snow day & my new treat.......
well folks .......me and my monday morning treat got our wires crossed........ oops! So....... we will have to take a rain check on the fabulous guest post I had lined up for you!
I do however have something fun to share on this snowy , cold monday morning here in the south......
I had these sweet little cities in my {things I'm loving} section last week and I couldn't resist them any longer!! I made a purchase and I can't wait to perch my little city on either the orange cabinet in my bedroom or the shelves in the den..... hmmmm...big decision friends....
Hope you have a fabulous monday! xo
friday froth

I have an exciting guest blogger for Monday that I know you all will enjoy and lots more fun lined up for next week so ..... have a wonderful weekend ......see ya soon! xoxo
patchy fog......
this has been the month for nurseries .... which I'm just pleased as punch about because if you know me well at all I am the baby freak! Love them and want to eat them!
I just finished this chest for "baby v" ..... my client miss "C" already knew what she wanted when she came to me {woo hoo}... she picked out the color and the papers and the knobs ..... and I just completely executed her ideas! I also painted a beautiful twin bed to match this dresser for when wee one is ready to move into her "big girl bed".
Thank you so much "C" for entrusting me with such an important project! I had so much fun with this! xo
i did something sneaky today over at design sponge...
when grace first asked me to consider doing a sneak peek for D*s I totally chickened out and freaked out and all that goes along with that...... but when she asked again I figured I needed to get over myself and share! The home is so personal, it's like putting your heart out there for every one to see....... I hope you all enjoy seeing mine and learning more about me through what I find important enough to surround myself with everyday.
Thank you so much grace... you have been a source of encouragement and support that I can never thank you enough for! xo
whole new attitude......
Well friends, here is the first of the furniture production for this month. This piece is part of a nursery that I am working on with my friend Teresa as the designer. Our client "miss L" inherited all of the furniture that I'm painting from her grandmother {two twin beds, this dresser and a nightstand} and it has been sitting in the attic awaiting its moment. "L" wanted to go with a forest theme {strictly NO pastels}...... so I went with this combo which I think is very sweet and foresty!!
I have also commissioned miss mollie from royal buffet to make a custom mobile for over the crib, incorporating some forest animals and such goodness..... I can't wait to see that! I will show you the whole room before and after when we are done ..... it is going to be something else I tell ya!
I hope you have an amazing Wednesday and I have more goodies for you tomorrow and Friday! xoxo
book cushions
I totally stumbled across these on etsy and think they are the coolest! I mean come on....... book cushions!! I think every book needs a cushion to lean on. Pure goodness friends ... pure goodness! xoxo
