Guest Room

I love blue and white decor, its so calming. These are photos from Carolyne Roehm's guest room shown in Veranda Magazine.

Norman Rockwell

Norman Rockwell is my favorite painter. His pictures captured so much emotion.

Sometimes you just get stuck!

Outdoor Rooms

I love this time of year when the weather starts to warm up from the cold winter and the garden is all green with the flowers blooming. Its a great time go outside and just relax. Here are some great outdoor rooms for inspiration. Some outdoor room photos can also be found at http://www.countryhome.com/, http://www.sunset.com/ also check out this great site with lots of inspiring decorating ideas: http://theinspiredroom.net/

Heat Wave

Its been so hot here, in the 90's and its only April. What happened to April Showers brings May flowers? Ice Cream always cools you down on a hot day!

Queen Bee Shop, Snohomish Washington

If you ever have some extra time while in the Seattle area, stop by the small quaint town of Snohomish. It has some of the greatest antique and gift shops. One of my favorite shops ever is the Queen Bee. Here is the link: http://www.shopqueenbee.com/home/index.cfm Don't miss the Garden photo link, click on a photo to enlarge the picture.

Happy Easter!

Easter Care Package

The kids wont be able to come home for Easter so I made a care package to send them. I love to make cones decorated in different ways. Here are some Easter cones filled with candy for Catherine's Sorority Sisters.

Flower Puppy in Basket

I made this basket arrangment out of floral greens and carnations. Next time I will use a larger basket so that I can add some flowers on the side but all in all I think it came out great. My friends daughter has been volunteering a lot of time at the local SPCA so I thought it would be a great gift for her.

Holy Cow!

Dont you hate it when people take your picture when your eating?

No one loves you like your Mom!
