So, our favorites for Wednesday...





Beth's fav is this adorable old sled with wreath on it.  This would be great by a front door or really anywhere in a home.  I secretly think Beth is wishing for tons of snow so she can go sledding.....
We have several old sleds and some old skis which would be a great addition to winter decor.  Once they're gone....they're gone.








My favorite is.....


These adorable Christmas pillows.  I really do love pillows because it's such an easy way to change up the house for seasons.  So, we have a couple different Christmas pillows which I know will fly out of the store so I may need to snatch some up! 

Visit Livin' the Dream this weekend Friday 10-8, Saturday 10-6 and Sunday 12-5.

Favorite Things Giveaway

Oh I am feeling so Oprah!  Along with sharing our favorite things we are going to do a giveaway.  AHHHHH! (I can hear the crowd screaming!)  Go to our facebook page www.facebook.com/2momslivinthedream and on the middle right hand side write a recommendation to your friends (under Recommendations from friends) and we will enter you to win a $20 gift certificate good for this sale.  We will draw Thursday so do it NOW!

So we got a huge shipment today of some really fun things so it was really hard to pick what to post as our favorites.  It is a really good thing we have a few more days or our post would be 10 pages long! So today's favorites are...

I chose something we already had only because I have grown a bit attached.  I can't guarantee these adorable deer will make it to opening Friday.  I may break down and adopt them.  They have a glowy, glittery sheen to them that make them majestic...LOVE!


Beth's favorite is a new item we received today.  I am pretty sure it was love at first sight.  When Beth opens boxes and she gasps I usually know it's gonna be good.  This clock got a really big gasp!  This mirror is really cool because it is metal and a great size and would go so many places! 


Hurry in Friday morning because once they're gone...they're gone.  We have one of a kind items!

My Favorite Things

Okay, so I realize I am no Oprah Winfrey. However, I did love Oprah's favorite things show and used to daydream of being on the show.  I truly miss her favorite things show....sad but true.  So in honor of Oprah, we are going to be posting a few of our favorite things in the store this week.  4 days is not enough to tell all of our favorite things, but it will give you a taste of what is behind our door waiting for you this Friday.
So, here goes...
My favorite thing today is this adorable ring. It is a stretchy band ring. I have always loved the look of pearls but love them with a modern twist.  It would be so fun with anything from jeans to a gorgeous black dress.  Heck, I would probably wear it with yoga pants, but only because that is what I wear most of the time.  It will retail at $10 at Livin' the Dream.  What an awesome gift!

Now, Beth's favorite.....
We have some adorable Christmas ornaments that it was hard to pick just one.  We have everything from ceiling tile ornaments to ice skates to giant snowflakes.  All of them are unique and fun and would make a great addition to your holiday decorating.
Come and check out our Christmas assortment of small trees, wreaths, ornaments, pillows and fun box signs.

We are open soon...
Friday, December 2nd 10-8

See you this weekend!

Christmas is coming to Livin' the Dream




Since the first flakes have started to fly we figured it was ok to break out the Christmas decorations at the store.  Things are shaping up nicely and we couldn't be more excited!    Here is a little look at what will greet you when you stop in next time.  Since we sold out of nearly everything last time, almost everything is new.  We have clocks, frames, pillows, cards, magnets, teacher gifts, plenty of furniture and Christmas items as well as lots of other unique finds. 

We also have many more of  the box signs that flew out the door last time.  They come in both Christmas and non-Christmas sayings.  My personal favorite this time around has got to be this one.  If the saying holds true, we are good moms with super happy kids.  After all, who has time to clean floors when there is furniture to paint!
We are off to market again this weekend and can't wait to see what new things we will find.   Enjoy the rest of your week and we hope to see you in December!

We're getting there!

Are we ready to do it again?  ABSOLUTELY!!  We have been collecting, sanding, painting, staining, moving, arranging and rearranging, but things are coming together nicely. We have most of our big pieces done and are starting to focus on the smaller details.



Here is an early peek at inside the store.  This is a dresser we have had in storage for quite a while. (We couldn't decide who was going to get to keep it, but couldn't possibly think about parting with it!) It is the most beautiful curved front piece with nearly perfect carvings on either side and a great scroll detail on the bottom.   We have decided that it isn't doing anyone any good sitting in storage so we finally brought it to the store.  We can't wait to see who will become the lucky owner...that is if one of us doesn't end up sneaking it back home!

Here is one more picture for you.  This dresser was one that I had my husband pick up for me out by the lakes.  When he got home and I finally got to see it in person I was a little disappointed.  It just didn't look like I thought it was going to so it sat in the garage for a little longer than either one of us would have liked, but I finally found my inspiration and it turned out great!  This baby got some new trim, wood accents and numerous coats of paint.  I did have to call my dad so he could guide me through turning on the saw, but after that it was smooth sailing.  The best news is, I still have all my fingers.  I am still on the hunt for perfect knobs, but it is truly shaping up!  I hope you like it as much as I do!

See you in a few short weeks.
