Everyone loves decorating with books. It’s an inexpensive decor item, especially when you buy them at the thrift stores. As I was admiring the new Ballard’s catalog the other day, I came across these Antique Book Bundles they are selling. How easy to recreate those right? And it won’t cost you $18 or $25 like they are charging for a… View Post
Embracing The Wood {And A Mini Kitchen Makeover}
Happy new year everyone! The new year around here is bringing some much needed de-cluttering and organizing and it feels so good. I am determined to get rid of a lot of stuff that I am no longer using, accessorize less, and just enjoy simplicity. I still will have accessories, but hopefully in a less cluttery way. We’ll see how… View Post
I Want To Do This. Should I?
Isn’t that paneling gorgeous? That image is from Phillip Sides who does lovely work. And I am thinking of doing it to this big wall… Sorry for the Christmas photos…it was raining and dark ALL day yesterday. All Christmas decor is stored and put away and it feels so good. :) But my question is, should I do the above… View Post
Christmas Home Tour
Greetings! Today I’m going to take you on a little Christmas tour of our home, and this should be the last of the Christmas posts? But I can’t promise that just yet. :) Knock knock, anybody home? Yes, come on in! To the right we have the staircase… And to the left of the entry we have the office. I… View Post
Festive Glass Displays
Do you like pretty things in glass too? I sure do! Although, I was a bit lazy decorating my cloches and apothecary jars for Christmas this year. I’m kind of *ahem* tired of decorating right now. I bet you can’t believe I just said that huh? I just went with the easy stuff mostly, which were ornaments and other sparkly… View Post
Ye Ole Christmas Tree(s)
I needed some kind of different title, because I figured a lot of people would title their tree post “Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,” like I was going to do. :) Anywho, here’s our tree! It’s your traditional red and gold which is my favorite. :) The lights do all sorts of tricks and go to all white lights… And… View Post
A Magical Christmas Village
I love Christmas. It’s been really exciting decorating this year. Maybe because I have a blog now to share everything. :) But my husband has been pumped this year too, and even has been helping me get things situated. What a guy. :) I really wanted a nativity set to display this year, but couldn’t find one I loved. Then… View Post
Deck the Mantel
Ho ho ho! It’s definitely beginning to feel like Christmas now. We’ve been busy ever since Friday trying to get all of the Christmas decorations up, but I’ve learned when you have a toddler, you have to do it in increments. :) But I did manage to get the mantel complete so that’s what I’ll be showing you today! In… View Post
The Staircase Makeover!
Well the stairwell wall is finally complete! Hip hip hooray! Let’s take a look at the before photos shall we? The above picture is the wall to the right of the staircase, but still the same wall. And now….the after! Ahhh, don’t you love moulding?? We continued the rail to that little wall behind the cabinet and I painted it… View Post
Do You Polyvore?
Have you heard of Polyvore before? I hadn’t until recently. It’s an online site that lets you create design and fashion boards, for free! There are thousands of pieces already uploaded on Polyvore’s site, so you won’t have a problem finding anything to create your own board, but you can still upload your own things too, if you wish. You… View Post
Bye Bye Brown Chandy
Or should I say “Shandy” because that’s how it sounds when you say chandelier for short? Um, anyway… After we got everything in our new office, the old dining room chandelier was just a major eye sore. It was big, bulky, and just not for an office obviously. So, this is what we replaced it with… Yes, track lighting! And… View Post
I Promise I’ve Been Working on Something…
Well I was until these crazy flu-like symptoms started up on Sunday night. Grrrr. We’ve all been sick around here, including our little girl. So needless to say, I haven’t accomplished much this week except eating pints of Blue Bell ice cream. :( BUT, I will show you what I am going to try and attempt to finish today… The fake… View Post
