random stuff … ♥

Raising up Rubies
here’s a few pretty things i found at Goodwill last week 🙂

my girls have claimed these as their new breakfast dishes ♥
they were $2 per set!

i just couldn’t pass these up … i’m a sucker for anything this pretty teal color
i hung them on a rod i have above my counter with some others i love

if you follow me on Instagram you already saw some of these snapshots
but i’ve been thinking on how i’m so thankful for my kitchen …
sounds silly i know
but i really love my kitchen
and i’m grateful to my husband who listened to all the ideas i had
and fashioned it after my heart’s desire
i especially love the little things …
you know, the things that make it feel like home


since school starts in 2 days
my mind has been on getting back into the swing of things
on all the things i want to accomplish
on the holidays …
 i know, the holidays, but guys … 
so i’m determined to try and get ahead of the game this year
and i really wanted to start in August, so i’m already behind!
i stumbled upon this cute little blog
where she talks about a “September Sort-it”
and she made a list of 30 things she really wanted to get done in the next month
i was motivated to do the same 
but by the time i got to #20 i started to panic
so i stopped there and thought even if i get half of these done
i’ll be happy 🙂

i just listed this in the shop too 🙂
it a cutie pie cloud garland hung from a tiny hanger (heehee 🙂
i’ll be back this week with some more random stuff
♥ much love to you

  5. This is a great idea! I am always making lists. Now, just to get something finally crossed off of them. 🙂 I love those teal cups you found at Goodwill. Exactly the color I want to incorporate into my kitchen!

  8. Jamie-Your things are just darling. That set of dishes you show? I think it came in oatmeal or cereal in the 50's. I remember my Mom had a complete set and I am pretty sure it was a bonus with the product. I haven't seen it in years- very sweet! Have a great day- xo Diana

  19. Jaime, I'm totally IN LOVE with your handwriting! I had to look closely to see if you had used a font or not in your picture. Wow. That's really you, huh? Well, I see that others are loving your dishes and your list, but I'm sayin your beautiful handwriting wins for me! Love your happy blog!

  22. Hi Jaime! Remember when I commented and was drooling over these pretty dishes you found?!?!?! I found the exact same pretty blue/mint flower cups today at my thrift store! They came with the plates too!! 3 cups, 3 plates for a total of $4.50! Score! Love them!!! 🙂 Just thought I would share my excitement with someone who I knew would understand that kind of excitement! 🙂 🙂
