Blog Sale!!!!!

Since we are packing up the house and getting ready to move, I thought I might try to sell a few items out of my closet! Most of this stuff really has not hardly been worn at all! I tend to buy some things and then realize later that I don't actually like the way they look on me! I hope that you find something here you like and that fits you or someone you know!

Each item will will cost about $5 extra for shipping! Just FYI!

New Frame Orders!

I wanted to share a few of the newest frames I have made for various people and friends!

From a granddaughter to her grandmother - "Grace & Grams"

For a mom from her kids..."Alyssa, Greg, Charisse"

It's kind of hard to see this in the picture, but it's a Mother's Day frame from a granddaughter to grandmother - "One Day I Will Ask For A Pony..."

As you can see, I have been SUPER busy lately with the packing of the house and the frame orders that are continually pouring in! I am loving it though!

Don't forget about Hilabeans Frames for great and inexpensive teacher and graduation gifts! Also...follow Hilabeans Frames on Facebook!

I will tell you, that I am going to take frame orders through the 15th of May and then will be putting them on hold for a while. We will be in between houses, so I will be packing up the paints until we get moved in! Get your orders in ASAP!!!

Website....

Hey ladies!

I am contemplating setting up an OFFICIAL website for Hilabeans Frames! I have a great friend who is going to help me out with this....but he wanted me to send him some website ideas to spark something for my own. Share with me some of the cute websites that you love! I have drawn a blank and cannot think! I would REALLY appreciate it!!!!

XOXO,

NEW CASA!

Just wanted to share a FEW pictures of our new house with you all! Have I mentioned how excited we are about it?! Keep in mind....all of the stuff in these pictures is the previous owners'! It will look completely different once we move in! The pictures might be a little grainy...there were the ones from the listing website.

The new casa is on about 2 acres and backs up to 60 acres! We have started calling it "The Farm House" since we feel like we will be living the country life now! We know the previous owners very well, they own the 60 acres that our house backs up to. They have told us to treat it ike it is our own land...so we can play and hunt all we want! We are so happy to be out of the city and back to a little bit of a slower pace of life!

Front of the house... picture our new white rocking chairs on that front porch! And yes...the yard will be manicured/mowed and we will be planting lots os bushes and flowers around the house!

Living room... we are really excited about the stained concrete floors! Plus...all of the paint colors (for the most part) are already what we would want...we only have to paint the guest rooms! WHEW!

Kitchen...I am in love with the new kitchen! Love the wine rack AND they have a bunch of big deep drawers for storage! Plus...one thing I really wanted in my next house....a kitchen window!! I am ready to grow some herbs on that windowsill! We will eventually put an island in the middle.

Master Bedroom.... Love the little reading drop lights!

Master Bathroom....althought the pedestal sinks are not very functional, I think they add a little character/charm! We will be replacing them later on...but I think they are very Pottery Barn! Lord knows I need all of the sink storage I can get! I am kind of a product junkie!

I didn't want to put pictures of the guest rooms up yet...they are VERY kiddish and need to be repainted...I will show those later on!

Just wanted to chare a few for now because I am so excited and ready to be there!!!

But don't worry..I have some funny stories/posts coming up about random happenings with the house already! :)

Have a WONDERFULLY wonderful weekend!

XOXO,

Hilary

Rock N' Roll

Okay....I know this is a SUPER random post...but I am in need of some major help!!!

Does anyone know where I can find two white rocking chairs?!!?!

I just don't know where to start! Our second anniversary is on Monday, so Casey and I are celebrating this weekend. We decided that whatever we get eachother for gifts, it should be stuff that we want/need for the new house! Well....we have a cute, larger front porch now and we really wanted to get cute white rocking chairs for it (very southern...i know)...so I thought that would be the perfect gift for him! He actually DOES really want these! Please help me find some! I need all of the help I can get!!!

Thanks so much!!! Happy Thursday!! The weekend is near........

XOXO,

Hilary

Home Sweet Home

By Invitation Only...

You are invited to see the inside of our lovely first home! We have lived here for TWO years exactly and are so sad to sell it! It was the perfect house for us....perfect size, big backyard, empty lot next door, and a big field behind us, which means, no back neighbors! We moved into this house the week after we were married. This house has been with us through so many memoies: job losses, new jobs, three dogs, many visitors, updates/remodeling, etc! We are super sad to leave it behind, but very excited about the new adventure ahead of us. We cannot WAIT to move back home! We got a contract on our house the Sunday before last and made an offer on our new house this past Sunday!

Some had asked for me to post pictures on my blog so that you might be able to see the inside. The lighting was kind of off, so the pictures might not be amazing! I hope you enjoy! (I know...there are quite a few pics!)

The front of the house...

This is our living room...we LOVE our big leather sectional! Notice my handmade curtains!

Casey's office...he painted that desk himself!

The master bedroom...I will miss that cute red wall!

Our upstairs bonus room that we recently converted to a sitting area!

The backside of our living room...I am looking forward to possibly doing a built-in for the TV in our next house.

The kitchen...it's actually a chocolate brown, but sometimes looks a little green-sih...don't mind that! In our new house, the cabinets are stained and I am excited! I do not like the wood colored cabinets.

The guest bedroom - I am thinkong fo re-doing this in the next house. This was Casey's comforter from college...we just really like how comfy it is! I am giong to need some ideas for the next house!

The guest bathroom...this is my favorite room in the whole house!
One side of the dining room - we didn't want a dining table yet, so it's a make-shift reading nook.

The other side of the dining room/reading nook.

Our breakfast area....LOVE my curtains in here! They really dressed this room a lot!

Well...I hope you enjoyed my little home tour! I would love any suggestions or ideas that you might have for me! I will fill you in more in my next post about our new house! We cannot wait to get moved and start over with a new clean slate!

XOXO,

Hilary
