3 minute, no-sew bolster pillow cover

I was working this weekend on my guest room, getting it ready for a photo shoot. I was in a bit of a crunch, because of some unexpected delays, so I wasn’t able to put this room together in a leisurely way. The mattress was delivered and I had to put the room together in two […]
the winner of the debate

If you’re up to speed on my living room, you know that I have been pondering taking down the curtains in the living and dining room. Yesterday, after this photo shoot, I took them down… The sunlight poured in and it was so bright and wonderful. I was convinced that I would go drape-free. […]
updating the living room

It’s been a tough week to get into a groove for me. On Monday, we took the boys to Hershey Park to squeeze some fun into the last days of summer. The boys were home on Tuesday, which was a day filled with cleaning, laundry, packing book bags and getting ready to start the school […]

So, it’s a constant […]
rugs are my nemesis

When decorating a room, I really struggle with area rugs. I’m sure that was evident in my family room… Yeah, I know. I still love those rugs, but they just weren’t working.

curtains or no curtains

Yes, that is the question. Curtains or no curtains? I’ve been thinking of changing the curtains in my living and dining room for a while. When we put our house on the market, we decided to let the curtains convey with the house. I love the curtain fabric still, but I’m ready for a change. […]
