Happy Cyber Monday, friends! Have you got your holiday shopping on yet? I have a few things I'll be ordering today, but for the most part I try to shop all year so the financial hit isn't so hard this time of year. :) The blogosphere is loaded with Gift Guides the past few days, and though I was tempted to put one together myself, I thought I'd just share a little randomness with you today. All 7 of us were together (briefly!) on … [Read more...]

Hi friends! Back today with some more awesome gift ideas from one of my favorite online boutiques, Bourbon & Boots.

Shopping Around: Linden
September 18, 2014 by · 1 Comment
If you follow me on Instagram, you know I got started on a furniture painting project last week... and wouldn't you know it, I ran out of my clear wax halfway through. I wasn't comfortable switching to a different wax half way though a project. So I had to track down a local Annie Sloan stockist and that was not easy, even here in Atlanta! This turned into one of those "happy accidents" because in finding an Annie Sloan stockist I … [Read more...]

Monday was a blur, so here we are Tuesday! If you follow me on Instagram you know why, but more on that later... I realized I never showed you what I scored at the Country Living Fair last month, so today's your day! Of course those vintage oversized flash cards were immediately calling my name... they weren't cheap, so I chose my two favorites. The world map paper? There are actually two of them there... one project for my classroom … [Read more...]
More Guest Room Progress :)
May 8, 2013 by · 5 Comments
This week will probably kill me. Just letting you know... and before it totally gets away from me, I wanted to show you MORE progress in the guest room (plus do a little thinking-out-loud to you!). I finished up that thrifted lamp makeover and got her situated on the dresser. Now that I'm pulling the room together slowly, I'm thinking of leaving the dresser as is for now -- maybe just switching out the hardware? I like the color in … [Read more...]
Guest Room Lighting

Happy Monday, y'all. After a rainy weekend of getting things done, I feel a little better about my To Do List, but there's still much to do in the coming weeks. We finally got graduation announcements for my son in the mail, brought my daughter (and all her STUFF!) home from UGA, and ticked off several things I needed to do for school. I was hoping to get more done on the guest room, but ran out of time. Boo. Even though the weather didn't … [Read more...]
Spring Mantel Tweaks… I Couldn’t Resist
April 25, 2013 by · 8 Comments
Howdy hoo, y'all -- another busy week rocking and rolling around here! So far this week we've celebrated two birthdays in my preschool class, Earth Day plus caterpillars (!), and then yesterday a puppet show. I'm whipped by 2pm every day! I'm still working away on the guest room, but I took a few minutes to freshen up my spring mantel since Easter is now behind us... It all started with a quick trip to "Junk Day" at the Woodstock … [Read more...]

Hey there, friends... I had every intention of posting more guest room progress this week, but... Ah the joys of high school sports! Your weekday evenings are not your own. :) Truthfully, though, it's been a blast watching him work so hard, improve his skills, have some fun and finish their season undefeated (My boy scored the final goal!). And not only do we have a team of good players (REALLY good players), we also have a … [Read more...]
