Today I am re-posting an old tutorial I did. I was moving tutorials to the "tutorial" page and realized that this might be something nice to see again! Back in August I think I had 3 followers so I can pretty safely say most of you haven't seen it! Sunflowers are sort of Fall-like but with Spring stuff showing up everywhere, I was in the need of a … [Read more...]

Beautiful Tree
December 12, 2011 By 25 Comments
I usually decorate my own tree. As many of you do, I change up the tree each year and it never looks exactly the same. There are some constants, white lights, lots of silver and white ornaments, vintage looking ornaments (my favorite) and no tinsel.

I hope you had a nice weekend. I did. My hubby knows we won't go out much unless we have a reason because I always worry about whether the house will still be standing if we leave the Mongolian Horde home alone...so, he bought us season tickets to the symphony!

Another Man’s Junk…….

I thought I'd clarify a bit more about my taste in design. It's definitely 'eclectic' and moves from French to English to Vintage to Primitive/Country. I don't have a problem with it but some folks really need to pigeonhole you in order to understand and I refuse to be so contained. We'll start with the French part. I love anything with French … [Read more...]
