Isn't funny how people who are creative at one thing, seem to be creative at many things? The people of Ferm Living also have a cool blog that I just discovered. (Excuse me if this is not news to you). I am completely infatuated w/ this idea of wallpapering the inside of a lampshade w/ this amazing wallpaper. Just think of the possibilities!! Sconces, giant pendants....I'm so excited thinking about it! Now I just have to decide which pattern I like best. What's your pick?

The snow was a few days late, but Liam didn't seem to mind! Especially when he was able to catch some snow flakes on his tongue. The only part he wasn't counting on was that snow is REALLY COLD! I guess I forgot to mention that part:)But, it is nice to be back home, in balmy Houston.

Recently, Apartment Therapy has been kind enough to sign me up for frequent emails. I'm not completely sure how I feel about that, but I did enjoy seeing there post about the best L.A. house tours. The hard part is deciding which one I like the best. So difficult! The first home belongs to photographer Sharon Montrose. Her attention to detail is amazing. Nothing is out of place, but it still feels quirky and fun. I love everything.
So, my second choice it the home of Sherry and Miguel. Although, it is filled with a lot of vintage furniture like the first home, it is much more free-spirited. I especially love the "Delicious" sign in the kitchen. I totally agree that this house is indeed, very delicious:)

These ornaments are so yummy looking, I don't blame anyone for giving them a nibble. Found via Kate Sutton's Etsy store. (P.S. I like her blog too!)

Just so all of you don't think I'm a total Scrooge, I thought I would post some lovely Christmas photos.So, any of you who read this blog regularly know I have to keep it simple.
I've always felt that simple and natural elements at Christmas are so inspiring and special.
Who can decorate better than nature?

Every year at this time I begin to feel like the Grinch. Mostly because I really dislike Christmas music! It just really drives me crazy! Usually its so boring and wimpy. To make matters worse, people start playing earlier and earlier every year. Now, before you decide that my heart is a few sizes too small; let me explain myself. I have a very good reason for disliking Christmas music. You see, I have to admit an ugly family secret...my family liked listening to Christmas music year round. Oh the horror!! In May or September, one could often hear Deck the Halls or Silent Night and so on. I told all of you it was terrible! So if you aren't horrified enough! Who were the most popular artists who sang Christmas music all year? Only people like Perry Como, Engelbert Humperdinck, Anne Murrey...must I go on. My stomach gets tied up in knots every time I think about it. (For those of you younger than I am, and you don't know who these people are...be grateful!) As you may imagine, as soon as I had a choice; I avoided all Holiday music whenever possible. The funny thing is that now that I am a mom, I find myself wanting to teach Liam all the kid favorites. So last year I started to come to terms w/ my aversion. What I started doing was collecting Christmas music that I can tolerate, by artists I like in styles of music I like. Funny enough, now I find myself listening to "My Christmas Music" quite a bit. I decided I would even share it w/ all of you who may feel the way I do. I posted my list on the sidebar, available for those who want to hear it, but I'm not forcing it on anyone. If you want, check it out. (Be forewarned, I have an affinity for Rockabilly).building houses

Be Honest! How many of you haven't imagined living in one of these amazing buildings? I have ever since I first saw Breakfast at Tiffany's. This beautiful place was designed by Meyer Davis Studio of New York. Be sure and check out their amazing portfolio.building houses

Hi everyone! I'm trying to get up and running again.I decided to do something that
will make me feel better.
I'm starting a new series called, "Sunday Abstraction".
Why abstraction?
For one thingbecause I love the definition of the word...
Abstraction is the thought process wherein ideas are distanced from objects.
It uses a strategy of simplification, wherein formerly concrete details
are left ambiguous, vague, or undefined.
So.These posts won't mean anything
They are just ambiguous images and thoughts.
I'm including this video that I am currently OBSESSED with!!
