Happy Saturday to you! What...only 15 days until Christmas.....No way!
Yep...way.
AND..... the winner of the giveaway is Michelle from
My Notting Hill! I love Michelle's blog....she actually featured me as a designer when I first started blogging. I did not even know enough to mention it on my blog. I was pretty green back then! The good thing is she often comes to Atlanta [she lives in DC] on business and we have gotten to meet and have dinner. Hopefully she forgave me for my bad blogging manners.
Went to Scott's on Thursday...boy it was a slow day there. I know it is the holiday season and not too many people are buying things for their home. What....I don't get that???? Pictures soon.
I am working on a whole house renovation so I thought I would show you my plan for the kitchen and family room.
Here is a picture of what the kitchen looked like about 2 weeks ago.
The cabinets and trim are painted Creamy by Sherwin Williams. The walls are Ben Moore OC 8 Elephant Tusk. The island is painted Ben Moore HC 142 Stratton Blue.
Here are the fabrics we are using.
How come I always manage to try for the blue first. I am sneaky like that :)
This is the same house that this runner is going in.
The bannister is going to be painted SW Iron Ore. It is a wonderful dark dark gray. Hopefully the inside front door will be painted also. Here was my convincing photo to that effect...
Makes SUCH a difference!
Thank you all for the great response to my benches! I keep going in the bedroom to take a peek at them....someone asked the name of the fabric and it's Riad by Windsor Smith for Kravet. I totally cheated and had them recovered.
Last thing...I asked a friend of mine what she was up to this weekend and she said she had
Cavalia. I looked at her and cocked my head...."what is that? A religious celebration or something". She about fell out. No it is a production like a circus but with horses. Whatever....how am I supposed to know that.
Anybody else heard of it?
Anyway, like the rest of you, I have laundry, bed making, and grocery shopping to get done today. Need to wrap this up.
