Friday Finds

The other day, I found a really cute outdoor bench surrounded by flowers for my daydream spot post. At the time, I also found a very cute bench for my backyard that looks like a true mason created specifically for my space. The bench below is made of stones and wood and I’d love to […]

Set a Formal Mood with a Piano

A piano not only fills a room with beautiful music but also with beautiful design. It’s important to always have the piano on display and not hide it in a corner amongst old, dusty books and blankets. I am always dusting mine and keeping it shiny. It’s nice to have beautiful flowers on top or maybe […]

Unifying a Room with an Area Rug

An area rug can make or break a room. It ties the space together with size, shape and colors. If the rug is too small or the wrong colors or pattern, then it can break the room. There are many rules out there such as to have the furniture all on the rug or all […]

Colorful Mondays {daisies}

When I think of daisies, I first think of the common ones, Bellis perennis, with white petals and yellow centers. Second, I think of the Gerbera Daisies which are much larger and more colorful. They bloom in almost any color. I love them. Well, I found an abundance of plants that belong to the daisy […]

Looking at Window Treatments

When I’m decorating my house, I really get stuck when it comes to the windows. They bring in all the light and are such a focal point. I’m afraid that if I use the wrong treatment, then I could block a ton of light or my eye will ignore the rest of the room and […]

This week, I have been shopping for summer-themed accessories. I don’t have a boat, but it’s fun to dress as if I do during the summer months! The accessories […]

Parisian Dreams

As I scrolled down my Facebook news feed, a post from the lovely blog, Decor 8, jumped out at me. The post mentioned a blog named The Socialite Family which is a French/English site devoted to creative families. C’est chouette! It includes interviews with various stylish families and photos of their homes. Now I’m sitting here […]
