Much as I hated leaving the beach and sunsets like this... I'm so excited to be attending Haven conference today and tomorrow! Hopefully I'll be soaking up all kinds of inspiration for you! At the very least, I know I'll be rubbing elbows and catching up with some of my favorite bloggers and learning how to make Decor & More a better experience for my readers. This week I had two guest posts published if you're looking for design … [Read more...]

Happy Friday, friends! Whew, what a week! I know I promised a giveaway today, but I've decided to wait a bit to announce it... you see, Decor & More is getting a little work done. :-D Can you see how big I'm smiling?? I'm so excited about the fresh new look coming our way! So because the site might be down a bit here and there for the next few days, it's not the best time to do a giveaway. It's coming soon, I promise, though. … [Read more...]
It’s the Little Things (and NYC Recap)

The weekend already? Jeez, time flies in the summertime... Thursday I journeyed down IKEA with my daughter to do some apartment shopping for her. That place never ceases to amaze me, and I shopped IKEA in Northern Virginia back in 1989 for MY first apartment! It was pretty cool then and it's even more so now... so of course I picked up a few little things for me, too. :) Like this $4 pillow cover for an insert I already … [Read more...]

Well, I survived the send-off... Even big brother took his lunch hour to say bon voyage... And big sister got extra tight squeezes... Hope Spain and Portugal are ready for this group!! Only a few tears on my end and extra tight hugs on his end. Thank you so much for your prayers as he embarks on this amazing journey to grow his faith. As for me, I'm headed to one of my favorite places... to hang with … [Read more...]

Ours looks like a wash out for outdoor fun, so we'll be having dinner with friends indoors later on... That's okay, though... we'll still be thanking God for our blessings and our troops for protecting our freedoms. Hope you have a safe and blessed Fourth! … [Read more...]

I'm having a hard time believing we're in July now! My summer is flying by... and I really want it to just sllllooooowwww down a bit!

Sharing is Caring {Southern Hospitality}
June 24, 2013 by · 4 Comments
Have you ever noticed that some of the best gifts are free? We're back from our second weekend in a row spent with good friends... and we've experienced the most amazing Southern hospitality. If you follow me on Instagram you saw a few peeks from our weekend fun in South Alabama on the Little Escambia Creek. And I returned with fresh vegetables, an incredible collection of driftwood, and new recipes to try... The previous weekend, … [Read more...]
Ten Things Tuesday…

Y'all I am scattered, smothered, and covered. Maybe it's all the short trips out of town on the heels of a crazy month of May. Maybe it's just summertime with a houseful. Maybe I just can't get my act together. When I sat down to write a post for y'all, my brain was all over the place. So I decided to take you down the rabbit hole of my thoughts... 1. I want a vegetable garden. Not sure I want all the work that comes with one, … [Read more...]

Happy Friday, friends! I've had a good week and it's finally starting to feel like summer... I even slept until 9 a.m. one morning -- total decadence, people. :) So today I'm sharing some "happies" -- just because. Monday night, my daughter and two friends of ours went to a book launch party for one of my favorite local authors, Mary Kay Andrews, and her new book Ladies Night! What a great party in a newly opened antique mall (!) where we … [Read more...]

I had so much fun hosting my Happy Birthday Giveaway! Y'all have some amazing projects on your To Do Lists and now I don't feel quite so bad about my own! I intended to have a furniture makeover for y'all today, but we're now having to make up all those high school soccer games that got rained out last month, so I'm spending time in the bleachers instead of finishing my project. Sorry, darling... I know you're a work in progress, but I … [Read more...]
