HOW-TO-MAKE-AN-EASY-DIY-OUTDOOR-MOVIE-SCREEN-WITH-STAND

Fall is the perfect season to host an outdoor movie night in your backyard! It’s that time of year when outdoor furniture is still outside and it gets dark earlier than the summer which means your little kiddos can enjoy the movie night as well. It’s so nice to transform your backyard with cozy blankets, […]

round up of budget friendly bar carts

Can you believe it’s already November? Before we know it Thanks No. 1 Modern bar cart with patterned sides that looks great as is, but would also look amazing painted a pop of color! Plus it’s only $157. No. 2 This lucite bar cart is a personal favorite of mine. Look at those chic lines! […]

For the longest time our backyard was mainly just grass and a little small area where we laid down some pavers so that we could set out a little plastic table/chairs during the summer. Not exactly ideal for entertaining. For the past couple of years we have wanted to build a deck and enjoy the […]

Watch CBS Videos Online Yesterday morning while watching the CBS early show I watched an interesting segment on the rise of High-Heels with increasing heel heights. Many designers now have 5″-6″ heels that are becoming best sellers. Apparently during times of recession women tend to buy higher heels to feel more powerful and better about […]

Hard times call for High-Heels

What a perfect excuse to eat candy for breakfast, lunch and dinner! I’m in trouble when I get home, because my darling husband wanted to be the cool house that had full size candy bars. So, if I don’t get much traffic it’s going to be me and a whole bunch of Hershey’s.

Must have

Image via Paris Hotel Boutique About a year ago I feel in love with vintage Feed Sacks. I had never really thought much of them until I saw them on Oprah’s Knock, knock, it’s Nate! Design contest. One of the runner ups, Kirstin Hollister, designed her house using her recent 3 year stint abroad in […]

Feeding my design style

You’re eyes are not playing tricks on you. I can’t figure out what I want my blog template to look like so I’ve been playing with numerous color choices. Don’t mind me while I figure out what I like.

If you’ve seen Father of the Bride (One of my favorite movies) then you will totally get what I am refering to in my title. If you haven’t then run do not walk to your nearest rental store or Nexflix and view this film. Times are tough and with the holidays coming up I have […]

The cheaper chicken

Today’s weather has been horrid in the NY area. It started raining at 5am this morning and it has continued through out the day. It was a day best to stay snuggled up in bed watching one Lifetime movie after another. (I know I can’t be the only one that get’s sucked in) Since staying […]

ON THE BLOG

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.

Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.

On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
