Happy Monday! And yes it is indeed a happy one because I'm off today and plan to keep myself entertained with thrifting, crafting and some fun. We had a busy weekend so here is quick recap in photos. From top left, down, here are the highlights from our weekend. I spy avocados in our yard. DIY simple planter on display. A Midcentury dresser has been found. Wine and lots of it. Herringbone fun at Target. Dogs are the best. And so are cats. Doggy pushpins are a … [Read more...]
tuesday crush – terrazzo floors
I'm so relaxed and recharged after a random Monday off. Having a whole day to myself let me catch up on my house projects, a couple of crafts and some thrifting felt great. I even came home with some goodies I will share soon! Recently, it seems we've been talking about the houses we put offers on before this one. It took us a really long time to find this place and during our search we put offers on three houses that we ended up losing to bidding wars or stupid bank circumstances. Not that … [Read more...]
bloggy olympics outdoor event – simple diy planter
Happy weekend everyone! I'm thankful I made it to Saturday with enough energy to have some fun this weekend. We had a crazy storm on Wednesday morning which knocked out our power before 5am. It felt like a test run hurricane so I'm glad we started prepping the house recently for the season. At least the power was back on by the time I came home from work. I've been looking forward to today for awhile. It is time to kick off the final week of the Bloggy Olympics! This week is all about the … [Read more...]

You know when life gets away from your and you can't seem to get a handle on things? Isn't it great, when you get back into your normal routine? Even if it takes awhile and the whole time leading up to it sucks, once you fall back into that routine, everything sort of falls into place again and you feel great. I'm back. And Tuesday Crush is back, too! Maybe I'm just daydreaming about bathroom renovations but I'm obsessed with shaped tiles right now. I don't know how long some of these trends … [Read more...]
blue skies ahead – robin’s egg blue porch ceiling
Hope you all had a lovely weekend! We had lots of fun with good friends and managed to tackle a decent amount of house projects too, which to me equals a great weekend! No surprise that HGTV and DIY Network are probably my favorite channels so they are usually on in the background even if I'm not watching them. I think it was on House Hunters (or something like that) I heard that on certain islands Caribbean they paint porch ceilings shades of blue to ward away bad spirits. It got in my head … [Read more...]
downfalls of florida living – hurricane preparations
So while many of you might strongly dislike me during the winter months while I’m posting pictures of the sunny outdoor projects I’m working on, this is the time of year you are happy that you are not my neighbor - hurricane season is here! June 1st marked the arrival of my least favorite time of the year and we must deal with it through November 30th. Hurricanes have been a recurring theme with my relationship with Ray. We went on our first date in 2001 because my class had been cancelled … [Read more...]
