Looking back is not my strong suit. :) I'm a proponent of moving on, pressing ahead, not looking back. But 2012 was a year of growth and change for Decor & More, and many of you are new around here...so I think it's fitting that I do a little review of last year's projects and progress. In January, I did a little thrifting, some organization, and added some art work to my Mom Cave. I also created this easy little moss … [Read more...]
2013…The Word?
January 4, 2013 by · 7 Comments
Hello everyone and Happy 2013! We're back from the beach and I'm digging out from under Christmas decorations, new calendars, bills awaiting, and laundry. Ah, re-entry. I'll be catching up on my email and blog reading this weekend, so if I've neglected your comments or recent posts, I apologize. I was under-the-weather a good part of our trip and didn't read as much as I'd thought I would -- lots of sleeping in, chillin' in Gulf breezes, and … [Read more...]
NYC at Christmastime
December 31, 2012 by · 7 Comments
Hi there! Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas surrounded by those you love! My family has scattered and the hubs and I are enjoying some (much needed) R & R at the beach for New Year's. I can't wait to share some photos of our adventurous Christmas soon! But as we head into the New Year, I thought I would share some from my trip to NYC with my daughter. The trip started as a reward for all her hard work, but turned into a rockin' … [Read more...]
October’s Favorite Things
November 2, 2012 by · 1 Comment
Can you believe it's November? Do you feel that clock ticking toward Christmas like I do?? Wow! This October was a jam-packed, fun-filled, stress-inducing month. Wonder what November will be like??? I'm scared. Hold me. Just kidding! But seriously, we were out of town quite a bit, running our legs off while in town, and hanging by a thread about the opening of the new antique mall where my booth will be. Oh, and out of town company … [Read more...]
What I’m Loving: NYC… in Pictures
October 17, 2012 by · 7 Comments
My NYC photos are all edited and ready to share! It was such a great weekend... I thought I'd let the photos tell the tale. :) *Sorry to interrupt! This tree was salvaged from the rubble of the towers, nursed back to health in a conservatory, and then transplanted back to the memorial last year. It was awarded this... *A favorite watering … [Read more...]
Six Months
October 13, 2012 by · 9 Comments
It was six months ago today that we lost our sweet Kaely to a drunk driver in Miami. This is such a hole in my children's hearts and as I watch my Jack thriving and loving his first year of high school, I can't help but think how unfair it is that she's not doing the same. Rest in peace, sweet girl. Hug your children, friends. … [Read more...]
I Can’t Resist… Taking Care of Business

Woo hoo! I spent Thursday night getting a few nagging things done... Cross "order Christmas cards" off my list! Thanks to PicMonkey and Shutterfly, I've got these babies printing up right NOW! 5x7 Folded Card View the entire collection of cards. Is this a motley crew or what? We're so scattered, I've gotten in the habit of snapping pics of whomever is together at any point in time and doing a collage of … [Read more...]

October 1, 2012 by · 4 Comments
Another busy weekend behind us and another busy week before us! And here we are in October! Wow, as reluctant as I was to embrace September, I have to admit that it's a pretty wonderful month. And it's been a little rocky, too, so I was so happy to pull together this post of the wonderful things I enjoyed. Always good to camp out on the positive, no? So without further ado... my favorite things from September! 1. 3 of my favorite … [Read more...]
This ‘n That Friday
September 21, 2012 by · 4 Comments
What a week. All I can say is T.G.I.F. My Little Crazies at school have been exactly that -- CRAZY. I'm not sure what it is about this group, but my assistant and I have had a hard time reining them in. Makes for some very loooooong days and a lot of evenings of being completely spent and brain-dead. Not good for creative juices! It's pretty clear most of my creativity will have to happen on the weekends this year! This weekend I'm … [Read more...]
August’s Favorite Things
August 31, 2012 by · 7 Comments
Yowza, it's so hard to believe we are rocking into SEPTEMBER! A whole new crop of Little Ones to acclimate, new routines for my high schoolers, new football season, new goals for a successful school year. But with all of that comes a whole lotta time constraints. So if my visiting and commenting on blogs drops off a bit and I may have to post a little less, just know that I'm still here... still writing, DIY'ing as best I can, and reading as … [Read more...]
