Open House Sunday

 built 1985
This house is on Habersham Road in Atlanta and described as a Tuscan Style Home.
 I love the overgrown look of the front of the house. Like this home has been forgotten.
 Inside, you can see it definitely has not been forgotten.
 I'd say this is Modern Tuscan Style. There are amazing pieces of art throughout this home!

 I'm in love  with this kitchen.
The ceiling beams are awesome.

 This home is refined but comfortable. 
I adore that window nook above with the precious sconces on either side.
 This little punch of orange velvet on the chairs just brings this room to life.
And what about that landscape?
Like I said....grat art in this home.
 Lots of windows in this room...
 check out that horse painting. Love that thing!
 What a dining space! I love that you can see the gardens through all the windows surrounding.
You can just step out to the patio fro this room.
simple but beautiful bedroom
 I'm not crazy about the tub in this bathroom but love everything else.
 very elegant
 Here is the backyard patio
 Such a great spot!
 a little pea gravel adds to the wonderful textures of the garden


Out back.... a tiny guest room
I'd be happy sleeping here...that is for sure.

Make it a Beauty!

So last week I told you about the roses I got in the mail from 
the Bouqs.com
in exchange for a little post on my blog about the flowers.
Well, I was very happy to give a rave review.
The roses came on Wednesday via Fed Ex and I photographed them 
on Friday. They looked fantastic...very fresh.
But when Wednesday rolled around this week and they still 
looked super great...I thought "Hey, I better give another review!"
Here it is Friday again...and a week and two days from receiving my
roses...they still look better than many I've bought locally.
So I snapped a few photos to show you.
Usually, when I get roses...I'm lucky if they last a day or two.
These are the freshest roses I've ever received!
I've never had roses last this long...ever.

And you still have time to order for Valentine's Day!

I picked up that cute little tray with my words to live by
last week when out shopping with Mom.

It's Ground Hog Day!

and Repeat
 It's Ground Hog Day!
 Currently I feel just like Bill Murray in the movie.
(one of my all time favorite movies)
 I pinned these photos to send to a client at work.
 She has a beautiful old sofa that she wants to recover and needs some inspiration.
 I remembered seeing this jewel.
She'll recover the antique sofa in a neutral and then we'll do new furnishings in lots of colors
to surround it.

Fun project!

Yesterday at work I overheard a customer say...
"I wouldn't say we are doing neutrals in that room but more an absence of color".

Huh?

Sometimes I question...am I insane or the only sane one?

And if the world is insanely crazy...I guess you better just get on board with the crazies.
