I keep hoping I'm going to make some headway on the projects that are on my list-- or even in mid-stream! But then things get busy at home or work and they go on the back burner again. I'm very much a project person. I like the feeling of being involved in a project-- whether it's a community service, church group, work, or home project. And even better is the feeling that comes with successful completion!With the intent … [Read more...]

You're probably tired of reading about my passion for purple, so I thought I'd give it a rest and talk about another favorite... pops of blue. While I was brightening my family room decor, I worked in a fair amount of celery green because it blended so well with the upholstery and wall color I already had. But I also found myself adding a few fun touches of blue:Like this flea market find!I like having the flexibility to go … [Read more...]

Passionate about Purple
March 14, 2011 by · Leave a Comment
I had something else planned for today's post, but life got in the way over the weekend and it's not quite ready to roll. Instead, I thought I'd share a few gorgeous purple rooms, in light of my home office redo that's in progress. I've purchased all of my fabrics and even got a deal on the purple velvet for the throw pillows {courtesy of the remnant bin}. They wait patiently...And I've settled on a smaller chair for the space, … [Read more...]
Door Bucket Love…and a Giveaway!
March 9, 2011 by · 11 Comments
One of the easiest ways to brighten up for spring is on the front door. Your front door sets the tone for welcoming friends and family into your home. Make it beautiful, welcoming, and friendly! Door buckets are a wonderful vehicle for changing the look of your front porch or stoop on a dime, and offer more flexibility than a traditional wreath. My all time favorite is my Willow House Flower Market Door Bucket, one of the first products I … [Read more...]

Catalog Finds: Ballard Designs
March 7, 2011 by · 2 Comments
When a new catalog arrives in my mailbox during the week, it usually goes into a substantial TBR {To Be Read} pile on the ottoman in my home office. But when my Ballards catalog showed up on Friday afternoon, all my other to-dos were done, so I immediately hunkered down with a cup of tea and dove in. Did you know they recently teamed up with Traditional Home to do a living room makeover for one lucky family? And did you know they’ve also … [Read more...]
My Purple Room {Home Office Update}
March 4, 2011 by · 4 Comments
I've searched high and low for an image of the inspiration room for my purple home office. I don't know where mine got off to, but it certainly wasn't digital! It dates back to the '90s when I visited one of the Southern Living Idea Houses with my mother... the year was 1995, because I remember leaving two babies at home with dad and grandad while Mom and I went galavanting around Georgia on a girls' outing. :) Funny how you … [Read more...]
