Happy Monday! I'm recovering from a busy weekend with my parents in town and my youngest son's confirmation. Seems like just yesterday he was baptized and now he's confirmed and headed for Europe with his Youth Group this summer. Yowza. Anyhoo, I thought I'd share something fun today, while I finish up editing the mass of photos from my February DIYs. The last couple of months while I've been out and about and trolling Pinterest, I've seen … [Read more...]
TGIF… headed to Scott’s. :)
February 8, 2013 by · 6 Comments
Well, I was hoping to have a couple of projects finished, photographed, and ready to share today. Not quite. :) Wax is drying, burlap is cut/staged/ready, lampshade is poised for her makeover. But it was a crazy week on the home front and at school, so I got nothin'. In fact, I took a nap when I got home from school yesterday. It was that kind of week. This should be a banner weekend for those 90% projects, though, so I'll have some … [Read more...]

Home Goals 2013 {Finally!}
January 25, 2013 by · 9 Comments
Ok, I know January is almost over, but it took me several weeks to really refine my home goals. And they're not really refined. I'm afraid I've set some lofty goals for the home, but maybe this will be my year to get a lot accomplished. :-) Knowing me, there will be a fair amount of DIY and other decor distractions along the way, so we'll see! And here they are, in no particular order... Add drapes to the family room … [Read more...]
Looking Back (a 2012 Review)
January 13, 2013 by · 4 Comments
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...]

Up and Running!
November 7, 2012 by · 6 Comments
Woo hoo, we are officially open for business at the newest Queen of Hearts Antiques and Interiors location! The last couple of weeks have been hour-to-hour as far as whether we had the Certificate of Occupancy and could get moved in. I re-tagged much of my inventory from my previous space, and had new things to add in, so I was (and my garage was) in quite a state! But it's up and running and we have a Holiday Open House on Tuesday November … [Read more...]
