tuesday tease {interior design}





Who doesn't love a good tease... I sure do {wink}! These images inspire me to add fun and bright colors in my interior design! Adding classic style with a touch of color can bring a room alive. Wake up!  Don't get me wrong I love soft and subtle design... But, it doesn't hurt to tease the room with a little silent sass! Shhhhh That's what I'm all about!

happy sunday...


The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.’ Now I have told you. - Matthew 28: 5-7   

* Happy Easter *

oh what a day




Hello my blogger friends... Today is Good Friday, the Friday before Jesus Christ was nailed to the cross, and the 1 year anniversary of my fathers passing! WOW, a lot to take into today for me and my family... I'm not a very religious person, but after my fathers passing I've been drawn closer to my religion than ever. Some will understand, and some won't... And that's OK!  I'm not a preacher so I will leave it at that... But I do believe!!! Stronger than ever! 

On a more pretty pastel note... I love this pallet! It's so fresh and fun, but still on the calm and classic side. For Easter I hope to wear these tones. Plus, don't you just love this soft and delicate petal pink velvet mixed in with gold. Yummy! I'm upholstering a sectional for a client in a soft beige velvet. Heaven for your body and your soul...

Hope your Friday is filled with so much love and laughter...  Stay calm and carry on!

summer is near...



Getting ready for summer is definitely a fun, but daunting task... At least for me is is!  You want all new fresh summer clothes... A of course a healthy rocking body! Sometimes you get  50% or even 75% percent of that wish... But what I do know you can achieve is a new Turkish wrap! Oh My Gosh... They're absolutely to die for! We all couldn't stop trying out each wrap in the rooster. I fell in love!!! Plus, the fabulous thing about these wraps are that they can be used as table cloths, beach blankets, baby blanket covers and even bathing suit cover ups. Yes, please!!!!    Stop by and see for yourself... Be prepared for summer!!!!

seeing the light



Onward and upward is my attitude right now... I truly feel the weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Picture this, You've driven through a big snow storm. Every which way you look was solid thick white snow...  And then all of a sudden you see the light from the sky shining through... I'm breathing again! Having that feeling only puts a smile on my face. So I guess it's only natural for me to go towards this calm pallet... I love this feeling. What's your go to colors?

a true blessing!



Saying goodbye to a loved one is always so hard and sometimes extremely unbearable! After losing my father last year, coincidentally one year ago {April}, I felt the world crush down on me... Now losing my grandmother I've taken a step back and started to analyze and feel it differently. I'm not going to say good by to her... I'm going to honor and cherish her like she's sitting on my shoulder all day... Everyday! I know she's another angel with me now. I'm so  very lucky to have her protecting me!  I can talk to her all the time. I've had a lot of loss this year... So I've slightly become numb to negativity. But the weird thing is the moment she passed I felt a release of pressure inside of me. I don't know why, but I'm free and alive again... Please don't think that I'm not sad, I am... But it's a sadness that we're not going to make anymore memories together or hug each day. She lived an amazing life. Hello she was 101 years old. A true blessing! 

Genevieve Eidson, passed Friday, April 4th at 9:30 pm.  She went out with so much grace and style. I truly was so blessed for having her in my life for all of those years. She taught me to keep my head up high when times were tough, keep a smile on my face, always give to others and laugh when you can. Her morals and values were so Strong that I will cherish them and pass them down to my children...

I love you Grandma with all my heart! Can't wait to chat with you in my dreams. I will miss you not sitting in the chair at the rooster... So please make my flowers bloom! I will water you everyday... I love you so much!!!!!!

You were a true blessing in all of our lives... Rest in peace pretty lady!
