How to: make bobby pins fashionable

I have so many black bobby pins. I won't lie, I usually lose them. Which, in return causes me to buy another 100 pack of plain black bobby pins. With dh and I getting ready to purchase a house, I refuse to spend $2.99 to lose them. So, I decided to test painting them with the bah-zillion different nail polish colors  I have stacked up.

Step 1. Pick out your nail polish colors. As you can tell I really like the Sinful Colors.

Step 2. Separate the bobby pins you'd like to paint.

Step 3. Let them dry. 

Step 4. Check out the final product.

If you ask me, it passed. I saved $1.99 on already colored/painted/designed bobby pins by doing it myself. I am stoked to use them. 

I feel lost and excited at the same time

This house buying business is exciting and scary times, all at the same time. So, I have been filling my spare time with pinterest projects for our new home. I know I haven't updated in a while, and all my updates have been were projects. So here is a big update: Dh and I dropped the contract on what seemed like our dream house for something I would have NEVER dreamed we could afford. So we placed a contract on said home. Our contract was excepted, and we are moving fifty times faster than the previous. So grateful. 

(This is our soon-to-be new home)

When dh and I were planning on building our home, this is the front I wanted so badly. However, it is almost a $10,000 upgrade because of all the brick. So we chose the cheapest of the cheapest, and we were still nearly $45,000 more than we could afford. However, this home (while it is sad for the previous owners) is a foreclosure. I am excited to say that, after baby G wakes up today (and eats her breakfast) we are going and turning the water on for the de-winterization process. Which ultimately means we can set up our inspection. How exciting? Do you have any advice for first time home buyers?
