Decorating Deals: Hobby Lobby

I have been hearing about Hobby Lobby (Hob Lob) forever. I have even driven by it many times. But have I gone inside? Nope. But that is changing this week (finally!). I am taking THIS 40% off coupon and I am going to make this cutesy plant thingy that I saw on Thrifty Decor Chick. I [heart] her. Super cute stuff, and it's cheap! Just wait a few more days until she starts decorating for her favorite season, fall. You are sure to find some great inspiration! If mine turns out decent I will show you a pic. Now go check out Thrifty Decor Chick and I'll warn you now, you'll be glued to the computer for quite a few hours (maybe even days).

Time to get Organized

The lazy days of summer are over for most of us. I have loved every minute with my kiddos sleeping in, swimming,  visiting family, playing, and staying up late. On the same note, I am ready for a routine and ready to re-organize.

Gabriela Walker Photography

Treasure Valley peeps: If you need a photographer you have to visit Gaby Walker. She. Is. Amazing. I love her contemporary-artsy style. She kept my baby asleep the whole shoot with her magic touch and managed to get some great pictures of my daughter who is going through a cheesy smile phase.

Included in her photo sessions is a CD with the pics including editing of your 15 or so favorite so you can print however many you want. She also gives you a signed release with the CD so you can go to the store and not have any problems. If you need engagement pics, family pics, or just pics of the kiddos give Gaby a call at 860-1981. She is very popular so plan ahead. Tell her Idaho Deal Divas sent you. Since you get a CD you could easily use your photos for Christmas cards. I know you won't be disappointed. You can see some of the photos from our session with here HERE.

She's on Facebook too! Search: Gabriela Walker Photography or click HERE.
