Giving Thanks

This is the time of year set aside to contemplate, ponder and express our thanks to those who make our lives wonderful. To reflect on the blessings we have received. Many people choose to post a gratitude a day through out the month. I have decided to post just once regarding the things, blessings, and people for which I have gratitude. I am grateful for my faith, my Savior and His redemptive power. For a FREE country that allows me and you to worship how we choose. For those that have given their lives or are willing to, to protect those freedoms. For my incredible family, husband and children...for their love, strength, and support. For my amazing, crazy fun, beautiful, strong and loving grandchildren. For parents and brother who loved and taught me so much. For friends and associates that also bring joy and happiness to me. For clients that enrich my life. I have blessings beyond measure and certainly cannot mention them all here. I will strive to live a more thankful life. To be more conscience of my blessings and better at expressing gratitude to those around me. My thanks to you for stopping by and spending some time here. May you live a blessed life. ~L~

Is this you?




If you are as passionate about decorating as I am, it IS you! It doesn't matter whether you live in a mansion or a small rental, YOU make it beautiful AND yours. If you worry about what others might think of your décor, STOP! That is way too much pressure. The definition of beauty is different for everyone. If it is what you love and it works for you then it is PERFECT! So move forward, live with items that you adore, and enjoy life!

Happy Friday the 13th!

Many folks don't like Friday the 13th. You know, the ooohhh it will be a bad day. But I always find it to be a great day. So what's that all about? I think that any (every) day can be a great day IF you expect it to be. Does that mean that difficult, bad and frustrating things don't happen? Well of course they do, its just that if you plan on a good day, it is easier to deal with those events. So Happy Friday the 13th! Have a great day!!!

Color me HAPPY!

When you are planning a space you should consider the purpose of the space and who will inhabit the space. And by ALL means get their input! When I do a consultation with a client one of the most important questions I ask them is "what colors to you love and which colors do you dislove" (I think I just made up that word!). It is useless to spend time creating a idea board and source list if they dislove the color! TIP: when creating a space, either by yourself or with a decorator{me!}consider the meaning of color and how it relates to what you are trying to accomplish.

MUCH better! What do you think?

Color the mini series

I have had so many requests for this post, so here ya go! Room color can influence our mood, our thoughts, and our feelings. Consider this when you are creating your space. Color trends will always come and go, so don't spend too much time there. Your home will be perfect if it reflects the likes and personalities of the people living there. You can add a couple of trendy accents to make the space feel fresh. H ere are some additional color thoughts. RED amps up a room’s energy level. It can raise blood pressure,and heart rate. Probably NOT what you want in a child's room.

ORANGE tends to create excitement,and is a bold an energetic color. 


 

GREEN is a very restful color for the eye. Some believe that it is a stress relieving color.

      

YELLOW is a happy colors. It works well in kitchens and dining rooms. It is an energy color.



BLUE is a calming color. It is perfect for a bedroom and bathrooms. It brings a relaxing and serene
feeling to the space. Blue is my favorite color.



What is your favorite color?
