My Favorite thing party!

Hi to my SITSta's!
Thrifty Decor Chick is having a favorite things party! 
My favorite piece was this dresser I painted, but after a while it felt so big and boxy in my little living room. Then my Father -in-law offered me this piece. 
Now it's my new favorite thing!
Oh, and these. Have you tried these Hershey's candy cane kisses?? I am a chocolate snob. I only eat dark chocolate, except for these. They are like peppermint bark, You can melt them and cover pretzels with them, put them on top of chocolate cookies or cup cakes, melt them and toss Cheerios with them....The list goes on and they are the perfect balance of mint and sweet.... mmmmmmm.. 
Oh and also my new Christmas T's to be listed on Etsy.. Lime green and super cute! I may have to keep them for myself!

  1. Hi Jen,
    Your post had me smiling! Your about as fickle as I am. My favorite thing changes from day to day! LOL

    Haven't tried that candy. Might not be too good of an idea to get a whole bag for around here!

  4. I've got a stash of those delightful little kisses hidden away from my family---just for ME to enjoy. Call me selfish, but if I bring them out for my boys to see, they'll disappear in seconds!

    I can see why that piece of furniture is one of your favorite things. It's gorgeous!!!
