Hottest Husband Award Goes Toooooo... - Finding Silver Linings

Mr. FSL. I’m not talking about how easy on the eyes he is (that’s a whole other post). I think he’s beginning to catch the D-I-Y bug! *swoooon* Let me explain…

Usually when my husband and I drive by a house that has furniture or household items on the curb, he covers my eyes and mutters something along the lines of “We don’t need it” or “That’s falling apart” or ” We already have 15 of them”. Clearly he doesn’t see the need for another chair spray paint/ reupholster makeover.

So you could understand my utter shock when he came home the other day and said “I saw something on the curb down the street that you said you were looking for. I’m going to grab the truck and go get it.”

Me:

Hottest words ever spoken 😛

After 6 1/2 years together, I think I’m rubbing off on him.

My husband brought mama home a curbside wine barrel.

Perfectly aged and weathered. Stay tuned to see what’s in store for this beaut.

Speaking of wine, I had a minor hair issue not so long ago. I dyed it “dark auburn brown”. I should have known that this meant hot pink, but I didn’t. I put a black glaze over it to try to tone it down a bit and ended up with this merlot-ish color. If I ignore the fact that it’s fuchsia in the sunlight, it’s starting to grow on me. Apparently hair D-I-Y isn’t my thing. I’ll stick to spray paint from now on. I woke up motivated enough to actually do my hair. This deserves a blog mention seeing how this never happens. There’s a first for everything I guess. Oooooooh!
