A Year Ago Today
A year ago today I was in LA attending the Design Bloggers Conference. What an amazing experience I had making new friends, listening to fabulous speakers, and learning tons of wonderful information! I decided not to attend this year’s conference (it’s going on right now!). Instead I’m utilizing the information gained from last year’s conference Read More

Real vs. Faux Plants
When decorating a room, plants are a wonderful touch! They’re green (which you know I love), they add texture, and life if they are real! However, using “faux” plants can actually provide the same touches if they actually look real, and that is the key… In the kitchen, there is a mixture…the terrarium sits on the Read More
Tuesday’s Tip: Watering Orchids
Growing orchids are still new to me. I first posted about orchids here. I referred to them as “dancing flowers.” They are lean, graceful, and their blooms are magnificent (although no blooms as of yet!). I currently have 3 in the living room… And I water them with ice cubes! Apparently, they enjoy a nice Read More
