A little bling was already sewed into the skirt!

Hope you are all enjoying the holidays!


Can't tell you how much I enjoy this vintage chalkboard for sharing bible verses.

Dear Lord, 
Wrap your loving arms around all those whom have lost loved ones, as well as those injured in the recent Paris attacks!

Another Boho Chic Sectional!

Also designed a Boho Chic Sectional for our living room. Just purchased a standard roll away bed from a discount store, added  cushions, and dust ruffle and positioned it adjacent to slip-covered sofa. Love this space now.

Oh so comfy!

Pretty and practical Barcelona door mats!

Love my new Barcelona vinyl mats that I ordered from Rachel Ashwell. They are so practical. No more messing with heavy rugs getting in the way of opening and closing doors. 

Love these new mats. This one is at the back door leading out to garden.






They are so practical. They wipe clean with soap and water on both sides.




This one is at my front door. Oh so pretty!





The design is "Barcelona".

Boho chic sectional!

Designed a boho chic sectional for TV room. Purchased two twin discount roll-away beds, pushed them together, added twin dust ruffles, cushions and mushy pillows. Keep an eye out for cushions at thrift stores. I used four big exercise cushions that I  found while out thrifting. You could also use pallets as a base.  Love this space now. 

! Love curling up in the corner with a book and a blanket. So comfy!


Perfect little  room for either TV viewing or reading now!
