I Speak With A Lot Of Accents...

 

I believe in using accent pieces to decorate in my home. We aren't big on painting projects and buying large pieces of furniture don't seem to happen as often as I'd like in our household. But I love flipping through magazines, going to decorator showhouses, traveling to consignment shops and antique malls. When the weather warms up I hope to start estate and yard saleing. My friends are big on thrift stores and I have to admit I've found a few interesting pieces myself.

I love this color...

I collect spheres...

 

 

I love different ideas...

unique storage...

cool cushions...

 

 

mirrors and lamps - lights and brights...

 

chests with personality...

 

and oh, these ottomans!

plentiful pillows!

 

So I roam around when time allows to places like HomeGoods, Marshalls, Lowes, TJ Maxx, Ross, estate sales, antique stores, Lucketts, Chartreuse, Joss & Main, Pier I, yard sales...

you name it!

 

I love seeing your ideas too!

So shout 'em out!

 

Use your imagination, wild side and sense of humor -

be YOU all the way!

 



And Where Did January Go? Rebuilding the Jersey shore

Where in the world did January go?

Hey everyone.... I'm not lost! Where has all the time gone in my life and this busy world of our's! I blink my eyes and it's almost February!
I've been busy with work, designing greeting cards, redecorating, shopping, enjoying the holidays and preparing for bilateral knee replacements....

Yup, no padding between my knees - not the way it's supposed to be. 

But, I have begun to redecorate - that's a good thing! So I'm looking for the beach cottage items I cannot live without, skimming through magazines, Etsy, Ebay and Pinterest. Not exactly roughing it! I visit thrift stores, antique shops, estate sales....ohhhhh so much fun!

collecting Ironstone...

seashore shore stuff...

new artwork and fun family photos...

adding Robin's Egg Blue, white black, sand tones.

I'll try to be more faithful... but I am surviving Winter - not my fav! And praying that my beloved Jersey Shore will someday be put back together again. Jenn

after Hurricane Sandy...

prayers for N.J. .... and rebuilding.
