I tell you what, lovelies, December is taking it out of me. Parties, Christmas programs, shopping, wrapping, plans changing with weather – UGH! Therefore, this post is going to be short on words. Ironically, it’s inspired by using words in decor. Observe:

I’m back from a day filled with Christmas cheer. First, I decided to finish my Christmas shopping. It is now done, but I may have lost my will to live. Oh, the crowds. The line in Target was so long I needed a large fountain Diet Coke (with a shot of Cherry Coke, naturally) AND [...]

…decorate!
We are wrapped up in the giant snow storm that is lovingly embracing the Midwest. I got off work early yesterday and surely won’t have to drive in today, so I finally have time to play with some new Christmas decorations!
Last week, K spotted some pretty silver ball garland from Target (like this). [...]

Did you read the title of that post and think what?!?! I know, say that three times fast….
Well, Homage, I have finally found a craft that unites my love of burlap with J’s abundance of gardening supplies (left over from the glut of tomatoes produced this summer).

Is it sacrilegious to post about wine on Sunday? I think not…..
So, I’m starting to think this arrangement on my dresser is pretty tired.
I received these purple allium stems for our wedding (I registered for a lot of home decor items……nevermind that we had no towels, these flowers were a MUST!). I still think it [...]

Actually, that’s not true. I’m pretty sure it’s supposed to be in the 50’s today and snow is nowhere to be found (which is fine. by. me.) And we all know my views on Christmas usurping Thanksgiving.
However, I am already excited about our Christmas tree. We’ve had two Christmases in this house, and each year [...]

Yes, you read that right. I know what you’re thinking – what is going on at Homage? Do they have some kind of bedroom furniture fixation? Are there drugs for that?
We do and there isn’t. So we will all just have to suffer through.
While J is searching for the perfect nightstand, I am on the [...]

Did you read the title wrong and think I meant this piece of cinematic genius?
It is one of the best films ever made, at least according to J, but I had something else in mind for today….another stop on our blog tour!
Today’s feature is one of my new favorite sites – Three Men and a [...]
