TGIF

Tomorrow is the last Paris Street Market at Aspen Grove until May!  I am so bummed but at the same time I am super excited to spend the morning there with my mom and my oldest daughter Casey.  I can't wait to see what kind of finds I come home with this time!

Remember to keep an open mind and I am sure you will find some fabulous treasures!

Pinterest

There is this website called Pinterest and I am completely addicted to it.  I literally could spend a couple hours a day checking out all of the great ideas for food, design, fashion, etc.  I have 15 boards already and I have no idea how many more I will end up with!  You can create whatever boards you want and pin from whatever website too!  Here are a few of my favorite pinterest finds, I wish I could put them all on but if you login than you can see all of my favorites!

White Kitchens

I used to think of white kitchens as being sterile like a hospital, but then I went to my friends house who is an amazing Interior Designer and she has a gorgeous white kitchen!  I could not have been more wrong about my interpretations of a white kitchen! 



Both of these kitchens belong to Megan Kane of M Street Denver.  The first two are of her old house and the last is her current home.  I feel so comfortable sitting at her island and chatting with a drink. 

Here are a few more white kitchens that I have found and love.

Fall Fashion

So Mother Nature is not being very agreeable to my wishes!  I am truly ready for the fall weather and I am getting summer instead!  The mornings and the evenings are chilly so here are some cute fall outfits that work for those crisp mornings and evenings and those hot fall days

Black

I love black, I wear it probably a little too much!   I have a lot of black accents throughout my home.  It does not make a room look dark and cave like as long as its done right.  It creates drama in a room whether you use it as an accent or as a main color.  Here is what I am talking about:

Autumn

Today is the first day of fall, and that begins my favorite time of year!  Sadly it's going to feel more like summer through the weekend but maybe some of these things will put me in the spirit and take me back to  some of my favorite times of crisp fall days.

The Forgotten Wall

Ceilings, the forgotten wall.  Who says that ceilings have to be white or even the same colors as you walls?  Why not add some fabulous detail to it whether it be architectual or decorative.  Remember it does not have to be costly, DIY projects are great money savers!

Baby, Baby, Baby

I love babies and I love decorating baby nurseries!  My girls are growing up so quickly that sometimes I just need to think about baby rooms since there is absolutley 100% no chance I will have any more kids!  I would love to get the chance to design a nursery though!
