Hello, lovelies! It's really late tonight, and I just can't sleep. The Boy is traveling on business which means momma bird stays up all night long making sure no masked bandits get in the house. I know, it's super silly, but I have this fear that if I close my eyes, something horrible will happen, and I will sleep thru the entire ordeal.[...]
Well, they probably don't have better stuff, but their homes are probably more put together than mine. I think I have ADHD...I start a project with good intentions...completely focused and then oh look, a chicken, something shiny and I'm on to the next project when ooooh look shinier, I wander around a bit, move something around and then[...]
So I need your help — like I really need help. My foyer is finally no longer a merry-go-round of random tables, chairs, trunks, and shelving. Yeah me! That in itself is winning. This has been a long 3-year process to finally get it where I feel satisfied with the look and feel. I really liked the idea of shelving in this space, but wit[...]
Hello, lovelies! While perusing the interwebs a month ago, I ran across the most adorable table I’ve ever laid eyes on. from the genius mind of Brooklyn-based designer Katy Skelton, please meet, the Zelda table.

A month ago I was enjoying some R&R in Hawaii and oh how I miss it so! Because we left for 2 weeks and half of our vacation was spent with my husband's co-workers, I had to pack smart...and that included my carry-on bag. It got me thinking, what makes the perfect carry-on? This flight in particular was about 10 hours because I'm not[...]
There's no denying it; I'm a sucker for a gallery wall. I love EVERYTHING about them! When we moved, I thought the boy might move out with how many collages of wall decor he had to hang. One would think after 3 years I might run out of wall space, but no...I keep finding new, unique wall art or photography that must go in the house. In t[...]
