White Wax Tutorial

This summer has been a little nutty for me, so I haven’t had to chance to do as much painting as I would like. I’m really looking forward to school starting, so I can get back into a groove and get in my workshop a bit more often. Since I have been so swamped, one […]
Decor Steals Giveaway – THE bamboo mat

The item being featured as the “steal of the day” at Decor Steals today is so hot that you may want to go over and buy it before reading this post! I have a feeling they will sell out fast, since one of my FAQ’s is, “Where did you get the mat/rug in your dining room?” […]
Furniture Feature Friday – Favorites & a Link Party
August is a crazy month for me. I kicked it off with Haven, now I’m in North Carolina for the Becoming Conference and then we’re off to Arizona and Colorado. FFF will still be happening, but you’ll have to hang in there with me if I miss it or can’t pick favorites one week. I […]

Back to School Shopping at Kohl’s

Whenever I need some clothes, I head over to Kohl’s. When my husband needs clothes, we go to Kohl’s. When the kids need clothes…you guessed it. It’s sort of a given. We have the Kohl’s card, we get the coupons and they carry brands I really like. (I always make a beeline for the Simply […]
A little more of the master bathroom…

You know how it is… Traveling, craziness, busy, not enough sleep, over stimulated, all of that stuff. Yeah, I’m feeling it. I just finished Haven and, instead of flying home, I flew into Richmond to help my mom with some family stuff. So, I’m in for a couple of days of hard work before I […]
