Furniture Feature Friday – Favorites and Link Party
I woke up this morning (snuggled under my duvet, lingering as long as I could), planning to work on more custom ornament orders and getting a lot of things checked off my to do list. Plans changed. My hot glue gun has been cold all day and not one piece of sheet music has been […]
Preserving Fall’s Bounty
My seasonal decorating is all out of order. I have been working on Christmas stuff since September and now I’m working on my fall decor for next year! HGTV.com has me writing several holiday decor tutorials for them and I need to work on the ones that require fresh pumpkins and the great outdoors before the […]
The Change
All moms (and dads) out there who love decorating their home know about “the change.” It’s what happens to your house when you bring kids into the equation. I’ve always been a neat freak and I was determined to stay one when I first learned I was pregnant. I was not going to have a house […]
Chartreuse Christmas Preview
Chartreuse (and our space there) is getting all decked out for the holidays. Lynette and I spent the afternoon primping our booth and donning it with holiday decor. In addition to furniture and non-holiday accessories, the place is filling up with greenery, lights, ornaments, and trees. Sniff. Yes, I even managed to bring my French settee […]

French Settee Makeover
Alright, all of you Francophiles out there…sit down, take a deep breath and look at this baby… Remember what she looked like a few days ago? Things don’t look too bad in this picture, but the fabric was worn and the finish was a dated blonde/pickled sort of wood. I removed all of the upholstery […]
Christmas Ornament Pricing
I’ve had so many requests for pricing on my Christmas line, so I’m going to put it “out there.” If you want to buy something, just send me an e-mail with your order and your zip code. I will package your order and charge you through Pay Pal (or you can mail a personal check.) […]
Furniture Feature Friday – A Favorite and Link Party
Hey girls. Well, I’m pooped. You saw how much I accomplished yesterday and today was busy as well. I spent about five hours out hunting for new treasures to bring to Chartreuse and Wild Rose. I came home with a van stuffed full of goodies. Ironstone, a couple of cabinets, a drafting table, an industrial wooden […]
