Shutterfly Photo Story Books

We all know and love Shutterfly.  For me, mainly because they have coupons on everything you

could imagine, just rotating every few weeks - I never pay full price for anything!  Which is good, because I used Shutterfly to do my wedding album for Christmas gifts in 2012.  Without a coupon, each one of those babies would have been $120 (it was a pretty long album)!  I ended up ordering 4 of them for $60 each... which isn't pennies, but SO WORTH IT.  It looks so professional, and was really easy to create.  I was pretty picky, and added a lot of text to my album, so it took me at least a good 12 hours or so total to put together. But if you're in a hurry, it can build an album for you.  I like the Photo Story Books because of the cute graphics and specific backgrounds to your type of album!  I need another life event to happen because I want to make another one of these.  Maybe I'll do one in memory of our first home together.... is that a little crazy?  Yeah. A little.

Matching Velvet Space-Saving Hangers

I've been lusting after closets with matching wooden hangers, so I settled for the next best thing I could afford on my budget--Velvet Hangers in a color that closely resembles unstained natural wood. Now that I have these space-saving hangers, I can never go back to my mis-matched, clunky plastic hangers. Look at how streamlined the new hangers on the left look compared to my old hangers on the right! They make my closet look so much more organized, but, unfortunately, buying these hangers in mass quantities made me realize just how much clothing I have... spurring my decision to shop more carefully and be more discerning in general about the clothes I keep in my wardrobe. 

Happy Friday!
