Crepe Myrtle or Crape Myrtle (depends on who you ask)! “Miami” bloom above. This white one is a ”Natchez”. I have a two tone one – half of it is white the other purple. I thought it was an all white one which I put in my white garden. Surprise!! A few years later I started getting purple blooms! Now it’s mostly purple since the white part hangs over the veggie garden and I keep those branches ... Read More about Sunday Photo Feature

Loving The Home You Have

Hi everyone! I had planned on showing you some bedroom photos today but I want to share with you my master bathroom because this topic of loving the home you have has been on my mind for days. It all began when my husband I were watching “House Hunters” and “Property Virgins”. First there was the couple who said they had to change out the gold rimmed shower stall “right away” if they ...

My Foyer – Tiny But Cute!

My foyer is really small but I've tried to make it cute! I finished painting my new railing in the foyer and made a few other little changes so I thought I’d give you a tour of what I’ve done so far. Below is the old railing. It was wood on top of metal. Yuck -not my style at all! Here’s my new wood railing. Now painted black with white spindles. Looooove it sooooo much! I know it’s ...
