Some Sneak Peeks of the House and a Giveaway

July 31, 2018 By Shirley

I must say, things have been a bit hectic around here lately.

Our move, then a trip the very next day after closing on the house . . .

my mom here for a visit this past week . . . and we traveling back to Georgia

to take her back home where she lives with my brother and my sister-in-law.

Needless to say that there has been little time for posting, social media,

unpacking and organizing. My days have been very long.

Today, I want to give you some sneak peeks of the house and a giveaway from me.

But first here are some sneak peeks!

A Vignette Inspired By A Beautiful Book, My High-Low Project

May 18, 2017 By Shirley

I love beautiful home decor books.

I came across this book, “Beautiful” by Mark D. Sikes

while reading a review on it by the lovely ladies of Design Chic.

I ordered this book right away and was totally immersed in the magnificent

rooms and decor featured in his book.

While reading this book, I came across a vignette on a skirted table

that I knew I could somewhat replicate on a budget, by actually shopping the house.

So I began to collect those items and I created

a vignette inspired by a Beautiful book, my High Low project.
