I needed Faith

I had a little idea a few months ago. It was just an idea to have milk paint colors I loved in cute packaging. I kicked that idea over to Homestead House Paint Co. and they thought it sounded like a good idea. Well, I announced this little idea on my blog and it has […]
The Bagster Bag Pickup

I don’t know about you, but cleaning out our basement seems to be an ongoing effort. A few weeks ago, though, we made a big push to get everything really cleaned out. We’re still working on the organization and, of course, it doesn’t help that I continually bring in new stuff and we’re […]
KK Children Designs Giveaway!

**This giveaway is now closed** Boy, everyone. I am so sorry for missing Furniture Feature Friday this week. I can’t believe I missed my own party! It was simply a matter of me totally forgetting what day of the week it was. I’m really hoping with the fall and a regular school/work schedule will come […]

I was shopping my house for the perfect […]
the furniture shuffle

messy home, chippy chair, healthy food

Well, I did it again. I took the weekend off and it was much needed. Last week, especially towards the end was really insane. For the other photo shoots done in my home, I popped into a few pictures, but it was pretty minimal. For this shoot, I had a stylist for my hair and […]
French Charmed Giveaway!

A few months ago, I received some beautiful paper from one of my sponsors, French Charmed. I don’t normally get all swoony over paper, but this stuff is gorgeous. The French Script Paper is almost like vellum with beautiful writing and a design similar to a ledger. And guess what? They’re going to give a roll […]
