Reviving Roadside Finds
I am loving these looks right now... apparently I am ALL about the COLOR this week! 🙂 Not sure where the photos came from, I've just shimmied them into the "inspiration" folder on my desktop over the past week. Notice a common theme (other than color) going on here? All of these items would make... Continue Reading →
Maybe I'm a little dramatic, but this blue pine table from One Kings Lane is the stuff I dream about at night! The vintage-y goodness of the shape, the colors, the chippy paint... okay, I'm drooling. Even better? It's on clearance!!! I love it so so much, but unfortunately am not on the market for... Continue Reading →
Remember my post about knowing when to quit? Apparently I don't. And that's not always a bad thing. Here's a picture of the dining set finally finished (and I'm so, so happy with it!!!)

All about the brights is right. These babies came from the "Free" section on Craigslist (you may also recognize them stuffed into the car on the "Prius Problems" post.) This picture gives you a good idea of how much difference some color can make. I'm still debating putting a coat of lacquer on the chairs.... Continue Reading →
The fastest way to combat winter blues? Add bright hues to your life (and living space!) Joss and Main has an "energizing hues" sale today, and these are a few of my favorite items: The fastest way to change the look of your space is by changing throw pillows or wall art. It's really an... Continue Reading →
If you're anything like me, you can scroll through sites for hours and hours to find inspiration. Wait, is that only me?Mayyybe I'm a bit obsessed.
