I have started to scan the local thrift shops for budget friendly accents for my kids rooms and was thrilled to come across four pretty milk glass vases at GoodWill. I was able to score all four for a whopping $3.00! I knew that they would look lovely on Beau’s antique dresser.

Acid green and metal accents were what I found at HomeSense yesterday. These pieces would look incredible in a teen boy’s room. The post modern chair has a great shape and is not too heavy or fussy. The infusion of colour creates a fresh and energetic atmosphere.
Fan – Clearance $24.00
Deer Head – $16.99
Chair – $99.99

I found these easy, fast and lovely kid’s decor DIY ideas while scanning some of my favourite blogs and design websites. Are you as blown away as I am? Let the creative juices flow….
How did I not think of this one before? Turn some flash cards into a banner. Cheap, easy, fast and a lot of impact. You can find this clever DIY on House and Home.
These sweet vibrant paper birdhouses remind me of the birdhouses my grandfather used to build and my grandmother would add hand painted embellishments. I think the branch wallpaper adds some imaginative and whimsical detail. You can find the template on Karmuca & Coquino.
How fun is this Lego letter? I found this idea on Boys Germs. Most dollar stores sell letters this size. Pick out some fun logo with the kiddos, pull out your hot glue gun and off you go!

Whoever said girls are easier to potty train never had to potty train my daughter. When it was time to potty train Holden I pretty much put a pair of underwear on him and we were done. Beau on the other hand is a whole different animal. I took an attempt at potty training number 5 last week and it was a disaster. Not only did it seem like Beau was trying to mark her territory all over our house, but she pooped in her underwear twice. I had her on the potty constantly and was trying to be very clear to her about the process. I think my breaking point was when I pulled down her pants and a present dropped right into my hand! I have potty trained 4 puppies in the past and none of them including the accident prone Newfoundland was as difficult as my little princess.
After dropping Holden off at school today I walked home with new found determination and a fresh approach. I decided to make a “potty training chart” for Beau and made one for Holden as well so he wouldn’t feel left out. The chart is colour coded and works on a reward system using stickers. So far, so good! We have had tons of success so far, minus the puddle Beau left in Walmart today!
I would love to hear your potty training stories! Please share!
