Today was a day of all days...for a few reasons.  First, PERFECT weather.  It could not have been any more gorgeous.  Second, my big girls and I went out and partied for the afternoon and hit some of Vegas' hot spots...that would be ahem, Goodwill, the Discount Mall  (which I only just learned about today), and DI of course.  Such good company and I'm telling you these girls are definitely DIYers in training.  First let me just share this little picture with you...

This was taken as we were heading out for our shopping extravaganza.  Are they dressed to kill or what!  I know.  The sunglasses are killin' me too.

We didn't buy the metal thing because I could not for the life of me think of what to do with it (I talked her out of the flower idea).  Maybe I should have, and let Maggie have a go at it.  So metal thing stayed, but plenty came home with us.  Let me share some of my favorites.

A set of 4 bamboo-ish placemats, although I won't be using them as such.

A totally gorgeous frame... you can't tell how big it is in the picture.  Those are all 4x6" openings so it's pretty dang big.  And the frame is so big and chunky. Love love.  Imagine it white with a bit of antiquing and dark wood peaking through.
