spring is in 'da house

Literally.  I want to share with you my 100 kroner ($20) makeover of our dining table.  Note I did not say dining ROOM table, pfft.  

Ain't she cute?!  It's my happy easter slash happy spring table.  We have this 10 kroner store (like a dollar store only it's more like the 2 dollar store) which inspried the look!

100 kroner breaks down like this:

Placemates 4 x 10kr = 40 kr
Easter Egg Decorations (6 in a bundle) = 10 kr
Colorful napkins = 10 kr
Pink tea-light candle holders 2 for 10 kr = 10 kr
Tulips (from Netto) 2 bundles for 30 kr = 30 kr 

We had the blue candle holders and all the flatware.  Hooray for being bored and not spending TOO much money while hubby is away flying.

Realized I never showed you our new couch in the house?  Here she is!

Don't mind some of the crooked pictures on the wall, that is a nearly daily battle of mine.  We still desperately need something for the wall behind the couch but really just hoping we'll move before I spend more time on redecorating our little house?

Note the blanket.  I have been spending a lot of time lately writing about Christian's grandmother, I can't leave out my grandmother!  She knitted this afgan for me several years ago and it's my favorite snuggle on the couch.  I feel like I shouldn't use it as much as I do but I can't help it - so comfy and warm!

She made every square different, it's so impressive and heartfelt!  I reckon it took her a whole summer to make it.  She told me to put it in my 'chest' but I don't have one of those and I think it looks better out on my couch!  Life is too short?  Hope you don't mind grandma!  

Happy spring!  Easter is almost here!
