Sugar and Spice
I open my inbox this morning and what do I see? An e-mail from baby GAP with the cutest little girls dressed in the cutest outfits! I really love having a girl, and now that she’s mobile and turning into a little girl (no longer a squirming little baby), there are so many options for adorable outfits! I love the eclectic, non-matching, a little wild looks for little...
Read MoreSorry for the mess…
…but I’m messing with the blog a little. So if you’re reading this and the page looks CRAZY – my apologies. I get my themes from the selection at Elegant Themes and I love them. Now if I could only get them to work the way I want…

Hello. So…whatcha been up to? Oh, I’ve been enjoying the holidays…a little too much! My December stats for the ol’ blog are stinkin’ big time, but can you blame me when this is who I’ve been hanging out with?? And Glenn has also been off for vacation. And while I’m sure most wives would be able to get MORE done on vacation with him off...
Read More{Giveaway} Merry Christmas from me! …and Rollip.com!
Oh my…5 days and counting until Santa’s here! I still have a few gifts to find, many to wrap (as soon as Santa aka the UPS man aka my father-in-law delivers them!) and many to give! Giving is the best part, I think! So as a gift to you (and me!) the generous folks over at Rollip.com are offering a select number of my readers a chance at testing out their website – yippee! ...
Read MoreVelcro, I’m Over You (aka Cloth Diaper Update)
As my little growin’ girl is now 16 months old, I thought I’d share how things are going on the cloth diapering front. I posted my last update/how-I-do-things guide here in February. Now that I’ve been using them for over a year now, I’ve learned a few new tricks and tips to keep things running smoothly. To do a little summarizing from before, here is what I...
Read More{Color Therapy} Tapestry Beige
I love when I find out what paint color is on the walls in a room that I like (ok, love). And before you start dozing off because it says “Beige” in the title, check out these photos of Benjamin Moore’s OC-32 Tapestry Beige. It’s an off-white on the gray-green side. I love how it looks with the white trim, green bench, brown frames and dark floors. The...
Read MoreMy Tree Trimming Trick!
Is ribbon! I have used the same red ribbon on my tree year after year for about 5 years now and I never get tired of how it looks. I also used to use a white one with a red, glittery candy cane pattern but lately I’ve stuck to the solid for a more sophisticated look. Get the thick, wired stuff (ours is from Costco) and weave different lengths of pieces around the tree on top of the...
Read MoreDear Santa…
I believe in you. So can you please wrap this up and put it under the tree for me? Thanks! Love, Lindsay. This is seriously the cheapest dishwasher on the Home Depot website. I figure ANYTHING is better than not having one at this point. Plus the rest of my appliances are white. And at only $219 I’m really hoping Santa can fit it on his sleigh (I know, I know – installation...
Read MoreThe Big Reveal
Wow…have you missed me? If you’re reading this, I guess it means you might! I have been working my fanny off, but am able to spend a little more time blogging today, and I finally took all sorts of photos to share! So I have to say that I am LOVING our new set-up. I hope our pool table is enjoying his freezing cold new home in the garage, because I don’t think he can come...

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!
