So I was tagged a couple of weeks back by Annie to post what my biggest obsessions are. I been thinking here and there, trying to be real creative ya know, and the fact is I couldn't really think of much...and the obsessions I do have are sort of OCD and may portray me as being a bit more strange than I sometimes already am. Anyhow, here are the top three I'll post.
Open cupboards, doors and drawers - I can't stand to have things not shut or open all the way. For example your bathroom drawer not closed even by half an inch drives me nuts. I don't know much else to say about it, except that I will go out of my way (for example I am running late to be somewhere and as I am walking down the hall I notice our closet door open - I will take the extra time to go back and close it.) If I am coming to visit please do a cupboard, door and drawer sweep, thank you.

XOCHI Tea Towels - I love cute towels in my kitchen. I am also favorable to this brand called Xochi which you can find at Hip & Humble, The Art Garden, even the Quilted Bear are just a few places. I highly recommend them for a great kitchen accessory. I also use their tablecloths. I know I have more than enough tea towels; however, I will continue to add to my collection because they are irresistible.
Hanging artwork or pictures in your home - Hanging your wall art is a skill. You can hang a picture too high or too low. The key is, if the picture is to be viewed standing, i.e. your hallway, then the correct height is eye level. You shouldn't have to lift your head up to view it or down. If the picture is viewed primarily from a seated position, i.e. the dining room, the picture should be hung much lower to be enjoyed without a glare while you are seated and well enough while standing. Never hang your pictures high up close to the ceiling unless you are all 7 ft. tall.
Whelp there you go. Posting these obsessions makes me feel like a cupboard/door and picture Nazi, but really I'm not. I'm just trying to think of something to write about.
I also tag Suz, Emily, and Rachel.

Yikes, I think that I probably had all of those things wrong with my house when you came over!! Sorry about that! Cute post though.
What are you talking about, your house was so cute! I don't go to other homes looking out for that; I hope I'm not that obsessed. I just obsess about it in my own home.
So when the heck are we going to hang out?!!
The six month prep was definitely worth the wait...your blog is so cute, also, your obsessions make me smile:)
