The top is reclaimed barn wood and the legs are old 2 by 4s that Chris took out of the wall upstairs when we was re-studding Kennedy’s closet.. I’m not quite done decorating it yet, but I’m sharing it anyway.

Luckily this time I had this cute little apple garland idea in my back pocket!.I really think this turned out super cute.

Just make sure the steam on your iron is OFF!.

So that’s how we’re trying to make back to school a little more FUN!.I will find it a home eventually..

I even found 2 more blue and white vases for my “collection”.Does 4 vases plus a waving cat count as a collection?

Well, regardless, they bring me joy, so I made them mine!.So that was my haul.
