She’s sniffling and coughing away with a cold – so not fun! Lack of sleep = grumpiness by all involved.

The other day I suddenly decided that I’d like to paint the fireplace…and hubs agreed! Here’s BEFORE: The fireplace always bugged me because the brick looks sooty and dirty. And AFTER: I like the fresh, clean look that the white paint gives it. I’m looking forward to changing the mantle decorations from fall/winter to spring/summer, […]

(The tree in our front yard) The snow is falling and it looks so beautiful outside that I just had to take some pictures! I spent the day shopping for bedroom curtains (I’m almost done with the bedroom project and can’t wait to show you!) and of course I did some painting – I was […]

…he loves me! Aren’t they pretty? I love yellow roses!

Did you see the Oprah show about Sarah Jessica Parker’s new line of clothing called Bitten? I’m not a big fan of SJP, but I really liked these clothes and all the pieces cost less than $20, which of course I love! I gotta check out Steve & Barry’s sometime (never been there). There’s a […]

Can you believe this kitchen??? My styles constantly change, and this my current favorite for a dream kitchen! Love, love, love the dark hardwood floors, open glass cabinet doors, open shelving, huge island….everything!!

I have a problem. And I’m hoping I’m not alone. I paint stuff. Almostevery.single.day. Yesterday I painted… *Two lamp bases (my mom was going to throw them out and I thought I might be able to spruce them up. Now I just need to find some cute lamp shades.) *A wooden picture frame for the […]

Of a cozy little beach house off the coast of, well, anywhere warm! Enjoy your New Years!

Have you seen this show? It’s on HGTV at 3pm weekdays, and I try to catch it if I can. I love, love, love Candice Olsen’s designs! How I would love to have a room designed by her! I drool over everything she does! Candice Olson Here are several of her makeovers… Bathroom Before: Bathroom […]

We’re kind of in this “limbo-time” between Christmas & New Years, where it feels like the holidays are semi-over, but we’re not quite finished yet! We had lots of wonderful family-time over the past few days! For Christmas Eve, my sister Sara & I made an Italian-style dinner using recipes from the Olive Garden. We […]
