eye spy with my little eye ...


... a new accessory in our bedroom ...


This was, without a doubt, the cheapest, easiest accent I've ever added to a room. I was crafting with HH last week when I discovered a piece of scrapbook paper that I'd forgotten about. "Wow," I pointed out to her, "this paper is pretty much the exact colours of our bedroom." 

Et voila:


As much of a scrapbooking nerd as I am, I actually had an extra 12x12 clip frame tucked away among my supplies, which only cost about $5 at Walmart anyway. 

Remember this nifty trick next time you're perusing the paper aisle.
