My house is dusty. VERY. Dusty!! This fine layer of dirt is everywhere. From ground into the carpet to the top of window sills. I wonder if it will ever be clean again! Next revelation? Remodeling is a slow process. I painstakingly slow process. Having no previous experience I had no idea what to expect. Real life is not an HGTV 30 minute show. Real life takes months. Cupboards took 16 weeks to arrive. Once…

Let’s Get This Party Started!
I may not have been overly excited about moving (it’s SO MUCH WORK!!) But, I have to admit that decorating our new house is SO MUCH FUN!! PARTY time! I am truly having a blast! I have an entire house; an entire blank canvas to decorate. I am bringing together items from our old house in California and mixing in new items. I’m mixing antiques and modern.

I love mixing the antiques that were handed down from my Grandparents to sleek new things.…

Hello Sunday!
Oh Hello Sunday to all my Peanuts! Just in case you don’t follow me on Instagram I thought I would share some pictures I posted last week. First, this is the original picture of the master-bedroom. We decided that we weren’t too crazy about the green color. The Husband worked his tush off to paint it a soft mocha color. Whadda ya think??

I am not sure how to fix this one…… it’s purple and green….. AND CARPETED!!…
