Feature Friday

Well Hello Everyone!

It has been a very LOOOOOOOOOOONG time since I have posted let alone do a Feature Friday post.

Today I am doing another series on

"Rooms to Love" focusing on Fall decorating.

I usually begin my fall decorating over Labor Day weekend. Although our temps are still summery and warm, the mornings have been cooling down quite a bit here in Northern PA.

Enjoy!

Lantern Love

I know it has been awhile since my last post but, I wanted to share some great ideas of using lanterns in your holiday decore.

We all know that lanterns are making a Hugh hit in the home. They are everywhere so it seems and while looking around on Pinterest, I am seeing TONS of holiday decor and naturally lots of

Lanterns!

So let's take a peek at some great decorating ideas using lanterns.

Feature Friday

Do you ever have those "blog" moments when you're just at a lost as to what to even blog about any more?

I guess I have been in a "blog" moment for awhile. I haven't really done any changes around the house (other than rearranging), there have been no major "Ah Ha!" moments and even new ideas have been amidst.

However; I appreciate those who follow me, so I wanted to share the random things that I have been thinking about these past few weeks.

I have been wanting to paint our guest room and our room for the longest time. But, I have had so many different moods that I have been putting it off. I believe I am ready.

I am thinking shades of whites and creams and possibly some steel blue accents in our room??

I believe because we are in between seasons, I have so many things in my mind to do. When the seasons begin to ~~transmission~~ (OPPS!) transition, it makes me want to start decorating for fall, my favorite yard sale adventure is soon upon me (August 11) and yes, I am even dreaming up ideas for Christmas. I know, let's enjoy summer for all it offers but, it's at this time of year that I start brainstorming my ideas, I begin to crave warmth and coziness, yummy smells and great home cooking!

I am also looking forward to an addition to my design business. I have been presented with a great opportunity and it should fall into place by the first part of September. This I am very excited about!

I'll share more later.

So that is what has been on my mind.

Do you find it difficult to focus sometimes? Are there things you want to see completed before fall? What are your up-coming plans for the holiday season(s)?

Changing Again . . . ?

Making Changes in the foyer . . . this time I have moved the cabinet that has been in out living room to the foyer and since ~~there is an alternative motive behind this~~ this is something I have often thought about trying, I decide to give it a go.

Take a peek . . .
