Happy New Year! Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and a relaxing weekend. Are you sticking to any resolutions you’ve made?
I’m not one for New Year’s resolutions or reflections, but there is one tradition (if you can call it that) that I keep with myself every year – entering the HGTV Dream Home contest everyday from the beginning of the New Year until it ends in February. I always thought the contest began on January 1st, but I see this year it started on the 29th. (Oops, maybe being late to the contest can be part of my little tradition!)
My mom got me started on this about five years ago. It’s fun to think about what you would change about the dream home and if you would keep it or sell it, or what. So, while I should be going to the gym with the rest of the world, I’m going to exercise my stellar abilities at filling out the entry form instead!
What about you? Are there any unique, silly, or simple resolutions, traditions, etc that you have for the New Year?

Happy Friday! This week flew by for me – was it the same kind of week for you?
Hope you have a wonderful weekend ahead – here’s my weekly six picks from this week! Feel free to share some of yours!
Weekly Six:
1) I’m absolutely positively obsessed with this throw. Why does it have to be so pricey?!
2) Loving this 2011 in Review of Designer Desktops from Design Milk. Which is your fave?
3) I haven’t yet disclosed to you about my strong desire to get engaged (It’s been 4.5 years, it’s time!). But when I saw these erasers, I knew I needed them.
4) You can never go wrong with some flashy furniture.
5) This Gingersnap Milkshake is the perfect holiday dessert! (Plus, it can be made gluten- and dairy-free)
6) How great is the concept of Exploded Flowers? I want one of these in my kitchen!
See you on Monday!

Happy Friday!! How are you spending the first lovely weekend of November? Will it be even lovelier due to the hour we’ll gain from Daylight Savings Time?
Here are this week’s Weekly Six links to check out, as collaged above!
1) Wouldn’t this Cookies and Cream Oreo Bark be a great dessert item to bring to parties this holiday season?
2) I keep going back to check out these colorful Bfrend bracelets – they’ll make great gifts! (For others and for myself!)
3) The lights lining the floor and going up the wall to the ceiling in this image are so festive – I definitely need to do something like this in my home for the holidays!
4) Here’s another fun thing to do with Christmas lights – poke them through canvas for a bright display.
5) The Holiday Gift Guide by Emily Henderson will not only give you great gift ideas, but also several fun DIYs for gift-giving and decorating.
6) How cool is this Inlamp by Sai Design Studio? Instead of typical lamps that stay on display whether on or off, the Inlamp has its own special cabinet for when not in use.
What fabulous things have you seen this week? We’d love for you to share them!

Happy Friday!
Do you have any fun plans for the weekend? Ladies, if you do – maybe you should consider this adorable 1960s hairdo for whatever fun fiesta or outing you may be attending.
Even though it’s still morning, I saw this mac n’ cheese over at Happiness Is… and I can’t fight the cravings! I might have to make the recipe from Gojee this weekend.
As far as fashion goes, check out this new unique watch from Nooka or these endearing bracelets from Gracelette that donate to the homeless.
If you have a few minutes, check out this beautiful tree house. Would you want to live in one of these? I think I would!
And finally, a fun filing cabinet project to add some fabulousness to your office.

Happy Friday!
If you’re on the East Coast, are you prepping for Hurricane Irene? As I’m located in Northern New Jersey, I’m planing on wearing those fabulous glittered pumps instead of a chronic bitchface this weekend!
I’d also like to whip up a batch of these cereal bars to snack on if the power gets out.
Then I’ll dream about these lovely lamps in my house and throwing a party with fun flotation decor.
What are your plans for the weekend?
