back on track

it has been a busy time taking care of my little one but it has been wonderful. i have finally gotten my little sunshine on a schedule and finally sleeping in her crib... therefore i have a little me time to update you on what's new... well besides our sunshine, i am back to making our house a home... i finally did a little wish list of how i would like our living room to look and now working to get each item... i already have the sectional and curtains, so now i need to work on everything else.... i hope to be finish with everything by the end of the year, so keep checking back for the finished product.....

break time

taking a little break to tend to my little one

it's bath time...

not only am i working on our mystery room but i am also working on the bathroom for the mystery room and my good friend B emailed me this picture for a little inspiration... and it's quite an inspiration... it's exactly the feel i want, airy and fresh... pics to come soon...

the gallery is open

as you can see i have been working very hard in crossing of a few items on my husband's to do list (back in 08), we (he) finally got the gallery wall completed and i must say i am very impressed with his work.... you say what?

this was my inspiration... and though i didn't use as many frames or the same ones, the key was making one big square shape and keeping the frames within the square so everything has a uniformed look... the mystery room is coming along wonderfully, stay toned for pics...

one night stand

not only am i working on the mystery room but i am also working on our master bedroom as well. it's been so hard trying to decide on a night stand but i think i have narrowed it down. picture number two was my first choice, i love the elegance and simplicity of this night stand but i really wanted it to have a draw (to put my chap stick and nightly reading materials in). but once i saw night stand number one, i immediately knew it was a match, for both of us. it's more versatile. since my husband and i share an office and i was yearning for my own office, i thought the setup above would be perfect with the bench underneath. so i am heading out to the furniture store today in search of the perfect one night stand...

everyone is doing it and so am i

hello, as you can see i have been busy working on the mystery room.... and the trend these days are stripes.... so i have decided to jump on the band wagon.... i just ordered two pillowcases (pictured above) from pottery barn (they were on sale $22.99....score)! the plan for one set is to cover with a bench for the mystery room and the other set will be on the bed.... i choose stripes (not just because my good friend Brenda told me to) because i like the added pattern it brings to the room and the airy feel it gives.... plans are finally coming together and i can't wait until you see it....

keeping the beauty

is it possible to have a headboard this beautiful and continue to keep it this beautiful?
