So I finally finished my mini checkerboard quilt I was making for our bedroom, but when I went to take some pictures of it to share on here today, I realized that I haven’t posted about our new bed! We bought a new (to us) king size bed off of Craigslist for $100 (4 years […]
I just finished and hung a fresh linen towel on the oven! I’m proud of how it turned out - a little embroidery, a little fabric print, and I have a new pre-spring towel to look at every day. It matches our kitchen perfectly.
It was really a super simple project. The linen towel is a […]
For Valentine’s Day this year, I decided to surprise Nathan by making over “his” bathroom — the half bath in our master — while he was out of town Saturday night. It is a tiny little room, with just a sink and commode. Before I took it over, there was literally nothing special going on in there. […]
Remember this picture, when I was planning on making over my bedroom from blah yellow-beige to light blue and red?
Well - it’s basically done! Except for the mini wall quilt I’d like to finish and the new rug I’m probably not going to get, I’m all set in our new room. Here is the before:

I’m home from work today, feeling sorry for myself today as I try to rest through this gross cold I seem to have caught. I figured I’d take the opportunity to pay some attention to my poor, neglected little blog. Baby steps, though - I’m about ready for a nap!
The other night I was laying […]
Lots of recent happenings I have to show off! First of all, I have to make you jealous by linking to my photoset of pictures from the Country Living Fair in Columbus, Ohio. It was absolutely fantastic - my second year to go, the weather was 20 times better and the vendors were great. A […]
Yesterday, Nathan and I finally made our third annual wedding celebration trip to our favorite little antique store on the square in Fayetteville, Tennessee - His and Hers Antiques. We stopped there on our honeymoon in 2007, visited for our anniversary last year, and hit it up yet again for a new sign and some […]
I confess, I’m a bad blogger. Seems like we’ve had so much going on the last month that I have kept putting off updates, and now it’s been far too long to make excuses! So sorry.
BUT - I do have something fun to share with you! You may or may not have seen pictures of […]
Yesterday, our house was as clean as it’s been in a long while because I was hosting a little Pampered Chef get-together. So after everyone left, I took advantage of the empty, clean house to take some pictures. You can see them on flickr here. But what I am most excited about is pictures of […]
I came home from work today feeling really inspired, and desperately wanted to work on a project with instant satisfaction. I started digging around in my stash for something quick and dirty to whip up — and now have a set of fun cafe curtains over my computer desk in the craft room:
I’m happy with […]
