Whenever I tour Kelly’s home at The LilyPad Cottage, my spirits are immediately lifted and I’m put in a good mood. Her home is bright, beautiful, and livable. Kelly’s a lucky girl because her home is situated lakeside. You’ll see a beach theme reflected throughout her decor and I know you’ll find it such a…
When I look back on my years of home ownership and apartment renting, I realize that there is one decorating staple that’s remained consistent in my life. Flowers. Pink, purple, yellow … it doesn’t matter what color. Having flower arrangements in the home is a sure way to perk up a room and lift the…

Spring is the season of pastels … soft color, soft sunlight, and the wakening of the world from its slumber. The faint hues of spring prepare us for the riotous smorgasboard of colors in the summer. I love spring and everything about it! Even the gentle rains that freshen the earth. An annual springtime ritual of…

Today’s charming home tour is a little different, but still inspirational. I kinda screwed up my own schedule and didn’t have a blogger’s home for today. I have a calendar and everything, so it was just oversight on my part. But have no fear … I have an adorable Florida beach cottage for you to…
Words cannot express my excitement about today’s charming home tour!

When I started this Charming Home Series of beautiful home tours, I knew that JoAnne at A Pocketful of Blue would be one of the features. I’ve been reading her blog ever since I started blogging myself. We share a love for the color blue … especially when it’s paired with white. Her home embraces…
This summer we’re working more on the outside of our house, which includes painting it … ugh! But I’m also lending a critical eye to our garden spaces. I’ve always wanted a cottage style garden … you know, that riotous floral look with foxgloves stretching high and daisies spilling out of a picket fence. So…
Summer is all about color and fun and I’ve been attempting to infuse these two elements into my home room by room. Although I love white I have to admit I’m enjoying a few jolts of color. As part of today’s “Fun in the Sun” blog hop with 10 other bloggers, I decided to share…

While we were getting 10 inches of snow outside, I was fluffing the living room with a few touches of spring. The longer days are cheering my spirits despite the fact that Old Man Winter is hangin’ on for dear life. I brought in a few greens and changed the arrangement on the shelf above…
