Now that I've gotten my poor daughter semi-well (strep throat, roseola, and now a yeast infection-from the antibiotics no less), I've gotten back into work mode.  I'm working on a dining suite for a client (hey Ashley!) and let me say, I'm so excited about the...

I'm back!!  Finally, a new project to share with you guys.  And one day when this attic is finished, I might also actually be able to stage pictures inside my home. For now, outside and makeshift will do. I picked up this antique gossip bench from Mr. E.C.'s place a...

 (If you guys can't tell, I'm trying to keep you interested since i've had no time to work on new projects this week--too busy holding my sick sick baby.)I love the color palette and coastal feel to these rooms.  If I could, and one day Matt and I would love...

We are in the throws of construction, so you won't be able to tell a lot, but you can get a general idea.The writing room is mine, all mine.  Matt let me make every single decision alone (well, mostly) and I am SO thrilled with the direction its heading!! ...

Sort of. It had it's meltdown moments, but overall, it was a wonderful trip and I am so thankful to have gotten to share that kind of magic with my family.Okay, please mentally remove random middle-age dad...and notice how beautiful The Crystal Palace is! ...

but I just had to pop in and say hi! (and why is it I look the worst in this picture?)  I miss you guys SOOOO much!  I promised Matt no working, no blogging (have I mentioned I'm addicted??), or flea markets (on the way to our trip--don't worry, we're...

Some of the houses on college street are cottage-y, some are tudor styled...there is no pattern except for the common beauty in each of them.  They are certainly older homes, with plenty of detail and character.Again, I want to get out of the car to take some...

I'm not sure if you guys noticed, but I tend to be somewhat of a copycat.  I am not embarrased in the slightest to look at something, especially something's from the Barn, and copy it shamelessly. In all my thrifting for PI restoration and for our home addition, lamps...

Hence, I'll probably post a "part two" of Saturday Shout Out this week.  Either way, I loved these four projects so very much and wanted to show them to you!Sarah, at Harrigan Howdy, put on a perfectly pink and pretty princess party (try saying that 5 times...

Wanted to show you guys my latest work...they are happily in their new home now (hey Ashley!) Here is her coffee and end tables before: I should have taken a better "before", but I honestly was smitten with the "pottery barn look of them" that I was ready to get to...

It's time to show you all the great pieces I've got in my shop right now.  These will all be finished and sold, or some lucky gal (or guy) can let me know they'd like me to refinish it in their colors.I love each of these pieces for the details that make each...

First, let me say two things: One, my computer is going to a new place of crazy and i've literally been trying to upload pictures to blogger all morning long! Second: let me say that our house is turning into a flea market as we wait to get in our addition....there's...

Have I mentioned I love blue mason jars??They are absolutely magical to me.  I love the way the light filters through them....and everywhere I go, I look for them.  I have only one criteria:$5 or less.  Which sometimes means I have to walk away from...
