My Favorite Things Thursday

I missed it last week, because I was otherwise engaged...but I'm back to join Carolyn for another installment of My Favorite Things Thursday.
I'm so excited to share with you guys my current favorite thing.
I still can't remember how I stumbled across Sherry's blogs HE{ART} and Altered to Perfection but I have enjoyed getting to know her, her beautiful family and seeing all the lovely things she creates.
Recently, she posted some journals that she had custom-made....and I knew I had to have one.
I placed my order thru her Etsy shop, then she emailed me with some questions to get to better know my personality and likes and such.
My favorite colors: turquoise and purple
My favorite Bible verse: Psalm 18:30
My style: Vintage
There were a few other things that I can't recall at the moment.
Regardless, she NAILED it!
She absolutely made it perfectly for ME!  (Guess that's why it's called Altered to Perfection!)  ;)

Wanna see??


Isn't it beautiful?!
(This was taken with my Evo since my camera died, so the pictures it really don't do it justice.)


She put such thought and detail into it.


She even made a pocket on the inside cover and included some cute bookmarks.


I absolutely LOVE it!!  I have written in it every morning since I got it.
I am not a "diary" type person.  I just write down notes from my devotions, prayer requests or just whatever it on my mind/heart at the moment.
It really has been my favorite thing and will continue to be for a very long time!

Go check out Sherry's Etsy shop and maybe she can alter something to perfection just for YOU.

Also, go check out Carolyn and the other ladies' Favorite Things.

These are a few of my favorite things...

Today I am linking up with Carolyn at Silly Happy Sweet for "My Favorite Things Thursday".  I just recently discovered Carolyn's blog and am enjoying it.  She's a sweet and talented lady!  

Can anyone use the phrase "my favorite things" without singing it like Julie Andrews?  I think not.  ;)
Anyways, I wanted to share with you guys a few of my favorite things these week.  
These are my top 5:



Oh, Britney...you are (or used to be) coo-coo for cocoa-puffs...but I LOVE your perfumes!  Curious is my favorite of them all.  I just recently ran out of my perfume, but didn't sweat it since I have my souffle I can use and it works just as good.  It's so smooth, not greasy and smells divine!


I have to admit that I hate washing my face.  I do it every morning in the shower, but any other time I tend to opt out.  That is why cleansing wipes are best.  I can use them to wipe away my make-up before bed and it makes my skin feel great and like my Curious...it smells awesome!


I am new to discovering Laughing Cow, but I quickly became a believer.  They come in little individually wrapped wedges for convenience.  Eaten with pretzels, it is a low-calorie and delicious snack!  Yum!


How can you not love a pink rhinestone tape dispenser?  The kids got it for me for Christmas.  It's so me!


$6 Payless flip-flops.  Enough said.


These are a few of my favorite things.  What are you loving this week?
