Yes, my loves, welcome to ANOTHER Christmas decor post. Tis the season, and I can’t get enough. The subject of today’s rambling? Garland, of course. I recently realized I do not have any of this Christmas classic in our home. Tragic, I know. I love classic fir garland, but I’m contemplating branching out (HA, pun [...]

I am obsessed with this photo that originally appeared in the late Cottage Living (*tear*), posted by the lovely Marianne

Every year I encounter the same Christmas-decor dilema. It stems from my deep love for Christmas ornaments (and, let’s face it, all things shiny) combined with an affinity for clearance racks.

If you like it then you should have put a frame on it. Oh oh oh, oh oh oh.
Well, loves, it’s almost noon and I’m just getting around to deciding what to do with my day. What I NEED to do is something about my front door. It is currently bare. Yes, BARE, for the [...]

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:
Red Letter Words

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).
Isn’t it cute? I think it’s a perfect way [...]

So, I’m still in the brainstorming phase of turning my writing desk into a chic, modern vanity. As I dusted it off and tried to organize the random clutter this past weekend, I realized just how out of control my jewelry situation is.
Necklaces askew, bracelets hanging in and out of drawers, hair baubles falling on [...]
