dress up and scare people. It's one of my favorite things to go to every year.</div>

    Erin, that sounds so awesome!

    I really like this, but I'd probably make the flowers a little less full.
  • Options
    Jess, that's so pretty! I want one.

    As if I haven't been spending money like I have it lately, I'm really tempted to go out and get supplies for something like that.

    Oooh, maybe with purple flowers...I love purple. And that would be fallish, so I could leave it up for a while. :)
  • Options
    Fall Floral items are on sale for 40% this week at Hobby Lobby, which includes wreaths (hopfeully plain ones) and regular florals are 50% off.

    I'm taking this as a sign that I need to go to Hobby Lobby.
  • Options
    Purple would be really pretty! You could even attach the flowers with wire and no glue and then change out the colors for each season. Or have a main color and just change the accent?

    I flippin love Hobby Lobby. I don't think there is one close to me out here though. I should check.

  • Options
    In the spring I could do purple with the green that's pictured above, and then in the fall do the purple with a fallish orange maybe?

    I'm pretty sure Hobby Lobby is getting money from me tomorrow.
  • Options
    I love purple and orange together

    I think the real reason why I'm really wanting to make one is because I finally started hanging things up in the house this evening, and it's starting to feel more home-y.

    Now I just need someone to unpack everything and organize so that I can just decorate.
