I'm excited to have Melaine from My Sweet Savannah. Melaine was one of the first instagram accounts I discovered. I began reading her blog and was in hooked. I love all different design styles. So, it's fun to be inspired by her and what I could a rustic style. Her home is welcoming, cozy and stylish. Her DIY projects are fun and fabulous. So, let's get to know Melaine, shall we? 1.Did you study interior design do you have an interior design background?

Good morning friends! It's a crazy week for me, 2 posts in one week and it's only Tuesday? ;-) I did spend the weekend being obsessive and cleaning the entire house and re-organizing it so that I could get my work load under control and back in order. Now that I'm organized for now I can get some posts together, I hope! I love pictures. I have a photography background and pictures to me say so much. They inspire me, get the wheels in my brain working and make me happy. That's why I really love a top 10

Mornin' friends! I have a fun treat for y'all today. Another guest on my "Guess who's dropping in for coffee" series. It's the insanely talented Sarah Dorsey. Like many of my guests, I discovered her via Instagram, followed her, checked out the blog and couldn't get enough. So, curious to learn more about her and where this great eye for design started, I asked to drop on by. I hope you enjoy this fun read with me! 1. Did you study interior design in college? Yes, I have my MFA in Interior Design from George Washington University. 2. How did

Hey friends! Sorry I've been MIA. I've got a lot on my mind right now. I have a new listing, I have buyers coming in town to do some house shopping and I've got 3 decorating projects that I'm working on. So, I've been on the internet a lot looking at products, houses and inspiration that I thought was worth sharing. (Oh and of course with this warm weather you know I've been doing a little online shopping too) So, let's commence with Top 10 Tuesday shall we? I've been thinking about our playroom that needs serious love. And

Morning friends! I'm excited to share another reveal with you. This reveal is from the home of where I created the Blue and White dining room. Their entrance was a blank slate. So, I was allowed to do with it what I pleased. I really wanted to put in a settee or some type of seating but I could not find anything that suited the space. I had this beautiful piece from Home Decorators. I have been stalking the Reflections three piece cabinet for a long time. It always looked so pretty online, but I have to

Morning friends! Hope this Tuesday is treating you well! I had high hopes for a post yesterday, but as you can see I failed. We got back into town late from a wonderful weekend of snowboarding and skiing in Boone, NC. The boys were in ski school and I'm so proud of my 2, almost 3 year old for skiing. It was really a great trip with my family. Anyway, so I'm hoping that tomorrow I can get it together and post an entry before and after for you. In the meantime, let's peruse some fun things I

Good morning friends! I'm so excited to get back into my "guess who's dropping in for coffee" series. Today I have a very talented guest who is a great decorator, stylish fashion blogger and who can put together one heck of a party. It is the sweet and darling Courtney from A Thoughtful Place. Come grab your morning beverage of choice and join me for a fun read! 1. What did you do prior to creating A Thoughtful Place? I taught fifth grade for almost ten years. I adored teaching and lived at the school. However, after I had my

Morning friends! I'm excited to have finally gotten it together and have photographed one of the three completed projects so far! I received an email from the owner of this home asking about my design/decorating services. We chatted a little via email, I came to her home and she hired me on the spot. It's a sweet newly married couple who just moved into this home. The home is lovely and has so much potential so I was ready to take it on. The previous owner had the standard builder things, beige walls, oil rubbed light

Morning friends! It's Tuesday and schools are closed here in Charleston! It's going to be a long day in the Edwards household with kids running around like wild banshees. On that note, I'm going to take a quick mental break and show you all some pretty things that have caught my eye lately. I have a client who has WAY too many built-ins. I recently suggested doing something similar to this to help cover them and make them a more useful storage area.
