Featured Friday {Emily A. Clark}

Happy Friday All!
I am totally ready for the weekend, how about you? It has been a crazy week! I just got back from helping my parents pack up their home that they have owned for 30 years. It is bittersweet because they will be moving down south close to me! Actually only a mile from me! I am so excited! Isn't family the best?!

So that is my excuse for not posting much this week. I have a lot of pictures ready to take over the web for next week!! Stay Tuned!

On a exciting note, I was featured on Emily A. Clark today! She helped me pick my front door color and loves it just as much as I do.

If you haven't been on her blog before, you MUST check it out! She is one of my favorite decorators and I would consider her style a lot like mine. Thanks Emily for the Feature today!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Front Door Reveal

I know all you lovelies have been clicking and refreshing your screens for days now! hehe

For those of you that are new to my blog you can read about my paint options for my front door here. We had a big blog vote and the paint color that won was (click here).

However, I decided I was brave but not Peacock brave! So my final decision was Calypso Blue!

It took me a couple of days to really live with it, but now I love it! It is quite the change from plain ole Black!

And...a little Before and After....

What do you think? Crazy or Totally Fun?

My Weekend {According to Instagram}

Yes it is a fine Monday morning! The sun is shining through my front window and the flowers I bought myself this weekend are smiling at me. I am ready for a new week!

Here are some glimpses into what I was up to this weekend:

Bought some flowers for myself from Trader Joes!

Celebrated Cinco De Mayo with a Pina Colada and.....

....Homemade Nachos! Delicious!

Had some major rain this weekend! There was some serious flooding in our front yard!

Spray painted some frames gold! Can't wait to show you where I am putting them!

Relaxed Sunday morning with a certain someone on my lap! 

(aka Chatterbox)

Yummy Breakfast

Had our first ever bonfire in our new fire pit our parents bought us for Christmas!

And last, but certainly not least......I finished the front door!! 

Can you guess which color I picked?

More photos of the front door to come later today! It is quite a change!

How was your weekend? Cheers to Monday!

Designer Crush {Amie Corley}

Has it really been one week since I posted about my Front Door color? Where has the time gone?

Well you are so patient and will just have to be a little more patient because I can't show you yet! I know... I know you want to know the color I picked. To be honest, I have the paint but it has been so dang hot around here that I was afraid the paint would bubble and it wouldn't turn out that great. So...it is suppose to be a little cooler this weekend and I will give you a little show on Monday.

Here are how Your votes turned out:
First place: Peacock Blue
Second Place: (TIED) Wythe Blue & Calypso Blue
Third Place: Kensington Green

Come back on Monday to see which color I decided on!


Okay on to a new Designer Crush!! I found this picture the other day on Pinterest:

I am in love with the colors and how fun yet sophisticated the space feels. This room as well as the rooms below were designed by a Amie Corley. She is a Missouri Based Interior Designer and if you live in that area and are in need of design help, you must contact her! She always adds a little of the unexpected to each room, yet keeps it chic and classy.

What do you think? Love her work? I sure do! I can't wait to see some more of her designs in the future.
Okay loves...have a Fabulous Friday!
