Welcome to this week’s {nifty thrifty sunday}!
I apologize for falling off the face of the earth this past week.. Things have been a bit crazy around here. Between spending one evening in the emergency room with my hubby (he’s okay now :) ), buying a new (to us) car and the every day craziness of work, I just didn’t get around to preparing any posts.. I hope it will get better this upcoming week. ;)
Thank you so much for stopping by to party with us this week! I can’t wait to see what you have been up to!
Here are some of my favorites from last week’s {nifty thrifty sunday}:

{2} For the Love of Lillian: Old Dresser Vanity

{4} Monsterscircus: DIY Tablet Stand

{6} Something Sweet: Chocolate Cake with Cookie-Crust and Layer of Mousse

Sunday January 20th, 2013 at 12:59 PMOoops I meant congrats with your new car not var ;-) I’m from a small town near Kolding in Jutland, if you where that’s is. We have a lot of snow here, so it’s perfect for some kipferl baking, I haven’t forgot it! Love to follow your blog, it’s so nice to see some german inspiration! Have a wonderful day!
