In the late 2000s I kept a personal mom blog called Nest Bliss. I reviewed books, wrote about the house and the girls, and was even in the Wall Street Journal. These posts are from then: light, young, a mom in her late twenties. I have edited them to stand on their own.
First, thanks to everyone for all the nice comments and emails about last night's post . Tonight I had homemade beef stew, James Taylor vinyl, and Slatkin for BBW Margarita Candles for dinner ;) I didn't think Ava would notice but she said the candles were 'waving' and that I should all 'dance and sing to song, dance, dance' when I turned on the record player.
After dinner I danced in the living room and played face up memory 10 times. But it did feel special and even Joseph thought it was really nice.
On to tonight's post! When I was in Pottery Barn Kids last I noticed that they sell separate designer glass and ceramic knobs so you can 'upgrade' their furniture.
This seems funny considering you are buying new, pricey furniture from them and it should come with any knob set you want! Still it is a really good idea and I have done this to thrift store antiques I painted several times.
I also had all glass knobs in the kitchen before I re-did it. However, I have a great 'secret' source for glass and ceramic knobs that are cheap - especially considering a glass pottery barn knob is $10!
