Love blogging, love coffee!

I was at a client's house today and she showed me a print she had just received in the mail.  When she pulled out the I Love You Blogs and Coffee print I said "I know Made by Girl!"   I asked myself why I have waited so long to order one of those for myself!!  So as soon as I got home I placed an order.  I have the perfect spot in my kitchen.

A little something I'm working on

I am putting together some ideas for a client's kitchen nook and this is what I've come up with so far.  Still a work in progress but I'm in love with the fabric and I think it will look great on the kitchen chairs.  The chairs will actually be cane backed chairs but this gives you the idea.

Equestrian chic

Lately I have been drawn to beautiful paintings or photography of horses.  I may have more of an appreciation because I was lucky enough to own a horse when I was young but I have never felt the urge to display it in my home.  Now I am reconsidering!  I thought these were lovely and would add a really graphic element to any room.

Perfection

I am in love with this bathroom!  The tile, the feather pendant, the tub.  It is absolutely stunning.

Back from South Pender Island

Just got back from a little boat trip over to South Pender Island and had a great time!  We docked the boat at a place called Poet's Cove and spent some time reading, drinking good wine, swimming and touring the Island.  The kids thoroughly enjoyed it and so did the adults!

I think Avery made .25 cents that day, she was thrilled!
