Well it’s that time of year again…Fall!! And nothing gets me more excited than to decorate the mantel (and the house) with Fall decor. It’s just a cozy time of year. :) This year I went with a rustic look and used lots of natural elements and textures. I was going to try and do a more modern mantel this… View Post
I’m sure you all heard about the new Missoni line at Target right? Everything was available yesterday, and ummm, apparently pretty popular since Target’s site was down all day, and since most stores sold out first thing in the morning. Craziness. It was like black Friday or something. Missoni made a line for Target that includes home decor items, clothing,… View Post
Our home office hasn’t changed much at all since we converted the dining room almost a year ago (except for the new flooring). And being the crazy person that I am (because a year is entirely too long without changes), I was itching for just a few subtle updates. And now enters our sweet new velvet curtains. I wanted something… View Post
Hey all! I don’t know about y’alls Goodwills and thrift stores, but for me, they’ve been a total bust lately. Granted I haven’t gone much this summer, but I do pop in occasionally searching for the next treasure. So since I haven’t had any luck at those stores, I decided to go to a really good antique store here in… View Post
A few weeks ago I took my Mom to Z Gallerie for the first time. I was hoping she would love it (how could you not?!), and hoping it wasn’t too modern for her. But apparently she is getting in touch with her modern side like I am, and she loved the store. Yay for shopping vicariously through someone! So… View Post
White kitchens. Yep, I talking about white kitchens again. I just can’t help it. I can’t get them out of my head. Every time I see one on the internet (and in person) they really just take my breath away. I love the dark kitchens too, but there’s just something about white that gets me all weak in the knees….

Hi everyone! I started the breakfast room redo a few months ago (maybe more), and finally just finished it. Hooray for several month long projects! ;) Here is the before, of when I redid it the last time… I got tired of the Tobacco Road and repainted the kitchen (Sherwin Williams Balanced Beige) to go with the rest of the… View Post
Ever find yourself looking through old pictures and reminisce about things, whether it be your family, children, and in this case, decor? Well that’s what happened to me yesterday, so let’s take a little journey through some of the “looks” our living room has had. This was not long after we moved into our house. That was hand-me-down furniture, and… View Post
Well, not for us so don’t get too excited, although I’d happily take this house in a heartbeat. This is my Mom and Stepdad’s new house. Isn’t it beautiful? They just moved in last Friday. I’ll give you a little tour of the inside. The entryway: And it used to look like this when they bought it, with this very… View Post
Well our gallery wall and board and batten is done. And….we love it!! Let’s first take a look at the before picture of this wall in our living room before I show you the rest. You know, the one where the picture is hung too high? :) Well since this is a big 2-story wall, it needed something with a… View Post
Have you seen a particular pillow that has big yellow rosettes on it floating around blogland? I’ve seen it on SO many blogs and thought it was so cute, so I finally asked my Twitter friends the other day where in the world this pillow is from. Isn’t it cute?! So in case you didn’t know about the pillow, it’s… View Post
A certain little girl is turning 2 this weekend! Oh my. We are having a little party here at the house, but I’m not going crazy on decorations or anything (or food), so don’t be expecting some elaborate birthday party post. Although it was pretty, last year’s party was just a little too nutty for me. I found myself checking… View Post
