My House!

For those of you who have sent messages asking about my house, thank you for your patience. The pictures are done and ready for you to see! It's funny I post other peoples homes everyday and absolutely love doing it, but I've got to tell ya it's a little different with your own!

 It's certainly not perfect but it's home for our little family! I sure do hope you enjoy!




Now were moving into the dining area:
And now the bedroom
Feedback is welcome!!!!!

Happy Weekend!!!!

Tilbury Lapis?

I've been loving Laura Ashleys Tilbury Lapis for a while now. I even posted that I wanted to do something with it in the dining room here. Well of course things have changed now but I still do love the fabric.  It's not over the top expensive but since I am always looking for low price fabric options I was stoked when I found two!

This is Laura Ashleys

And this little look alike is available through Lewis and Sharon $19.98
Will you be ordering any??? Its a steal!

White Hot Wednesday - Mix of Textures

This is the best mix of eclectic I've seen in a while. I always love when I come across and room and think to myself that I would have never put the items together, but somehow I love the room. For instance the horse, the flag book. I would have never thought to add them but they add an element of whimsy. It must be the unexpected that makes me fall!


It's amazing how just the bouquet of pink flowers adds the perfect amount of feminism!

Movin to the Beach

I can't wait to move into the tiny beach house, so naturally my mind has only been on beachy decor. While I don't want it to be your average beachy decor, of mass produced shell art, and and all shabby chic linens,  I do want to stay in the soft blue and white pallet. Of course there will be pops of color in there!
I want the feel of our place to be beachy chic but slightly glam as well. The hubby is dreaming about long hours surfing in the ocean, while I am dreaming about how all the ways to beautify the inside. (OK so I'm thinking about getting a killer tan too)  Lilly the pug is dreaming about all the skateboarders she will be attacking. We all have to dream right!

Anyhow I'm excited so I thought I'd share my excitement with you.

Here are some inspiration photos I'm working with:
