My Summer List…….

I love the summer lists that lots of bloggers complete with their young children……. But I have tween and teen girls who need no reminders to make s'mores or have sleepovers or go to the beach. And truth be told…..if I allowed it, my entire summer would revolve around nothing else than ensuring my girls  are entertained 24-7…….. Of course, I want my girls to have a great break but this...

My life according to my iPhone…...

Happy Sunday evening friends. I am wrapping up a busy week and preparing for yet another….Yes, it's summer and I am craving more control over our schedules {particularly mine} …. more on that later this week! For now, I thought I would share what I have been up to lately….{I know you are not all DYING to know}….  My little girl finished 6th grade and I hosted 5 of her besties for a...

TRUTH.

Love this. It's the truth. I want my girls to really know this. So I must practice it myself. In my living and breathing actions. Today, I wanted to remind you of this. But you probably already knew it. Cause I have smart readers. It's Monday. Summer. Lot's of possibilities....

Summer Design Board Sale!

Helping homeowners, both near and far, decorate their homes  has been both a blessing and an absolute BLAST this past year. I have to admit, it sometimes it still surprises me just how busy you all have kept me.  I am not taking on any new local client projects until September. First and foremost I am a momma and my girls need my taxi services this summer.  I am working...

Painted trim…..recent client projects.

I am working with two local clients on home office projects -  in both spaces i have recommended painted trim {not white}. I love brave clients {if painting trim can be considered brave, which I DO}, I love clients who trust my vision……I am considering making a 'trust contract' for ALL clients {just kidding!} - but it really yields the best results, whether you are  working with...

Our home….the spring version.

The one constant in our home is change….. It's both a blessing and curse to be a creative who loves design and has never met a home accessory she didn't like….. I admit I am fickle….lamps, trays, vases, busts, lanterns, pillows, ginger jars, art, antlers, mirrors……all seem to rotate around here on a regular basis….. I obviously have posted too many photos of our home on this...
