Color Crush: Chartreuse

Color Crush

Friday I showed you some candlesticks I had picked up from a thrift store… They were brand new from Crate & Barrel… still had the packaging and tags on them. I am not sure why someone wouldn’t have taken them back from store credit or a refund, but I sure am glad they didn’t! Anyways, I had been ‘eyeing’ those candlesticks for awhile… it’s something about greens that have me a little excited these days… especially chartreuse!!

Score! Fun Finds…

Green Candlesticks

Happy Friday everyone… Hopefully all of you have a fun weekend planned! I am hoping for some sun, fun & family time. I also have a few diy plans up my sleeve!! Right now it’s a bit cloudy, so we will see if my plans come through or not. For now, I want to show you what I scored late last week…

Office ‘Lineup’: Painting Stripes

Striped Wall

We painted stripes, again.

Remember awhile back when I mentioned we had plans to (finally) design our home office? Well… it’s happening! Actually, it happened! We are in the ‘styling & decorating’ phase of this fun little project and I can’t wait to show you the entire project!! You are going to love it (hopefully)! But for now… I am only showing you the accent wall phase…

Birthday Blooms…

Flowers

It’s no secret that I LOVE flowers! I love fresh flowers & potted flowers! This year, Kevin surprised me on my birthday with 3 sets of beautiful fresh cut flowers… They are so pretty I thought I should share!

28 Things…

28 things

Monday, February 6th, I turned 28! I had a fabulous birthday surrounded by family who love me…. it was pure bliss. Even though New Year’s is generally perceived as the ‘beginning of the year’, my birthday always feels like the beginning of mine. I am a big “birthday girl”. I love birthdays. In fact, I have a “birthday week” I love it so much!
