Royalchrome restoration pt3

Good morning everyone. I hope your weekend was nice. Mine was. I finally had my housewarming and I considered it a big success! It was my first party ever and I had a big turnout. More on that tomorrow.

That's why I was MIA last week. I was preparing for the party, that, and I went out dancing 4 nights in a row. Um, yeah....that does not leave much time for blogging.

But now that my party is over, and I'm settled, as in I've put everything away, I'm ready to tell you all about my Royarlchrome progress.

Okay, last Thursday I left work an hour early and traveled to downtown LA (in rush hour) to get the eight cushions I ordered for my two Royalchrome couches. 

Half of the cushions
(not counting the top wedges).

Catalog Sunday

Wow, I prepped to make this post two hours ago and here I am finally getting to it! That's what happens when you are cleaning up after a party (more on that tomorrow). This Sunday I have great fashions from Lane Bryant. 
Enjoy!!

Weekending Cool Colors

It's Friday. Enough said.
I was flipping through some of my phone  photos and 
just compiled a few I took this past week that popped.

I recently got a juicer, so I've been putting any and every veggie in it!
The colors are amazing!

This one is apple, orange, carrot, and ginger.


Apartment Decorating

I've been shopping. Oh, how I've been shopping.
My house warming is coming up at the end of the month, so I've been getting some of the smaller things a home needs to make it just right.
