DIY genius

My sister-in-law is an awesome gift-giver!  We usually switch names for Christmas and I knew she had my name this year, so I asked for a magic-eraser mop.  Pretty exciting, right?

I guess she thought that wasn't a great enough present (even though it totally was), so she perused my pinterest pins to try to find other ideas.  I had pinned something similar to this trough I found at Terrain a couple of years ago.

So, imagine my excitement when I realized that she'd gotten her husband to make me one! And, the best part? He made it out of disassembled pallets!

I finally got around to filling it today, with Emma's help!  I realize it's still a little Christmas-y, but I figure I can change it out for each season.  I'm actually kind of thinking of how I could add a little moss and other spring-y items in a couple of months.

So......here it is!  I honestly just love it.  Thanks so much Nicole, for the idea, and Jeremy for the hard work!
