Secret Gardens...

Yesterday I attended the Greenwich Garden Education Center annual Garden Tour. It was FABULOUS!!! The homes themselves were of course GORGEOUS but the landscaping and gardens were breath taking! Some were lavish, some were understated...but they were all beautiful! I will post pictures once I get them up on-line...but in the meantime, enjoy some photos of last year's Garden Tour. I must say though...this year's tour out-did past years.

June 9th...

Today is my 28th birthday. So close to 30...a little too far off from 25. I've got a good job, an even better family and friends and a pretty awesome guy. 28 is going to be alright :-) Enjoy with me some images from our old friend Domino Magazine....and be happy today.

Time to reflect...

Happy Monday everyone! I don't know about you all (I really wish I could say y'all here b/c it fits so appropriately....but I don't want people accusing me of being from Boston and asking why I use words such as y'all. OK I digress) but I am exhausted from the weekend! The wedding was fabulous and couldn't have been more fun!!! But back to posting...

I find that I every time I move I seem to collect more mirrors. Mirrors are great for everything from giving the allusion of more space to a room or just adding a decorative accent to any space! A neat trick that we've all seen in various mags is finding antique or just plain different frames and then adding a glassed mirror to it. How do you all think mirrors fit best in a home? Any tricks you want to share...let us know! :-) Here are a few images that I liked when surfing the www.....

Last minute add...I just found this image on pink wallpaper - perfect for today's post and love this look!!!
I am in love with the mirror top row Left. I just don't know where I would use it!? I have been contemplating using a mirror like the one bottom row Right and top row Middle for my entryway when you walk in the door...is it too intrusive?

This image is from a renovation story on Southern Living. They didn't want to disrupt the window in the bathroom...so they added a vanity with surrounding mirrors. So cool and gives the feeling of yet another window and so much space - love it!

Jealous...

I am sorry...but this is most definitely bigger than my kitchen! I love all the shelving...so organized! You never have to move things around to look for it (like I ALWAYS am doing)! And I love this ladder - very cute idea!
