This post has been in my drafts for mooooooonths. That means a long time! For some reason, I just kept feeling like it wasn’t enough. I needed to put together a cohesive and completed design before this would be ready to post and that’s just not the case! These Decorating Dilemma posts aren’t about me working as an interior designer … Read More

In this Decorating Dilemma, we’re going to take a look at Savannah’s soon-to-be kitchen.

do you have a decorating dilemma?
Do you remember my Decorating Dilemma series? About once a month, I would share a reader’s decorating dilemma and some possible suggestions and solutions. It was one of those things that I enjoyed, but I went through a busy season (probably getting ready for Lucketts or something), neglected it, and then forgot all about it!

This squared-shaped dining room has been a little tricky to figure out, but I think I’m getting a little closer. The primitive blue hutch has felt wrong from the beginning, but it’s what I had and I needed time to live in the space and think about it before I bought anything new or made any big decisions.

Butler’s Pantry Plans
Before I share about the butler’s pantry, I wanted to give everyone a head’s up that my latest round of paintings are for sale and the auctions end today. You can view and bid on the paintings HERE.

That means I need to hunker down and start working on colorways for the second collection again. I’m so excited that Bunnies Birds & Blooms will be available, but I’m even more excited … Read More
