Before I launch into the most visited posts for this year, I wanted to acknowledge the recent issues with my site. I’ve gotten lots of emails and messages about your computer ‘locking up’ when you try to load the site and then not being able to view it or your browser shutting down. If [...]

The half bath on the main level is tiny and I’ve thought of nearly every possible option for making the tiny space shine.

After three years of pitiful neglect, I finally updated my ‘about’ page. It’s now the longest ‘about’ page in the history of mankind. But it’s also full of photos, so that eases the pain somewhat! And now, for the wreath…….. My jaw dropped the first time I saw the snowball wreath from Anthropologie. It’s [...]
