TGIPinterest Pin This! Challenge: Pure Awesomeness

by Dumb Mom on February 17, 2012

I have a bunch of awesomeness in my life.

I think that’s evident by the number of times I’ve used the word in this space.

Seriously, I can’t even count.  It’s in the upper hundreds though, just based on a quick search.

So, naturally, when I went to make a Pinterest board of Pure Awesomeness, I had plenty of things to include.

Like this tasty little number I’m sure I’ll never own…

I mean, it’s nearly $600!

With nearly $600 I can buy 8 pairs of these, in different colors and similar styles…

Um, hello color-blocked cuteness!

Or, if for some ludicrous reason I wasn’t interested in acquiring 8 new pairs of gorg spring shoes I could also take the $600 and hook up my house a little. 

Did you guys know that we still don’t have curtains in our house?!

Seriously, 3 years post new window project and they remain bare as a baboon’s bottom.  You could totally peeping Tom me if you wanted to.  Even my bathroom (since I discovered that the “privacy” cover wasn’t really all that private) is hidden behind a bath towel.

It’s hideous.

And I will never invite you or any of your friends to explore my upstairs area because of it.

But, even more than new window coverings, I’d love to get some new barstools.  Like these…

 

to replace the ones The Dudes have nearly reduced to kindling.

And, while I can’t get all three of them for the $600 I’d save by not buying the smokin’-hot-handbag, I could score two of them with that.  And then save up for the third?

Because three barstools is worth $800, right?! 

Or maybe I’ll just buy this one chair…

so I can redo our living-room-turned-dining-room-to-accommodate-the-first-floor-playroom-we-HAD-to-have.  This way I could also save a couple hundred bucks to go out shopping for the cute shoes I want?  I could take a friend and buy her lunch and maybe catch Channing Tatum in The Vow?! 

A Channing Tatum pretty chair, some new sweet kicks, and a girls day out are definitely worth $600.  

Want to see some other items that made my board just because they are straight awesome?!

Of course you do!

Here’s a random sampling…

What awesomeness did you discover this week on Pinterest?!

Link it up below and then get started on next week’s #TGIPinterest Pin This! Challenge: Spring!

Just to warn you, I’m in a mama-needs-new-clothes-with-color-to-ditch-the-gray-winter-ugly-around-here mood so be prepared, mine will be ALL about spring fashion.  But yours can be about whatever Springy-ness floats your boat!

Love those color blocked pumps, although since I officially wore color block styles the first time it was in fashion, back in the early 90′s, I’m not allowed to wear it now ; )
