She-Devil likes Owl Really!

Wondering what the heck the title of this post means??? Read on...

Before I met Andy, I went to a Nashville Rollergirls bout but had no idea what was going on and was mainly there to people watch. Since I've met Andy, I have hardly missed a bout!

He DJs the bouts and is friends with the whole league and is very involved with them - he travels to the out of town games and everything. I have loved getting to know the rollergirls and have gotten to know She-Devil because we work in the same industry for our day jobs and we go to the same church.

Her real name is Elizabeth and she really wanted to come shop at the OMG Urban Flea Market a week and a half ago but she was out of town so, we set up a time for her to come over and we trekked upstairs where all my inventory is and went through each rubbermaid tub one by one! She found SO many great items including a really awesome green travel bag that's perfect for toting a laptop, a few cake stands I made for the wedding, a button ring I made, a record, and much more. Here she is with 2 of the cake stands!

She even texted me photos from a surprise party she threw last night- here are the cake stands in action!
(yum!)

And here's how we used this same cake stand at our wedding reception!

Here it is!

I am so excited for Andy! He has wanted a jukebox since he was a little kid! I found this on craigslist today and it was SO incredibly cheap compared to what other juke boxes sell for! It needs a little bit of work but it totally plays 45s and it came with GREAT songs! When they brought it in the house, I got to punch the first numbers and I chose "Stepping Stone" by the Monkees - I love me some Monkees!! I can't wait until it's working perfectly and we get some external speakers for it so it sounds even better - we are even thinking of getting outdoor speakers for the deck!




The newest addition to our household...

You'll never believe what Andy is buying tonight!

Drumroll please....

That's right... a jukebox from 1977!

I have the coolest husband in the world. :)

Visit Owl Really in person!



Beginning June 4, Owl Really will have a space at the Tennessee Antique Mall! It has always been one of my favorite antique malls (I have found so many GREAT things there!) and the owners are a super sweet older couple. I signed the contract on Saturday and will spend all day Saturday, June 4, getting it set up. I love staging items and displaying things, so I'm really excited to get in and start doing that! Stay tuned for more information and photos of the booth!

wedding photo slideshow

it's true, i'm obsessed with our wedding photos. it was such a beautiful day in so many ways!

here's our photo slideshow... :)

to blogger or not to blogger?

i've been using tumblr and it's SO easy but all the "legitimate" bloggers use blogspot or wordpress and NOT tumblr... so i'm wondering if i should make the switch. tumblr is just soooo easy for a lazy blogger like myself. :) we'll see what happens!
