There are a few little things that bug me about my house and when I decided that this was the "Year of the Home Makeover", I also decided to tackle a few of those things. The not too involved- not too expensive things! One thing that always bugged me was this knee wall we built (photo below) when we first moved in. It originally had your typical 1960's split-foyer railing when we bought the ... Read More about Changes To My Foyer = Typography Wall

Dressing Up Your Home for Valentines Day
We are not hugely into Valentine's Day but I do like to acknowledge the different seasons and holidays and make them special for my family. So I do a little something for almost all the major holidays. You may have noticed a few VDay things sprinkled here and there in various recent posts. Like these XO letters. These are cardboard letters from Michael's that I decoupaged with toile ... Read More about Dressing Up Your Home for Valentines Day

One of the reasons we chose to relocate to Georgia from NJ was the fabulously long growing season (and the lovely weather in general). Look how lovely this camellia is right now. But I was never really able to take advantage of the mild winters as far as growing vegetables was concerned. I had tried many times and failed each time.
