kate has always done this look so well too.

GIVEAWAY- interior style

Enter to win this fabulous book! Its so good, I bought me one to.

Interior Style: How To Use Color Throughout Your Home.

It holds fabulous photos with the great Benjamin Moore paint on the walls. Lots of paint information that only BM could give. Just page, after page, of good color, and inspiration. The good thing about this book is it has tons of photos and tell which BM paint color was used. Amazon is selling this book for $24.00

GOOD LUCK!

Butchers Block

Do you, or have you seen butcher block countertops in person? I recently saw Genevieve design a kitchen on a budget using this option and it looked great. I never thought of this as being an option before, and it looks rather great in my opinion.

Are you open to this?

Z Gallerie does it again…..

Z Gallerie cant get any better…But it did. Now they have added these lights, and other newbies. I want a tripod light so bad, and here is one for only $299. I only wished they still were offering the 20% off sale. I guess that means things are looking up for the company which is great…

studio-tripod-floor-lamp We were looking at this the other day as an option for the black room. I love this, and thinks it would bring something different. 022026452industrial-pendant-lamprose-pillow-ivory

I am all about planning this year. I am going to revamp my inspiration book and get started since its 2010. I need a new sofa for my den. I mean the sofa we have now has been flipped on, jumped on, slept on, eaten on…you name it. The kids this year will be 10 and 13 so I am hoping they are growing out of the destruction phase. I have pictures that my sister took of my son walking on my daughters back and she slept on the sofa. I mean come on for my sake. I think I want something tufted, but not formally. This looks casual enough to welcome guests, and good conversation. Since the kids sleep in their rooms now, I think its pretty safe to say, this wouldn't be used for naps.

I was happy to see an acrylic chair in person that was not the real thing. Why? Because I wanted to see if the quality was that of the original, or close. And well Z did a great job. It held my heavy ass body up, so it works just fine.

XOXOX,

I actually liked this outfit. The skirt was a little short. You cant really tell much in this photo because I pulled it down a bit. But when I sat down, I had to be sure all was tucked away.

What’s Next?

Here is the next big project up for the Styles'...FLOORS! Walls...my goodness so much. My house is a wreck right now. I have things all over the place in this house. Projects that are not done, and items that need to be moved back in the rooms...But 2010 is the year to get it done.DSC_0358These floors are on their way out! Its time to send laminate on its merry little way. Below is the chosen one. CHOCOLATE!DSC_0149_01 Our kitchen has a skylight. But the lighting is BAD when I cook at night. Recessed lighting here I come. We have been getting quotes out the wahzzo for stuff. I am thinking of doing either 4 or 6 lights. I looooove lights. This was suppose to be done yesterday, but the contractor is doing A and B, and trying to handle C. So we are going to give him until Friday to get this going, or we are moving on the next one.DSC_0357

What are you working on? And more snow coming..damn, enough.
