you would think since i have had this blog for a little over two and a half years, i would be a little more computer savvy....not so much!! just ask averill! who was sweet enough to ask me to do a guest post on her beautiful blog odi et amo. luckily, after about ten emails, i figured out how to send her my post. so if you are interested in how i shop, head on over......*thanks again averill for...

i love this quote....it's often easy to get distracted by the the obstacles that surround us but when i read this, i kind of feel like i could be a super hero and conquer the world...watch out :)*images courtesy of fern and feather, robot heart, little green notebook, black eiffel...

for being such a wonderful support system. it seems like these days my life consists mostly of pregnancy issues vs. beautiful design stories....but to be able to have people understand where i am coming from is a huge sigh of relief. i can't thank y'all enough, really. i passed my second round of tests so no gestational diabetes here. does that mean i can get that pound cake out of the freezer...

it's official...i am a hoarder. not in the sense of dirty garbage taking over my house...but rather, i'm a hoarder of ideas, fabrics, and pictures. i hold onto them forever, contemplating what i am going to do with them (drives my husband batty). this addiction applies only to my own house and decorating it. i finally made a decision for taylor's room. i am using quadrille's paradise background....

i failed a test. it's not the first time it's happened in my life...i use to have my fair share of fun in college, i'm sure i didn't study for a pop quiz or something. it really shouldn't come as a surprise- i failed the same test 3 yrs ago. but it still sucks none the less. b/c to retake the test you have to drink 3 big bottles of the sweetest, thickest, syrup like concoctions known to man....in...

yesterday, warren and i looked at each other at 6:00 and said "let's just go to bed and start this day over".....sometimes days just don't go exactly as planned. so today i am starting off w/ this quote...{update} apparently this magical quote works.....my fairy godfather (aka the fed ex man) has rung my doorbell twice this AM: once he delivered a basket full of bath beauties and once w/ a pound cake....

i love the intensity of this color and the details that make each of these pictures stand out in my mind: the striking awning that could be interpreted into a window treatment, the simple band of trim that really makes the upholstery and draperies pop, the double mirrors that replace a wall mounted one, the graphic small-scale wallpaper that expands a narrow space, the detail of the headboard that...

while i put on this necklace and then take an afternoon ride on this amazing beach cruiser....i always feel it's important to match your accessories with your bike :)*images courtesy of fric frac, it's mary ruf...

although it might not appeal to everyone's palette, i think the color pink is fantastic. in fact, if taken seriously, it can completely transform a room into well..... perfection.*images courtesy of kelly green interiors, little green notebooks, ruthie sommers (2 images), sally steponkus, shop grame...
