L’amour fait tourner le monde… (It’s love that makes the world go around).
There is something especially sweet about your first Valentine’s Day as a married couple… Life is wonderfully wonderful for me lately. Lots of changes are on the horizon - I will be sure to update you in the very near future. 
In the meantime, wishing you all a magical day of love.

I recently added “The King’s Speech” to my collection of DVD’s. It has been a few years since I first saw the movie, and I had forgotten just how good it was. Once again, my favorite character of the film was the Therapy Room. Here is a link to my original post on this one of a kind space. (I apologize my links’ are not linking neatly as of late).

Yes Treehouse Masters, I’m talking to you. If you haven’t already caught an episode, Treehouse Masters is a fantastic fun show on Animal Planet. With new episodes airing Friday nights at 10pm E/P, you can often catch earlier episodes running back to back during the week.
For someone with a passion for design/architecture as well as a profound connection to Mother Nature, this show is beyond entertaining. The cast/crew may be loveable and a bit quirky, but the true star are the magical treehouses themselves. I particularly love how each is unique from the rest and situated so perfectly among the trees.
But you don’t have to take my word for it - just see for yourself.
2013 was a year of love and celebration for me as I marked two major life accomplishments - getting married and buying my first house. Day 2 of 2014, I already feel that there is something different about this year. I’m not quite sure if it’s a new sense of determination, the evolution of my own self-awareness, or simply a matter of being another year older/wiser. Whatever the case may be, I greet this day and year with optimism, enthusiasm, and purpose.
Wishing you all a very happy new year!

As the name implies, Thanksgiving brings a collective experience of gratitude. This Christmas I am overwhelmed with a powerful sense of love…

(Holy cow, is it really Thanksgiving already?!)
What an incredible year it has been. Today I am thankful for …
… my patient and clever husband… my hilarious, beloved family… for the courage to run my own business… for awesome clients and supportive business partners who keep me in business… for the ability to laugh at myself… for the power of choice… for sweet cats with big personalities… for an appetite to learn and grow… for a creative mind… for beautiful things… for flavored coffee… crockpot meals… chocolate anything… for Masterpiece Theater (PBS is amazing!), New Girl, SYTYCD, and Duck Dynasty… for Paul Simon, Ani Difranco, Mumford & Sons, and Bonnie Raitt… for my adorable, work-in-progress house… and for caffeinated bursts of productivity…
Wishing you all a very happy day!
For the last several months I have been busy with a very special project. In this situation, we are updating the old farmhouse my client grew up in. First on the To Do List: redesign the bedrooms for two little girls (ages 9 and 7). This was a fun and unique opportunity for me to play in the world of COOL and CUTE. Here are couple snapshots for your viewing pleasure.
But the fun doesn’t stop there! The 2nd floor hall and dual stairways received a major transformation as well. Stay tuned for more images to follow.
Window treatment is a term to describe how one decorates or covers their window. The image of a curtain or some piece of fabric hung above or around a window may have come to mind for many of you. Not only will I select ready-made curtains for my budget conscious clients, but I design custom treatments as well.
Window treatment can also refer to shades, blinds, shutters and the like. Often times it is the thoughtful combination or layering of both types of treatments that create the best solutions.
That being said, I am very pleased to share that I am now a dealer of Graber window treatments! While Graber may not have the name recognition of Hunter Douglas, they provide quality options at reasonable prices. This will allow me to serve my clients thoroughly and efficiently.

Happy Halloween everyone
Some time has passed since I’ve done much Pinning. My Pinterest consumption got a little out of control back in the days of wedding planning. Now that I’ve had a respectable break, I thought it wouldn’t hurt to explore some seasonal imagery. All good things in moderation, right?
How will you be decorating for the fall this year?
