  17. chittychittybangkok says:

    I love when one blog I read features another blog I read…small world moments just choke me up in the nicest way! Oh, and that black table's shininess makes my heart do cartwheels. Someday I WILL be in NC and I WILL see all the glory in person.

    Hi–I wanted to drop by to say thanks for the sweet comment on my blog. I am loving your series "In Her Shoes". And I love I Suwanee and getting to peek into her day was just so cool.

    Can you please let me know what brand/coloiur you used for the turquois coffee table show on this page. The coffee table looks fabulous — I’ve been wanting to do mine for a long time. Mine has a glass top and look a little like yours. Thanks for your time

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.

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 […]
