Going to try to get back into being better about blogging
.....I have been so busy
with 3 kids...2 in travel
sports and one busy preschooler,
keeping up with housework,
lots of design jobs and
keeping my antique space
full and merchandised....
and then we decided to get a puppy.
Besides I am so technically
challenged that every time
I post it is truly a
miracle that I do it.
As an example,
I struggle each night
setting my alarm clock and
turning the alarm off
every morning....
not lying...sad
My husband actually ordered
me the world's simplest
alarm clock for Christmas.
I have some mental block
with things that have buttons...
we all have or strengths
and weaknesses.
Gets frustrating to download things
so it stops me in my tracks
...especially when I see
I need to tackle a big
pile of laundry
or help a kid with homework,
cook dinner,
or e mail a client back etc.....
So anyway...going to try to get
back into it and also want to
show the rest of the tour
from my renovation.
Here's a little something for today....
I was given this sweet glass cabinet from a client. She was tossing it and I took it and played with it all over my house.
It was white and kelly green on the inside which I really liked, but I
wanted to dress it up a bit,
so I painted it cream and
brown in the inside.
Then I added an orange
glass knob from Anthroplogie.
I have a thing for vintage cream pottery and gathered up all my favorite pieces from around the house to put inside.
I always tell clients to put like things together(frames, books, pottery etc)...feels less like clutter around the house.
I also like how the cream pottery would stand out against the dark background.
Think about what items you have
around the house that could
give you an instant collection.
