Erica decided to rescue this cute little $13 vase from the clearance rack. The pattern and colors weren’t horribly offensive, but she had bigger, brighter and better things in mind. Things that involved a lighting kit and houndstooth! Isn’t it fantastic?
Speaking of houndstooth, I really want to try those Sally Hansen nail polish sticker thingies, have you seen the houndstooth ones? So cool! Anyone tried those yet, or have any idea what I’m talking about, despite my very descriptive description?
Anyway, check out more from Erica on her blog Swoon!

May 4, 2011 at 8:11 PMThe lamp is awesome! As for the nail polish stickers, both my 14 year old daughter and I have tried them. They work really well. I may be a little over the target age range that they were shooting for with this product, however. I looked a little “Jersey Shore” for my taste when wearing them. But they look great on my daughter and they are super easy to use.

May 4, 2011 at 8:42 PMThe “nail polish sticker things” are amazing && (for me at least) they have lasted longer than the box says they will!!

Any time I’d go to tuck my hair behind my ears or push it back, I’d get a strand stuck in there and it drove me crazy!

May 5, 2011 at 2:31 AMBeing the total BAMA girl that I am, I love the houndstooth. I even like the yellow lamp. But, it would be more stunning in crimson:-)
Don’t know about the nail thingies. I’ll ask my junior high students about them.
