{Color Therapy} Navy and gold
I know these are supposed to be on Thursdays, but I’m practicing patience with my posts! I am trying to put a lot more time into them so that you will actually enjoy what I have to say, and will want to come back! So here is some color therapy for your weekend! This week’s “Color Therapy” is inspired by the portfolio of one of my Twitter contacts, Tobi Fairley. I am...
Read MoreCreature Comforts: Making Me Happy
Here’s some TGIT loveliness for you! The weekend is almost here! I was checking out the new posts at one of my favorite blogs and Ez posted this video for “Her Morning Elegance” by Oren Lavie. I’ve never heard the song, but now I am hooked – and the music video is sooo cute and creative. Enjoy! Ez likes the scarf scene and underwater part. I really like when...

Read MoreA Man's Idea of Decorating (aka My New Side Tables)
Remember how I keep talking about my red accents I want?? Well, I was finally able to redeem my IKEA gift cards! I was in desperate need of some side tables for my living room, so I thought I would try out the “Lack” series for some Scandinavian modern design touches to my space. I have very little white in my living room, though, so I don’t think anyone would recognize my...

Read More{Friday Flickr Inspiration}
Here is a little wintery, but spring-is-right-around-the-corner inspiration for your Friday! I hope your weekend weather isn’t keeping you inside (the same goes for me!). I’ll be attending my niece’s play, taking our dogs on a walk and possibly refinishing our pistachio green bathtub to a nice, clean, sparkly white. Ugh…and work on our taxes. And sew some curtains for...

Read More{Color Therapy Thursdays}
This is a new feature of Likely Design that I would like to call “Color Therapy Thursdays.” I am always on the lookout for interesting and “why didn’t I think of that?” color combinations so this is a way to catalog any neat ones that I find. Color is a difficult and scary thing for some people, but I LOVE it! The color you choose is so important, and it can...
Read MoreCloth Diapering Guide
If you haven’t figured it out already, I have a 6 month old daughter with my wonderful husband, Glenn. She is a complete joy, and I really love the, well, love, that she has brought into our lives. She is amazing, and growing up right before our eyes! Anyway, I have been successfully and almost-exclusively cloth diapering her since she was 2 months old. Even at the babysitter…aka...
Read More10 Things That Make Me Happy
In honor of Domino Magazine, my favorite shelter magazine, and the fact that they’re no longer in publication (I just finished reading their last issue this morning), I am going to re-create some of their great features here on my blog! One feature I really love is called “10 Things That Make Me Happy,” and it is always on the very last page of the magazine. They always...
Read MoreAbout Me
I'm an interior designer, but I live in the country. I like it that way. I'm also a firefighter's wife, new mom and a new homeowner and I like that even better. A close second is a pretty and affordable space...and I mean a REALLY affordable space. Because I believe good design can be for EVERYONE!
