Hi, hi my pretties. I have been a bit MIA lately but theres a reason... Color Me Carla is getting a complete design/website overhaul! So while you havent seen posts for the past couple days and proba...
Sometimes I wonder how many images my peepers see a day. Starting around 5:30/6am every day (I cant believe that after 32 years Im actually a morning person now), I start scrolling through oodles of ...
In case you live under a rock, I should let you know that I LOVE tribal rugs and pillows. Im a sucker for an all white room with pops-o-tribal texitles throughout. Tribal pieces are the perfect way t...

Im getting back into my old groove after being away for ten days. One thing that I greatly missed is spending time in my home office/studio. A couple of months ago Jack and I decided that we would tu...
Happy New Year! We are back from our Christmas vacay in Wisconsin and Im avoiding the boxes, bags and piles of laundry that we unloaded from the car last night. Of the many lazy, self indulgent activ...
A college pal and fellow SLP-er is looking for some idears to spruce his print shop Chux. He mentioned wanting to embrace the raw materials of the space while not spending too much. I found a bunch o...
I was delighted to receive a reader question from a student at my alma mater - go Blugolds! Meredith, like probably a lot of college students, is struggling to make her college pad feel unique and de...
What? Dont give me that look. Decorating our living room for the umteenth time is a perfectly sane idea. I mean, weve had the same sofa for at LEAST six months and who keeps the same throw pillows fo...

Im somewhat obsessed with pretty smelling lotions and potions that are bottled in well designed packages. A bright bottle of hand soap set atop a white pedestal sink can be the only accessory your ba...
Today is a happy day. Theres a whole lotta right going on with today.First off, we have a fluffy white blanket of snow outside. The first snow always puts me in an awesome mood. Second, its a short w...

Ladies and Gents, we are ONE DAY AWAY from stuffing our faces! You know what this means... lots-o-time in the kitchen. This year, Jack and I are hosting Turkey Day at our pad. My parents are coming f...
My good friend Tina emailed me a couple weeks ago letting me know that their basement flooded and they had to gut the whole thing and start over. What terrible news, right? WRONG! Now they get to sta...

I mean, come on. Is there anything better than waking up to a fresh dusting of snow? No, theres really not. So unless its snowing in, like, June, youre probably going to get a snow-inspired blog post...
Dadgummit, Carla! Here I want to do a post about green spaces as we are going to see The Muppets tonight (Kermie = green), but my past self already did a blog post entitled Easy Being Green. Grrr, I ...
First things first, it snowed all day yesterday so I am happily perched in my white leather swivel chair with a blinding flood of light bouncing off the pretty white fluff-fest going on outside our d...
This has to be short and sweet as I gotta get my arse to workie poo. About a week ago, Mrs./Mr. Anonymous requested a post on affordable sofas. I wasnt totally convinced Id be able to find much, but ...
Yamma hamma, Ive been a bit slow moving today. Mighta had myself just a weeeeeeee bit too much fun last night. Well, nothing helps me feel better like putting together a fun and colorful mood board f...
I received an email the other day with a request for a post on kids play rooms (yay! send your requests to me!!!). And since a lot of my readers are mums, it dawned on me that I should start doing mo...

Well everything is going just swimmingly over here at Doodle Central! Rosy and Fern are chasing each other around our big tree out back as we speak (in the dark, on the cold icy grass). Oh, you wanna...
Lets get one thing straight: I love to sleep. LOVE. IT. I have always been a sleeper and its always been a struggle for me to wake up (I usually hit snooze no less than 6-7 times and then mutter a sw...
