So I kinda hinted to that hole in my wall a few posts ago. It's been fun. Yep, fun. Poor hubs, he really has tried to get this project completed and tied up in a neat little bow, but there's this thing called life, and well, he has just not been able to give it all the time he had hoped he could. Bizarre to think this all started last...
Let's go with a little design today. I meant to share this article AGES ago. The back log of posts I need to write is overwhelming to say the least, but I'm trucking through one day at a time. Today I thought I would share a space I saw in House Beautiful in their August issue I believe (And BTW, I love when the article is also online! So easy...
I've said it before, that I love using Google Reader as it pulls the RSS Feeds from all my favorite blogs to one nice neat place. This made is easy for me to read in the middle of the night from bed while I was giving Piper her bottle, and now read when I wake up and can't for some unknown horrid reason, go back to sleep. But when I...
There is so much to a day that can be daunting and mundane....laundry, dishes, errands, work, diapers, cleaning.....blah. That's it's nice to give yourself a little boost here and there, even if that just means looking across the room at something pretty. I like to plant things in our garden that I can cut for inside the house too. We have Hydrangeas, Roses, Sunflowers and Rosemary that can all make...
My decorating infatuations are ALL OVER THE BOARD. There was a time in my life when I told my mom that when I grew up I wanted to have a house "with like FIFTY rooms in it". Not because I wanted a big fancy house, but because I wanted to be able to decorate each room entirely differently than the next. I think my Home Collection days at Ralph Lauren...
This Favorite comes after an email reminder from a reader in Oakland, California about how wonderful this company's poufs are! And she is soooo right!! Pixie Dust Decor is a DARLING company that offers poufs, bibs, blankets, burp cloths, tuffets...loads of wonderful cozy things! I love all of the fabric choices Pixie Dust Decor offers, each item gives you the option to see swatches and collection photos. Not only are...
By now you all know that I wayyyyyyy {heart} Zee Studio! If our sweet nanny is my Right Hand, then Susie of Zee Studio is my Left Hand! Everything else in life I accomplish with my feet I think! Back in Decemeber Zee Studio offered a giveaway for a mini blog design and Sara of Sarah + Abraham was the winner! I have been on pins and needles waiting to...
So did we all survive the first week of January??? I made it, I think, assuming of course I get through Friday (although I still have about 100 emails waiting for replies - so sorry everyone!!)! I did manage to take the Littles out in the double jogger today for a nice long walk and park time though, a first in a long time. Figured I might as well start...
I was asked about good tips for hanging pictures. I wish I was the perfect one to ask. This is one of those times that I knew would happen when you would see that I'm not really perfect and that I truly just wing it in a lucky way 90% of the time! Here goes anyway. I love photos. Always have, always will. If you've been reading my blog, then...
So I remembered to do the drawing this AM (I think Addie was as excited to see the drawing bucket as she was her presents!) But please forgive the point & shoot camera! As a reminder I left my big camera at Grams and Gramps house last night and this camera isn't nearly as fast with Miss Addison... But here goes... What's this mom? Did Santa bring this too?? Uh-oh! ...
