Site You Should Visit: Smallable

Oh the cuteness. This is one of the best children's clothing sites I have ever come across. Yes, it's expensive (it's European) and everything has to be converted from euros to dollars (yikes) but it is so worth a look around. Most of these brands can probably be found on U.S. sites to save you a little cash.

Design Board: Out with the Old

Can you guess who this boards is for? If you said my parents, I would be weirded out that you would know that, but you would be correct! The 'rents are freshening things up around these parts.

My mom approached me after seeing a blue velvet sofa in a showroom and she is going for it people! We are talking a complete overhaul. At first she just wanted a sofa. And then our wheels starting turning and, well, it's not just a sofa anymore. And I have come down with serious sofa envy because this thing is going to be amazeballs.

This is the starting point for their den area where everyone hangs out and watches TV. We will do the den, formal living, dining, kitchen, and master bedroom/bathroom.  Their master bathroom is being gutted and taken from 1992 (yikes) to 2014. Everything is getting painted and all new lighting is being installed throughout the house. To say it will be an undertaking it putting it mildly, but we are up for the challenge and I cant wait to get started! We order the sofa on friday and then it's game time.

Naturally, I'll post progress on this ol blog. I am certain my mom will hate me for posting before shots (esp. of the bathroom) but it's all in the name of decorating.

Master Bedroom Reveal

I finished up our master bedroom spruce-up this weekend and I am so excited to share the results! I am so happy with the way it turned out. 

Here is a "before" shot so you can see where we were. I know some of you will say, "But it was nice before!" And no doubt, it was.

But over the last few years my tastes have evolved and changed they way they naturally do. Decorating and design is a constant ebb and flow. What you liked 5 years ago (when I bought the old bedding - a "just married" gift to myself) isn't always what you like now. And then, when we built this house in 2010, I had no idea what my design tastes were and had no direction as to how I wanted to style my home. I just sort of did what everyone else was doing.

Now, I have finally come into my own as far as my decorating style and what I like/don't like. And my matchy-matchy bed/bedding/drapes just wasn't doing it for me anymore. It was feeling too formal, too boring. It was a snooze-fest. When we inherited The Rug, I saw it as a sign for this bedroom to finally get the attention it has needed. Now the bedroom jives with the rest of my house.

I'll give a run down on some of the details this week. Oh! I've linked up this post to The Pink Pagoda's blue and white linking bash! Go check it out, I'm sure there are going to be some fantastic posts! Happy Monday everyone!

Keep on keepin' on...
