Hey guys, it’s Jaima from Ring Around the Rosies.

Special thanks to Bonnie for asking me to guest post again! Isn’t she amazing?!?

I wanted to share with you a post I originally posted here. I still love this just as much as I did in the original post. I have tweaked the decorations a bit, but I’m really loving how simple they are, but what a profound statement they make. I have definitely purged a lot of my other decorations and plan to use these as my main focus for all seasons!

*original post*

I have been asking Andrew to make these for months for me, and finally, he did!!! He’s pretty amazing! I hope to have a tutorial for you up soon!

I had other pictures hanging here before. I use to have a thing for bird houses. And country blue gingham. I still like birdhouses, but my OCD tendencies of everything having to have a theme is finally diminishing. At least a little.

told you the before was bad!

The sewing machine & orders right on the kitchen table don't help this picture one bit! But aren't the kids cute!

Again, sorry the pictures are less than par. I have a new camera coming! But aren’t the shelves awesome?!? I’m still tweaking the decorations, but I seriously get giddy every time I walk past them

I made this 3d pumpkin using scrapbook paper and a clip art pumpkin I found online. After I removed the glass and painted the frame black I had teeny wooden dowels that I hot-glued to the back and then to the paper! Love it! I was wanting to cut a styrofoam pumpkin in half and glue it to the paper, but I didn’t have one the right color orange. OCD, I tell ya.

LOVELOVELOVE it!

It’s so bright and cheery! My plan is to purge a lot of my other decorations and use these shelves as my main focus. It’s one of the ways I’m decluttering!
