That’s what you’ll find in this fascinating English kitchen by deVOL kitchens. Warm wood floors create the foundation for this bespoke…
Today for Style Showcase we’ve got three home tours for you (one of which was torn down), along with garden tool tips.

We’re back to Alexandria on the blog today to see a fine collection of historic doors that you’re sure to love – especially if you’re a bit of a history buff. No two doors are alike and most are a bit ornate or are painted a fun color. I don’t know why they don’t typically…

This week has been rather uneventful which is good for unwinding and destressing. Not that I’m feeling stressed though.
