I read this great article in the Wall Street Journal this weekend which makes a case against using color in the home. There were even quotes from Miles Redd, the man that knows how to work color, sta...
Just came across this fabulous necklace from Sollis. Ill take one in each color please.
I was browsing the Waterworks site to check out the new Studio Collection after reading about it in Elle Decor. These new fixtures run about half the price of their regular line and it also includes ...
One of the good things about living in the D.C. area are the farmers markets. Every Saturday I awake with excitement to get to the market and buy up the produce for the week. So many things look so g...
This summer was fabulous, filled with hot, humid days that included work, reading, cooking and some exploring. Admittedly, our home looks almost identical as when we moved in and I have had a very di...
I have been off the blogging bandwagon for some time now. Although almost a year into this move, the transition to a new town, new office and new people has been a difficult one for me. I have a busy...
While watching Sarahs Cottage the other day, I noticed she had her husbands initial carved into two of the kitchen cabinets. Not much later, I found the incredible portfolio of Lucas Studio and stumb...
Did you see this article in the New York Times on the fixer-upper barn? If not, its worth a read. Owned by the founder of a venture capital firm, it was bought and restored to its current day glory....
Since I have been looking at wedding pictures all over again (I shamefully admit to purchasing the new Martha Stewart Weddings Magazine) I cannot help but lust over the gowns that are out there. Whil...

Yes, I want this KitchenAid mixer. I would buy it if didnt already have one! Oh, and if it matched anything at all in my kitchen. From here.
Between this royal wedding coverage and the Twilight re-runs on TV (yes, I know the book is better but I continue to get sucked into that movie!) I have not taken enough time to focus on decorat...
When it comes to decorating my own home, I am feeling some serious signs of ADD. Normally I am a very focused and organized person but with all the inspiration out there (and lack of some s...
After putting away the wool pants and sweaters last weekend I took out all of my spring items even though I cannot quite wear them yet. Ill wait for the rain to go away before pulling out the white p...
I have been a busy bee ever since the weather began to get nice. Not sure why but just knowing spring is here makes me more productive. Now if only I can transfer that to motivation to the winte...
Although the wedding is over, I find that nothing inspires me more than flipping through bride magazines or the websites. Yes, I am that girl that still cannot get enough! The ideas can turn over int...
With daylight saving time happening this weekend, I could not be happier about spring being right around the corner. All of a sudden the cold weather is beginning to lift and so is my grumpiness that...
I have been on the hunt for a new desk for weeks now. Who knew this would be so difficult (for me)? My ideal desk is more a table since I am looking for workspace thats larger than your normal desk. ...
As I work on one project I am always thinking about whats next. Not always the best idea when finishing the first project is always the main goal. Well, the office is coming together nicely...
I stopped into the Calico Corners this weekend and was pleasantly surprised! It has been way too many years since I stepped foot in here and I am ready to reupholster everything in my house...
As we continue to organize and try to make some decorating decisions, I am beginning to realize the difficulty in, well, making decisions. On a day to day basis I am normally one to make a decision q...
It really is too bad that Valentines Day falls on a Monday this year. I am not normally a big fan of the day but I do love the abundance of pink and red that surrounds me on this day! Had I found thi...
Now, I know that my wedding is over but I would be lying if I said I havent looked at a wedding website since the big day. It turns out that there is just too much inspiration that can translate into...
I have become semi-obsessed with finding things for our new bedroom. Of course dinnertime is spent on the couch while I continue the hunt for the perfect table but why not work on one room that no on...
As you can imagine, I have about 1000 photos stored in my "home inspiration" file saved on my computer in addition to the magazine spreads I have lying around in every single room. Turns out ...
I figured it out finally! If anyone else is having this ridiculous problem with Blogger right now, you cannot add images to the Compose screen. Instead, use the Edit HTML tab and upload the images th...
Does anyone know how to add images to blogger? When I go to add an image I get this Google cloud picker image and then there is nothing to sign into! HELP!
I was finally able to upload all of my pictures so the final wedding post is here! Our venue, Lord Thompson Manor actually throws a wedding weekend. Since there is not much around this part of Connec...
Sunday Fundays were the best, werent they? Unfortunately, my Sundays are a bit more relaxing now but after a very long weekend that consisted of peeling awesome antiquated wallpaper bo...
Hi everyone! I am still here, alive and well. The holidays brought lots of travel and the challenge (I mentioned here) requested limited media so I took an internet break which was nice. Honestl...
