Save Some Green
Everything in my shop is 20% off today! If you’ve had your eye on some stationery, the new pocket mirrors, or anything else, today would be a great day to head on over to Pink Loves Brown.
Offer ends midnight CST 03.17.08. Cannot be combined with any other offer.
Amy Butler Fabric in the Dining Room
Looks pretty good.
Ritzy Stripe (the zigzags) on the chairs, and Primrose (the other fabric) for curtains? It’s lacking some ‘oomph’ though. Maybe that wall color is too dark.
I wish those zigzags came in hot pink. Or pink and aubergine!
He’s Home Early
He’s not feeling well though. One of the dogs at the shelter had Parvo, but there was also another virus going around. Our puppy has an upper respiratory infection (we have to give him antibiotics), but all we can do is hope that’s all he has. The shelter thought he would be [...]
At the Back Door
Brandon setup a little area near the back door for our coats and shoes (and a leash too).
This is where the stairs are that lead down to the basement, right next to the back door in the kitchen.
The hooks and shelves only cost about $15 total (from IKEA). We should have done this a [...]

IKEA Excursion
I finally went out to the DMV to update my address (it’s only been a little over a year – what’s the hurry?). Well it was a lot easier and faster than I thought it would be, I didn’t have to rush back to work on anything, and I was already halfway to IKEA…
First, [...]
Rearranging the Dining Room Hutch
This is what the hutch looks like right now:
And this was it before:
When I took everything out and laid it all on the table, it looked a little like my own personal flea market. It was fun to choose what would make it back in.
The fabric that I tacked to the back of the [...]
Home Cute Home (Again)
Last month, I wrote about pve design and showed the illustration of my home that Patricia had done. Well, I’ve been meaning to follow up because when it arrived I was pleasantly surprised to see that it was even more beautiful in person!
Careful attention had been paid to the packaging too.
Isn’t it lovely?
(Thanks again, [...]
