Projects All Around Me!

As many of you know, I can never sit still for too long. This "sickness" as some family members refer to it, has morphed into a barrage of projects. Some of these projects are small, some are bigger, some are still in the "planning" mode, which sometimes creates and even better looking mess! 

I am happy to say, though, that my office is now complete..... I simply love the color on the walls. A shout out to my friend Carly, for sharing her color choices with me, as this was THE color we were looking for. 






 I even found the perfect spot for the Roman Lady I inherited from my grandparents. Her counterpart was broken by the kitty about a year ago, and we are still trying to fix her. For now though, the solo lady has found her perch.....

And my office desk wouldn't be complete without a Pottery Barn knock off - only mine is written in Italian, instead of French.......

Now it is time to move to the back of the house. My lonely french doors need one of these signs - don't you agree?

Until tomorrow..... All the best...........

Busy Days Ahead

So the painting is starting to come along. The living room is under much construction (as you can see). We have decided on wood blinds for the windows, so that will be another trip to Lowe's or Home Depot this weekend. And then finishing the VERY LARGE MESS I've created. I just love the color though! Warm, but soothing, not too harsh. Will post more pics this weekend, as things start to come together........



And before I go, just wanted to share my plans for Easter Sunday dessert - I've given up chocolate for Lent, and it's starting to affect my brain. I dream in chocolate now! 


Just too yummy!!!
